By his reckoning, great poets are those who evade a feeling of belatedness — that there is, and can be, nothing new under the sun — by creatively misreading their mighty predecessors whose influence would otherwise be stifling.

As Roca mentions elsewhere, perhaps some things could have been done differently in the context of Salcedo's intervention; for example, the inclusion of the peace tents and the belatedness of the action, which could have come earlier and even before the plebiscite in order to awaken a sometimes dormant public.

Prikryl's references to earlier authors and artists, allusions to the Soviet Union's collapse and other more glancing gestures — a "politician who died young," an ode describing a Buster Keaton film as "a sort of human finale, if not the very last absolutely necessary / movie" — imbue "The After Party" with, appropriately enough, a sense of belatedness, both literary and historical.

And it is here that we arrive, perhaps, at a final irony: If Kafka's fictions have often been read as parables of belatedness, non-arrival and perpetual deferment, there are other ways — most notably, the genuine, if fraught, multiculturalism of his literary imagination and conception of selfhood — in which he still remains ahead of us, pointing a direction forward.

"In an age otherwise characterized by belatedness and alienated repetition, his whole project was to return art to its origins, to rediscover the aura of shared moments and places, and to reinvest experience with a sacred meaning that the instant culture of capitalism had removed from it," Sperling sensitively observes of Berger's famous 1972 television program Ways of Seeing, in which he spoke about canonical works of art in a personable way.

73 Hubbard considers that the poem, particularly the description of the comet, alludes to Lucan.Hubbard, T.K. The Pipes of Pan (1998) p. 161f.

There exist inherent difficulties in articulating the traumas of the Holocaust. The art created between direct and post-generational participants redefines notions of “memory-as-border.” In other words, understanding the notions of “border” becomes complex in relation to firsthand and secondhand trauma. One example of this thought is how the experiences of those directly involved in the Holocaust effect their offspring? Marianne Hirsch describes this phenomenon as “postmemory.” Postmemory most specifically describes the relationship of children of survivors of cultural or collective trauma to the experiences of their parents, experiences that they “remember” only as the narratives and images with which they grew up, but that are so powerful, so monumental, as to constitute memories in their own right. The term “postmemory” is meant to convey its temporal and qualitative difference from survivor memory, its secondary, or second-generation memory quality, its basis in displacement, its vicariousness and belatedness. The work of postmemory defines the familial inheritance and transmission of cultural trauma.
