  6. โ€œpoetry after barbarismโ€, by jennifer scappettone

    โ€œIn Poetry After Barbarism, Jennifer Scappettone argues for nomadic, miscegenated, โ€˜xenoglossicโ€™ poetries as fierce forms of linguistic and political resistance. Prodigiously researched cross-cultural readings celebrate a stellar constellation of consequential poets: Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven, Emilio Villa, Amelia Rosselli, Etel Adnan, and LaTasha N. Nevada Diggs.โ€

    โ€” Charles Bernstein, author of The Kinds of Poetry I Want: Essays and Comedies

    • In this book, Jennifer Scappettone argues that the poetry of motherless tongues is the best form of resistance to the rising tide of nationalism, empire, fascism, and authoritarianism.
    • Studying experiments between languages by immigrant, refugee, and otherwise stateless authorsโ€”from Baroness Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven to Emilio Villa, Amelia Rosselli, Etel Adnan, LaTasha N. Nevada Diggs, Chika Sagawa, and Sawako Nakayasuโ€”this book explores how poetry can both represent and jumpstart metamorphosis of the shape and sound of citizenship; and it
    • untethers identity from territory in favor of a translingual propositionโ€”that tumultโ€™s time is now.

    Jennifer Scappettone is a professor of literature, creative writing, gender studies, and environmental humanities at the University of Chicago. She is the author of Killing the Moonlight: Modernism in Venice (Columbia, 2014) and the cross-genre verse books From Dame Quickly and The Republic of Exit 43. She is also the translator of Locomotrix: Selected Poetry and Prose of Amelia Rosselli.

    You can find more information about the book at the Columbia University Press website:

    Against a backdrop of xenophobic and ethnonationalist fantasies of linguistic purity, Poetry After Barbarism uncovers a stateless, polyglot poetry of resistanceโ€”the poetry of motherless tongues. Departing from the national and global paradigms that dominate literary history, Jennifer Scappettone traces the aesthetic and geopolitical resonance of โ€œxenoglossicโ€ poetics: poetry composed in the space of contestation between national languages, concretizing dreams of mending the ruptures traced to the story of Babel. As global migration, aerial bombardment, and the wireless telegraph shrank distances with brute force during the twentieth century, visions of transcultural communication emerged in the hopes of bridging linguistic difference. At the same time, evolving Fascist ideologies denied the reality of cultural admixture and the humanity of the stranger.

    Authors who write xenoglossic verse occupy languages without a perceived birthright or sanctioned education; they compose in ecstatic โ€œorphan tonguesโ€ that rebuff nationalist ideologies, on the one hand, and globalization, on the other, uprooting notions of belonging ensconced in nativist metaphors of milk, blood, and soil while rendering the reactionary category of the barbarian obsolete. Raised within or in the wake of fascism, these poets practice strategic forms of literary and linguistic barbarism, proposing modes of collectivity that exceed geopolitical definitions. Studying experiments between languages by immigrant, refugee, and otherwise stateless authorsโ€”from Baroness Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven to Emilio Villa, Amelia Rosselli, Etel Adnan, LaTasha N. Nevada Diggs, Chika Sagawa, and Sawako Nakayasuโ€”this book explores how poetry can both represent and jumpstart metamorphosis of the shape and sound of citizenship, modeling paths toward alternative republics in which poetry might assume a central agency.

  10. "wr / eck?"

    When language breaks down at the edge of consciousness, what emerges?

    New experimental poetry: "Echoes in Ice" and two other pieces that deconstruct language at the cellular level.

    Where traditional verse ends, these beginโ€”using broken typography, parenthetical consciousness, and fragmented text to create meaning through fracture itself.

  11. You Wouldnโ€™t Steal A Poem

    Have you ever wanted to steal the way something sounds? Have you ever wanted to take something you just heard someone say but twist it to your bizarre whims? Good news! Maybe you can live out that fantasy without actually committing a thoughtcrime (or a real crime). The holorhyme constraint is a tool for creating experimental poetry.

    The Writing Prompt

    The goal of the exercise is to take an existing piece of text and write a new one based entirely on rhyming words. This could even be adapted to the particular dialect, affectation, or speed at which someone talks (and how you heard it). Iโ€™ve even seen this used as a type of satire to borrow the rhythm and texture of a well-known speech or dramatic monologue and make a total mockery of it. Use with caution.

    Think of this writing constraint as a sort of game of telephone, or (to put it more elegantly) material impressionism. The goal is to take the way something sounds like to you when read aloud, and then twist that impression into something new. A fun variation of this exercise is to record yourself reading something, run it through a crappy piece of transcription software, and then see what comes out. YouTube used to be an excellent resource for making experimental poetry using this method. It may still be, but Iโ€™ve not checked up on it for a while.

    Example Poem

    The example below is a quick little poem I made when reading the English alphabet forwards, then backward. It is also a rough approximation of what 2000s-era AI chatbots sounded like when they talked to each other.

    ABC...CBAA bee: seedy effigy.Age, hide, shake rays,an elemental peaโ€”cures. Tea you feedouble-true as eggsโ€”wisely.See why exits wobble you.Be you to us our que? Peonies, in the mail: Cage-A.I ate Shea, Jeffie, and deceivedโ€”Be โ€œYay!โ€

    In order to really get a good sense for how this constraint works, I encourage you to read this or your own poem out loud. You will know youโ€™re getting it right when a person in the next room could have sworn you were saying something else altogether.

  15. when i

    friendship with
    over many
    that
    engage

    like
    a single
    bookshelf

    by heart. but
    a
    moment

    immediately
    sounding
    over and inside
    the next
    disfigurement
    the poet

    embraced.

  17. the bourgeoisie
    hitherto
    converted
    science
    the
    veil and
    relation
    the
    brutal display of
    much
    slothful indolence
    wherever
    patriarchal
    feudal
    has left
    naked
    drowned
    chivalrous
    icy water
    into
    indefeasible
    freedom

    shameless, direct
    stripped of its halo.

  18. CW: casual drug reference

    In The Margins. . .CanPo pg49

    new chains
    of rare gems

    they hung
    on saplings
    bright, and
    blaz'd in

    they pil'd
    of cedar
    low did
    the camp

    hounds
    with needles
    dream'd of
    a bat by

    the darkness
    close round

  19. from The Margin

    In
    this before
    this poem
    thinking about

    extended image
    torn asunder and
    of architecture
    where birth is
    more the seizure
    inside
    the blade
    apply Lines from
    light and let
    in the wrestling
    of existing

    and grammar
    collections deftly
    hang
    ceiling of
    Experiment

    That there
    the loss
    of a gale's
    truth
    painful topics
    helped
    no small

    pilgrimages to holy
    contradictory glory
