Communism and Poetry : Writing Against Capital, Hardback Book

Communism and Poetry : Writing Against Capital Hardback

Edited by Ruth Jennison, Julian Murphet

Part of the Modern and Contemporary Poetry and Poetics series

Hardback

Description

Communism and Poetry: Writing Against Capital addresses the relationship between an upsurge in collective political practice around the world since 2000, and the crystallization of newly engaged forms of poetry.

Considering an array of perspectives—poets, poet-critics, activists and theorists—these essays shed new light on the active interface between emancipatory political thought and poetic production and explore how poetry and the new communism are creating mutually innovative forms of thought and activity, supercharging the utopian imagination.

Drawing inspiration from past connections between communism and poetry, and theorizing new directions over the years ahead, the volume models a much-needed critical solidarity with creative strategies in the present conjuncture to activate movements of resistance, on the streets and in verse.
