Projective Verse: 75th Anniversary Edition

By Charles Olsen

The first independent book publication of " the essay that changed American poetry" is reintroduced with new perspectives on its ongoing significance by six critics and poets. " Postmodern poetics begins with Olson's seminal essay " Projective Verse" (1950, 1955) and this urgent and remarkable statement of poetics continues to influence new generations of poets with its bold, dynamic, and energetic rush of provocative ideas about how a poet lives and writes in a postmodern world."
