Expanding Verse

Japanese Poetry at the Edge of Media

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

"Approaches the history of modern Japanese literature from an entirely new angle--media ecologies of poetry. The result is nothing less than an alternative history of literature in Japan as well as a history of media that is by turns surprising and deeply satisfying."--Thomas Lamarre, author of The Anime Ecology: A Genealogy of Television, Animation, and Game Media "Expanding Verse is original in terms of the selection of the corpus; timely in terms of the interdisciplinary scope; and substantial, in terms of the extent of research and the wealth of knowledge imparted. Andrew Campana demonstrates the genre's importance through careful consideration of each poet whose experimental creativity is eloquently introduced and assessed. Warm and inviting--readers will be left feeling much informed about the poets' respective lives, challenges, and adventures."--Atsuko Sakaki, author of Train Travel as Embodied Space-Time in Narrative Theory "This book impresses on every page as a stunning work of scholarly rigor and innovative thinking about a complex problem at the core of humanities. Campana's brilliant understanding of the materiality of poetry rethinks the literary form, challenging us to reconfigure literary and media studies."--Jonathan E. Abel, author of The New Real: Media and Mimesis in Japan from Stereographs to Emoji
