Scope and Contents

This book reprints, in dazzling, different, typographical layouts, film scripts and criticisms by avant garde writers and poets of the 20th century. The book, which is designed with several different colored papers and typefaces, received a prize for Arts and Essays from the National Center of Cinematography in France. Typewriter poetry is present on the film scenario of Fortunato Depero and sound poetry in the script by Francois Dufrene. Picture poems are depicted in the Fluxus film scripts by Robert Filliou and George Brecht. Villegle's script includes his typical ideograms. Lawrence Weiner's script is uncharacteristically dense in content and more visual/verbal than his usual works. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Scope and Contents Dr. Bohn writes that this "study seeks to analyze Guillaume Apollinaire's literary and artistic reception by members of the European and American avant-gardes during the early twentieth century...tracing the impact of Apollinaire's ideas as they radiated outward in increasingly larger circles from Paris...limiting the period to 1920 in Europe and 1930 in Latin America...and restricting the study to the avant garde of the major European and American nations."Bohn reviews the close relation and influence of Apollinaire to Mario de Zayas, his "calligrammes" or concrete poems as they would be denoted today, in the periodical, 291. Further, he points out that Apollinaire was first recognized in America because of 291. This book is heavily slanted to the influence of Apollinaire on Spanish and Latin American poets. Indeed, Bohn lucidly reviews the works of some obscure (to Americans) Latin American visual poets like the Mexican, Juan Tablada. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth...

Here Is Tzara's recipe:To make a dadaist poemTake a newspaper.Take a pair of scissors.Choose an article as long as you are planning to make your poem.Cut out the article.Then cut out each of the words that make up this article and put them in a bag.Shake it gently.Then take out the scraps one after the other in the order in which they left the bag.Copy conscientiously.The poem will be like you.And here you are a writer, Infinitely original and endowed with a sensibility that is charming though...

Identifier: CC-52069-73171
Scope and Contents It should be noted that Bohn does not differentiate concrete poetry (words only in Sackner's definition) from visual poetry (integrated words and images in Sackner's definitions). Bohn also includes a chapter on digital poetry. The back cover reads the following. "Visual poetry can be defined as poetry that is meant to be seen. Combining painting and poetry, it attempts to synthesize the principles underlying each discipline. Visual poems are immediately recognizable by their refusal to adhere to a rectilinear grid and by their tendency to flout their plasticity. In contrast to traditional poetry, they are conceived not only as literary works but also as works of art. Although they continue to provide visual cues that aid in deciphering the text, they function simultaneously as visual compositions. Whether the visual elements form a rudimentary pattern or whether they constitute a highly sophisticated design, they transform the poem into a picture. Reading Visual Poetry examines...
