Scope and Contents

Peignot provides examples of picture poems using concrete poems as the image with captions underneath, one to a page. The concrete poems are composed by varying letter spacing, alterating boldness of the typeface, mixing typefaces, repeating letters, printing anagrams, presenting different arrangement of letters, mirror imaging, and adding punctuation marks. The poems relate to Peignot's other book, Le Petit Peignot, published the same year as this book. Both books are held by the Sackner Archive. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
