Idioms of 'Krete: Selections of idiomorphic concrete poetry, 2000

 Item
Identifier: CC-46317-49040
Scope and Contents

One poem is printed on each of the pages except for a few pages with brief commentary.The following text is printed on the back cover. "Literature is the only artform whose organon is already symbolic. Concrete poetry has always been devoted to the breakdown of the assumed symbolism, either to reform a new one or to celebrate raw, lingual materiality for its own sake. While one branch seeks a new understanding of what was always there through this breakdown - most evident in 'found poetry' - and this is called the 'collective branch'; the other, the ideomorphic, seeks to forever push the process into fresh and singular dislocation. Here are three poets with the latter propensity: Haiku-focused LeRoy Gorman with his constuctivist tendencies, the more sculptural Daniel f. Bradley, minimalist panache in tow and cheek and the graphically ham-fisted Marshall Hryciuk, who feels positively didactic next to the other two." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
