Modern and Contemporary Poetry and Poetics Modern and Contemporary Poetry and Poetics Series Editor David Herd University of Kent Canterbury, UK Founded by Rachel Blau DuPlessis and continued by David Herd, Modern and Contemporary Poetry and Poetics promotes and pursues topics in the burgeoning feld of 20th and 21st century poetics. Critical and scholarly work on poetry and poetics of interest to the series includes: social loca- tion in its relationships to subjectivity, to the construction of authorship, to oeuvres, and to careers; poetic reception and dissemination (groups, movements, formations, institutions); the intersection of poetry and the- ory; questions about language, poetic authority, and the goals of writing; claims in poetics, impacts of social life, and the dynamics of the poetic career as these are staged and debated by poets and inside poems. Since its inception, the series has been distinguished by its tilt toward experimental work – intellectually, politically, aesthetically. It has consistently published work on Anglophone poetry in the broadest sense and has featured critical work studying literatures of the UK, of the US, of Canada, and Australia, as well as eclectic mixes of work from other social and poetic communities. As poetry and poetics form a crucial response to contemporary social and political conditions, under David Herd’s editorship the series will continue to broaden understanding of the feld and its signifcance.

It examines the poetry of work and the work that poetry does in a highly original, theoretically sophisticated and ana- lytically nuanced manner. The essays engage with work and labour across a range of poetries and constituencies and provide a timely address to the place of work in the context of a post-work future and the privatised dig- ital market. It is likely to be seen as a major, paradigm-shifting work in relation to contemporary poetry.” —Robert Hampson, Professor of English, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK, and author of Seaport (2008) “To think poetry and work together is to question poetry’s standing both against and as work, to hypothesize what poetry itself might be in the world of those who wish to end all we have hitherto known as labor. The essays in this collection engage fearlessly with the permutations, consequences and destructive capacities of this questioning. They repre- sent a new generation—perhaps, we hope, the last generation—of those who will even speak the words poetry and work as if they were commen- surate. That the book speaks to such a hope is the highest possible form of recommendation.” —Anne Boyer, Associate Professor, Kansas City Art Institute, USA, and author of A Handbook of Disappointed Fate (2018) and Garments Against Women (2015) vii viii PRAISE FOR POETRY AND WORK “In a time when there is virtually no subjectivity that hasn’t found its ‘voice,’ no ‘topic’ that hasn’t been duly treated, no ‘issue’ that’s not been confronted, the concept and reality of work in poetics remains elusive at best; at worst, a near censorship of it reigns. But upon close examination, it becomes clear that overtly fushing out the phenome- non of work from aesthetic acts, embarrasses aesthetic discourse in gen- eral. Idealism collapses unto materialism. And it is from this humbling and renewed state of awareness that we must begin. In this riveting new collection, the three intertwined aspects of work—the symbolic, the productive, and the distributive—are explored thoroughly. The essays themselves stand as authentic poetic acts. Cultural archeologists of the future might well regard this volume as an essential guide to the ever expanding horizon of that strange human productive activity we call poetry.” —Rodrigo Toscano, author of Collapsible Poetics Theater (2008) and Explosion Rocks Springfeld (2016) “This collection of essays rigorously explores how capitalism, reproduc- tive labor, the falling rate of proft, and acts of working are represented in post-war poetry. Poets are unacknowledged day job workers of the cultural production world. A signifcant part of post-war poetry is writ- ten during time stolen on the day job or late in the evening, after a long shift. As such, poems are full of theoretical possibilities for understanding how work has shaped the aesthetics, the affnities, and the utopian claims of contemporary literature. This book stands as a committed investiga- tion into an array of affnities between the ordinary grounding of work and its utopian claims.” —Juliana Spahr, Professor of English, Mills college, USA, and author of That Winter the Wolf Came (2015) CONTENTS 1 Introduction: Working Late 1 Jo Lindsay Walton and Ed Luker Part I Essays 2 Show Your Workings: Other Forms of Labour in Recent Poetry 71 Peter Middleton 3 Bird-Song by Everyone, for Everyone: Poetry, Work, and Play in J.

  • Modernist Poetry
    GRAAT On-Line issue #8 August 2010 The unquiet boundary, or the footnote Auto-exegetic modes in (neo-)modernist poetry Lucie Boukalova University of Northern Iowa “It is generally supposed that where there is no QUOTATION, there will be found most originality. Our writers usually furnish their pages rapidly with the productions of their own soil: they run up a quickset hedge, or plant a poplar, and get trees and hedges of this fashion much faster than the former landlords procured their timber. The greater part of our writers, in consequence, have become so original, that no one cares to imitate them; and those who never quote, in return are seldom quoted!” Isaac Disraeli, Curiosities of Literature “I have been accused of wanting to make people read all the classics; which is not so. I have been accused of wishing to provide a „portable substitute for the British Museum,‟ which I would do, like a shot, were it possible. It isn‟t.” Ezra Pound, How to Read Clearly unhappy with the course of the scholarly treatment of his notes to The Waste Land, T.S. Eliot revisits the exegetical site three decades after the modernist annus mirabilis in “The Frontiers of Criticism” (1956). Even though he acknowledges that he is not wholly “guiltless of having led critics into temptation” by his annotation, and even though he regrets “having sent so many enquirers off on a wild goose chase,”1 the poet does not publicly condemn his previous method. Retracing and reinforcing the frontiers of a profitable critical enterprise, Eliot calls for a more immediate, and intuitive interaction between the poetic lines and their “paratext.”2 115 However, thus still defending the aesthetic value of his referential apparatus, Eliot seems to have lost faith in the continuity of such practice in the contemporary creative and critical climate.

  • Comedy, Appropriation, and the Sounds of One Hand Clapping1
    S A J _ 2019 _ 11 _ admission date 01 03 2019 polemical article approval date 01 07 2019 UDC 821.09-1 81'255.4 DOUBLETALKING THE HOMOPHONIC SUBLIME: COMEDY, APPROPRIATION, AND THE SOUNDS OF ONE HAND CLAPPING1 A B S T R A C T Homophonic translations create poems that foreground the sound of the original more than the lexical meaning. I begin by discussing the concept of “sound writing,” referencing Haroldo de Campos’s concept of “transcration,” Pound’s “transduction,” and the concept behind calques. I then consider my homophonic translation of Finnish poet Leevi Lehto follows and Ulises Carrión’s isophonic translation. After noting Basil Bunting idea that meaning is carried by sound more than lexical content, I discuss Khelbnikov’s approach to zaum (transense), and sound- alike works based on bird song and animal sounds. The essay then takes up several specific examples: David Melnick’s homophonic translation of Homer, Pierre Joris’s voice recognition translation of Magenetic Fields, and Jean Donneley’s version of Ponge. The essay concludes with a discussion of Caroline Bergvall’s Drift, her version of “The Seafarer” as well as her Chaucer transcreations. A central part of the essay references “homophonic” translation in popular culture, in particular the “doubletalking” of Sid Caesar,” the most popular TV comedian of the early 1950s. A discussion of his work in the context of American Jewish comedy is central to the lecture. But other more recent popular example of the homophonic are discussed with special reference to cultural appropriation.

This book also addresses the impact of both world wars on experimental poetries and the crucial role of magazines in disseminating and proselytising on behalf of poetic modernism.

Although they left town this summer, the writers and artists they inspired can only hope the spirit of the place is here to stay. By Sebastian Smee | GLOBE STAFF AUGUST 12, 2012 0 JHUMPA LAHIRI WASN’T SURE SHE COULD BE A WRITER. Although as a child she had harbored dreams of doing just that, they had gradually been eaten away by self-doubt — she could scarcely believe the books she loved had been written by real people. “At twenty- one,” she recalled in a 2011 New Yorker essay, “the writer in me was like a fly in the room — alive but insignificant, aimless, something that unsettled me whenever I grew aware of it, and which, for the most part, left me alone.” After graduating Barnard in 1989 with a degree in English literature, Lahiri moved to Massachusetts to take classics courses at MATT KALINOWSKI William and Beverly Corbett at 9 Harvard.

Poetic Experiments and Trans-national Exchange: The Little Magazines Migrant (1959-1960) and Poor.Old.Tired.Horse. (1962-1967) Lila Matsumoto PhD English Literature University of Edinburgh 2013 Thesis Abstract Migrant (1959-1960) and Poor.Old.Tired.Horse.(1962-1967) were two little magazines edited respectively by British poets Gael Turnbull and Ian Hamilton Finlay. This thesis aims to explore the magazines’ contributions to the diversification of British poetry in the 1960s, via their commitment to trans- national exchange and publication of innovative poetries. My investigation is grounded on the premise that little magazines, as important but neglected socio- literary forms, provide a nuanced picture of literary history by revealing the shifting activities and associations between groups of writers and publishers. Drawing on Pierre Bourdieu and Pascale Casanova, I argue that Migrant and Poor.Old.Tired.Horse were exceptionally outward-looking publications bringing various kinds of poetic forms, both historical and contemporary, local and international, to new audiences, and creating literary networks in the process.

H.D. and the Angelus Militans 1 H.D. and the Angelus Militans Suzanne Hobson 1 Modernist writers were not slow to recognize that there was an easy analogy to be made between literary and visual representations of the war in heaven and the aerial warfare that was to distinguish 20th-century conflict from all terrestrial precedents (Alldritt 114). The military angel was a ready-made figure for the kinds of strategies and technologies of warfare that were experienced for the first time in World War I and more widely and to more devastating effect in World War II. D.H. Lawrence, for example, recognized the resemblance between Zeppelins and warring angels as early as 1915. He writes to Ottoline Morell that “[i]t was like Milton—there was war in heaven. But it was not angels. It was that small golden Zeppelin, like a long oval world, high up” (Boulton 1981, 390).
