Corpus Socius

By Lance Phillips

Poetry. "Long ago, those adventurous, uncompromisingly 'broken' peoms of THE TENNIS COURT OATH, as well as the radiant pieces of language (and silence) etched onto the page by poets such as Celan and Beckett, showed us how far down the Via Negativa our aesthetics could go. Lance Phillips has added to that tradition a poetry which is elliptical not because it has been half erased to confound the authorities, but simply because it is humbly alert to the limitations and possiblilities of linguistic expression"--Christopher Davis. "Lance Phillips is a poet who means to act, and his meaning takes the measure of us all"--Donald Revell.
