Part of the Lives & letters series

Paperback

Item not Available

Description

The development of French poetry is marked by formal innovation - poemes en prose, vers libres, versets, calligrammes, lettrisme, spatialisme, poesie concrete, poesie eclatee - which break traditional moulds of versification without abandoning the aesthetic value of poetry.

This study focuses on how visual stimuli, in a context of technological progress in communication, have governed poets' responses to the challenge of formal freedom.
