Beskrivning
Ekphrastic Approaches in Twenty-First-Century Poetry brings together poets and academics from around the world exploring the evolving practice of ekphrasis in the twenty-first century. With discussion of diverse media, the authors explore ways in which contemporary ekphrasis has evolved, embracing media such as film, music, dance, and the built environment. Against a backdrop of digital image saturation and expanding definitions of art, this collection investigates how contemporary poets respond to visual and material culture while engaging deeply with theory and practice. This text offers a timely, nuanced look at ekphrasis as both critical inquiry and creative method suitable for readers and academics working in the field of poetry and creative writing.

Recensioner i media

"Marvellously provocative and boundary-crushing, Ekphrastic Approaches in Twenty-First Century Poetry: Writing Out brings together practitioners, critics and scholars in conversations about the transformative power of ekphrastic practice. In essays that capture the diversity and efflorescence of contemporary ekphrastic poetry, editors Amina Alyal and Oz Hardwick prioritise work that challenges traditional notions of the relationship between art and poetry and confronts “the why and the how of ekphrastic poetry”. This collection uncovers the alchemy at the heart of twenty-first century ekphrasis and ushers the reader into its liminal spaces, inviting them to revel in the form’s metamorphic dynamism."--Cassandra Atherton, Deakin University
