The Book As Object and Concept in American Poetry After Modernism The Book as Object and Concept in American Poetry after Modernism Chelsea Jennings A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2014 Reading Committee: Jessica Burstein, Chair Thomas Lockwood Brian Reed Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Department of English © Copyright 2014 Chelsea Jennings University of Washington Abstract The Book as Object and Concept in American Poetry after Modernism Chelsea Jennings Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Associate Professor Jessica Burstein Department of English This dissertation argues that the printed book—as a unit of meaning, a sculptural and visual object, and a consumer good—has been important to American poetry after modernism, and in particular to writers who directly engage the materiality of language in their poetry. In postwar poetry criticism, the “material text” is much discussed but often remains abstract: an emphasis on language as a medium tends to eclipse the literal sense in which texts are made of matter. This dissertation contends that in American poetry a self-consciousness about the materiality of language has been intimately related to experiments with the physical features of the book. It focuses on the work of four poets—Ezra Pound, Jack Spicer, Susan Howe, and Anne Carson— who exemplify this dual interest in materiality, and who, because they move beyond the isolated lyric toward book-length compositions, also implicate the conceptual force of “the book” in their poetry. The dissertation’s first section, “Production,” is situated in the small press printing revolution of the 1950s and 1960s. Its chapters on Pound and Spicer demonstrate how the material features of book-objects (including paper, binding, typography, and images) point to production and distribution contexts and, in so doing, to larger systems of literary and economic value that become an interpretive framework for reading the poetry these books contain. The second section, “Reproduction,” turns to recent texts by Howe and Carson that exploit for aesthetic purposes the slippage between the reproducible visual features of the page and the non-transferrable material features of the book. As such, these texts challenge conventional definitions of textuality and highlight the visual and haptic potential of the printed book in the digital age. Together these sections suggest that the printed book has been, and continues to be, a key site for extending the available conditions of possibility for American poetry.

Her insight and energy—including an indefatigable capacity for reading drafts—have been crucial. Under her direction I have come to better appreciate the pleasures of divergent thinking, the advantages of revision, and the rigors of a well-written sentence. I am equally grateful for all she has done to improve this dissertation and my experience of producing it. Brian Reed’s wide-ranging enthusiasm for poetry has been inspiring and his expertise invaluable. He is a generous and perceptive reader, and I am fortunate to have learned from his model as well as from his thoughtful responses to my work. Tom Lockwood’s wisdom and wit made even the most technical aspects of bibliography engaging. From my earliest encounter with textual studies he has asked the kinds of large-scale questions that have given me new perspective on my work. I have benefited immensely from the knowledge, assistance, and contagious excitement of the University of Washington Libraries’s Book Arts and Rare Books Curator Sandra Kroupa. Her ongoing efforts to build and share the Book Arts Collection have been instrumental to my research and teaching alike. I am also thankful to Tony Power and the staff of the Simon Fraser University Library’s Special Collections for their help and hospitality during my visits to the Contemporary Literature Collection. I continue to value my time in Cincinnati’s ArtWorks program, where Pam Sussman introduced me to book arts. It was there that the question “what is a book?” was first posed to me, and over fifteen years later I am still intrigued by that question and still binding books. Many colleagues and friends have been enthusiastic interlocutors—particularly Sarah Cohen, Annie Dwyer, Nadine Maestas, Andy Meyer, Danny Nelson, Alice Pedersen, Lindsay Rose Russell, and Jennie Allen. They have regularly reminded me why it is worth studying literature and provided much-needed fun in both literary and extra-literary forms. I cherish their kindness and camaraderie. My parents, Mo and Bob Jennings, cultivated my curiosity, creativity, and love of books from an early age and have encouraged me to keep these qualities alive in adulthood. Rather than recommending more practical alternatives, they have lent their unwavering support to making my aspirations possible. Their belief in me is sustaining, and their presence in my life a source of real joy. I am grateful, too, for the similarly constant support and affection of my grandparents, Norb and Mary Ranz. Brett Jennings, Chaz Jennings, and Angela Williams somehow manage to appreciate my idiosyncrasies (book-related and otherwise) without letting me go off the deep end. They have kept me company from afar and have kept me laughing, which is a serious gift. Mike and Linda Ranz ensured I was housed, well-fed, and thoroughly entertained in my first year of graduate school, and this generosity made my move to Seattle possible. Donna, Wayne, Vince, Cristina, Cora, and Marin Arvidson have been superlative companions along the way. I am more than lucky to have such a rowdy cheering section. I have innumerable reasons to be thankful to Heather Arvidson, but where the writing of this dissertation is concerned, I am especially thankful for her ability to make day-to-day life more possible, more enjoyable, and more imaginative. It is a privilege to be in such close proximity to her exciting and unusual mind. Figure 1. Clockwise from top left: Su Blackwell, Pandora Opening Box (2009) Brian Dettmer, Key Monuments 1 (2009) Jonathan Callan, Seven Volumes (2009) Matej Krén, Book Cell (2006) Lisa Kokin, Room for Improvement (2008) Introduction: Reading Matter The book’s status as object and concept is perhaps nowhere more apparent than in contemporary “bookworks”: sculptures and installations made by carving, stacking, dismantling, deforming, and otherwise altering the codex. The range of bookworks is wide, encompassing Su Blackwell’s enchanted scenes emerging from the page spread, Brian Dettmer’s surgical excavations of imagery and text, Jonathan Callan’s circular cross-sections of tightly wound pages, Matej Krén’s architectural spaces that use books as bricks, and Lisa Kokin’s stones shaped from pulped books (fig. 1). Each of these works draws attention to the codex as a technology by interfering with its function. When the act of reading is thwarted by the book’s disfiguration or by the “Do Not Touch” advisory of the gallery, the codex appears simultaneously as iconic object and mere matter. As Garrett Stewart describes, “the book-work—as material object— once denied its mediating purpose as verbal text, can only be studied for the bookwork—as conceptual labor—it performs.”1 The “conceptual labor” of the book includes conjuring deeply ingrained associations with knowledge and authority and an almost talismanic power. Although these associations derive from eras when books were exceedingly rare, valuable, and laborious to produce, bookworks help to show the degree to which they persist in more subtle form in even the most ordinary mass-produced paperbacks. At the same time, bookworks remind us that for all of this conceptual force, books are resolutely physical. This dissertation considers how aspects of the book that are made vividly apparent by sculptures and installations impact literary works that remain available to reading and handling. More specifically, “The Book as Object and Concept” argues for the significance of the book 1 Garrett Stewart, Bookwork: Medium to Object to Concept to Art (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 2011), xiii. 1 as both a unit of meaning and a material object to American poetry after modernism. The authors in this dissertation—Ezra Pound, Jack Spicer, Susan Howe, and Anne Carson—make the materiality of written language an explicit subject of their poetry and a crucial element of their poetics, thereby calling attention to the physical form in which this language appears. Too, they share an interest in moving beyond the lyric as the primary unit for poetry, and as such the idea of the book becomes especially potent in their work. This dissertation proposes that these poets’ investments in the materiality of language and the conceptual parameters of the book are crucially bound to the book-objects in which their work appears. “The Book as Object and Concept” therefore joins an ongoing dialogue between textual studies and literary criticism that aims to account for the complex relationship between textuality and literary meaning. It takes as axiomatic the fact that texts are physical, tangible objects and the book is not simply a passive container for the work. Instead, the specific non-linguistic features of a given book, such as typeface, printing method, paper quality, size, or binding structure—what Jerome McGann terms a text’s “bibliographic code”—help to shape the meaning of the work.2 Textual scholarship’s attentiveness to the material potential of the book spans a wide range of locations, genres, and time periods, but this dissertation follows a specific set of investments in the book, rooted in modernist verse experiments, as they develop in the United States after World War II.

Wagner, Chair Professor Emeritus T.J. Clark Professor Emerita Kaja Silverman Spring 2013 Abstract House Work: Domesticity, Belonging, and Salvage in the Art of Jess, 1955-1991 by Tara McDowell Doctor of Philosophy in History of Art University of California, Berkeley Professor Emerita Anne M. Wagner, Chair This dissertation examines the work of the San Francisco-based artist Jess (1923-2004). Jess’s multimedia and cross-disciplinary practice, which takes the form of collage, assemblage, drawing, painting, film, illustration, and poetry, offers a perspective from which to consider a matrix of issues integral to the American postwar period. These include domestic space and labor; alternative family structures; myth, rationalism, and excess; and the salvage and use of images in the atomic age. The dissertation has a second protagonist, Robert Duncan (1919-1988), preeminent American poet and Jess’s partner and primary interlocutor for nearly forty years. Duncan and Jess built a household and a world together that transgressed boundaries between poetry and painting, past and present, and acknowledged the limits and possibilities of living and making daily.

  • THE TWO HUNDREDTH BOOK American Institute of Graphic Arts’ Annual Fifty Books of the Year
    THE TWO HUNDREDTH A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE BOOKS PUBLISHED BY THE BOOK CLUB OF CALIFORNIA 1958–1993 BY ROBERT D. HARLAN 1993 THE BOOK CLUB OF CALIFORNIA PREFACE HE CLUB’S FIRST BOOK was published in 1914 and the one hundredth book forty-four years later. These books are described in David Magee’s The Hundredth Book, a Bibliography of the Publications of the Book Club of California & a History of the Club (1958). In this sequel of the second hundred books Magee’s method of bibliographical description has been retained with some modifications. In the title page transcriptions the text is in roman capital letters. Line endings are indicated with a vertical line, and the terms device, decoration and illustration are used to indicate printer’s device, and non-representative and representative im- ages. Measurements are height by width of the page to the eighth of an inch. Inferred pagination is provided in parentheses—roman for preliminary material and arabic for text. Preliminary leaves for which pagination cannot be inferred are listed in the contents note but are not included in the pagination count. The use of colors in printing and lettering is indicated. The generic term illustrations encompasses such material as facsimiles, maps, drawings and sketches, photographs and photographic reproduc- tions, woodcuts, linoleum cuts and engravings, and plates. The text type and the method of composition are identified as in Magee. But to the processes he describes— hand set, monotype, linotype, intertype—are added linotronic, phototype and, more recently, computer composition. Paper identification falls into three categories: hand- made, mold made and machine made.

    Archive from “A Secret Location” Small Press / Mimeograph Revolution, 1940s–1970s We are pleased to offer for sale a captivating and important research collection of little magazines and other printed materials that represent, chronicle, and document the proliferation of avant-garde, underground small press publications from the forties to the seventies. The starting point for this collection, “A Secret Location on the Lower East Side,” is the acclaimed New York Public Library exhibition and catalog from 1998, curated by Steve Clay and Rodney Phillips, which documented a period of intense innovation and experimentation in American writing and literary publishing by exploring the small press and mimeograph revolutions. The present collection came into being after the owner “became obsessed with the secretive nature of the works contained in the exhibition’s catalog.” Using the book as a guide, he assembled a singular library that contains many of the rare and fragile little magazines featured in the NYPL exhibition while adding important ancillary material, much of it from a West Coast perspective. Left to right: Bill Margolis, Eileen Kaufman, Bob Kaufman, and unidentified man printing the first issue of Beatitude. [Ref SL p. 81]. George Herms letter ca. late 90s relating to collecting and archiving magazines and documents from the period of the Mimeograph Revolution. Small press publications from the forties through the seventies have increasingly captured the interest of scholars, archivists, curators, poets and collectors over the past two decades. They provide bedrock primary source information for research, analysis, and exhibition and reveal little known aspects of recent cultural activity. The Archive from “A Secret Location” was collected by a reclusive New Jersey inventor and offers a rare glimpse into the diversity of poetic doings and material production that is the Small Press Revolution.

  • Born 1923, Long Beach, CA Died 2004, San Francisco, CA Jess Was
    JESS Born 1923, Long Beach, CA Died 2004, San Francisco, CA Jess was born Burgess Franklin Collins in Long Beach, California. He was drafted into the military and worked on the production of plutonium for the Manhattan Project. After his discharge in 1946, Jess worked at the Hanford Atomic Energy Project in Richland, Washington, and painted in his spare time, but his dismay at the threat of atomic weapons led him to abandon his scientific career and focus on his art. In 1949, Jess enrolled in the California School of the Arts (now the San Francisco Art Institute) and, after breaking with his family, began referring to himself simply as “Jess”. He met Robert Duncan in 1951 and began a relationship with the poet that lasted until Duncan’s death in 1988. In 1952, in San Francisco, Jess, with Duncan and painter Harry Jacobus, opened the King Ubu Gallery, which became an important venue for alternative art and which remained so when, in 1954, poet Jack Spicer reopened the space as the Six Gallery. Many of Jess’s paintings and collages have themes drawn from chemistry, alchemy, the occult, and male beauty, including a series called Translations (1959–1976) which is done with heavily laid-on paint in a paint-by-number style. In 1975, the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art displayed six of the “Translations” paintings in their MATRIX 2 exhibition.[1] Collins also created elaborate collages using old book illustrations and comic strips (particularly, the strip Dick Tracy, which he used to make his own strip Tricky Cad).

  • Writing Communities: Aesthetics, Politics, and Late Modernist Literary Consolidation
    WRITING COMMUNITIES: AESTHETICS, POLITICS, AND LATE MODERNIST LITERARY CONSOLIDATION by Elspeth Egerton Healey A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (English Language and Literature) in the University of Michigan 2008 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor John A. Whittier-Ferguson, Chair Associate Professor Kali A. K. Israel Associate Professor Joshua L. Miller Assistant Professor Andrea Patricia Zemgulys © Elspeth Egerton Healey _____________________________________________________________________________ 2008 Acknowledgements I have been incredibly fortunate throughout my graduate career to work closely with the amazing faculty of the University of Michigan Department of English. I am grateful to Marjorie Levinson, Martha Vicinus, and George Bornstein for their inspiring courses and probing questions, all of which were integral in setting this project in motion. The members of my dissertation committee have been phenomenal in their willingness to give of their time and advice. Kali Israel’s expertise in the constructed representations of (auto)biographical genres has proven an invaluable asset, as has her enthusiasm and her historian’s eye for detail. Beginning with her early mentorship in the Modernisms Reading Group, Andrea Zemgulys has offered a compelling model of both nuanced scholarship and intellectual generosity. Joshua Miller’s amazing ability to extract the radiant gist from still inchoate thought has meant that I always left our meetings with a renewed sense of purpose. I owe the greatest debt of gratitude to my dissertation chair, John Whittier-Ferguson. His incisive readings, astute guidance, and ready laugh have helped to sustain this project from beginning to end. The life of a graduate student can sometimes be measured by bowls of ramen noodles and hours of grading.
