Contemp North American Poetry.
Summary The damage humans have perpetrated on our environment has certainly affected a poet's means and material. But can poetry be ecological? Can it display or be invested with values that acknowledge the economy of interrelationship between the human and the nonhuman realms? Aside from issues of theme and reference, how might syntax, line break, or the shape of the poem on the page express an ecological ethics? To answer these questions, poets Forrest Gander and John Kinsella offer an experiment, a collaborative volume of prose and poetry that investigates-both thema.
Contents Prefatory Note; The Future of the Past; The Carboniferous and Ecopoetics; Codex for a Protest; A Note on Ecopoetics; Redstart; The Movements of Yellow-Rumped Thornbills; A Note on the Collaborative Process; Acknowledgments.
