Scope and Contents
This book deals with aspects of concrete poetry paying debt to Cobbing and other pioneers. Chris Jones' essay provides several definitions of concrete poetry, stating that "it is helpful to think of concrete poetry as being an umbrella term for those processes...who share a concern with text (words, letters, phonemes, signs) as their material." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
