Offering a comprehensive survey of poetry and poetics at the intersection of gender and sexuality for the very first time, this handbook places queer and feminist poetry and poetics in dialogue with a range of critical frameworks emerging from queer theory, trans theory, critical race studies, decolonial and Indigenous studies, new materialism, ecocriticism, posthumanism, and translation studies.Seeking a range of perspectives from different geographical, linguistic, and (trans)national contexts, the book is organised in five interconnected clusters, each of which foregrounds a particular aspect of poetic practice as it relates to genders and sexualities: Bodies and Sexualities, Borders, Contact Zones and Diasporas, Indigenous Poetics and Decolonizing the Archive, Histories and Temporalities of Sex and Gender, and Media and Material Cultures.Mapping the ways in which poetics shapes theoretical dialogues as well as the way poetics is, in turn, shaped by these dialogues, this book builds on earlier scholarship on feminist poetics and on more recent work on queer dimensions of canonical modernist poetics. It also pushes the field forward by thinking about gender and sexuality through a wide range of emerging theoretical and political contexts, and by interrogating poetic genealogies and proposing new forms of engagement at the nexus of poetics, gender, and sexuality.

Social Poesis introduces readers to the work of one of Canada's most exciting and challenging poets. Through selections from across Rachel Zolf's poetic oeuvre, this book foregrounds the philosophical, ethical, and political questions that inform Zolf's poetry. Selections range from early poems in which Zolf explores transhistorical trauma and queer subjectivity to more recent writings that examine militarism, settler colonialism, and other forms of state-sanctioned violence. Zolf's poetry enacts what she calls a ""social poesis""; she is attuned to questions of ethical responsibility and the role, and limitations, of poetry as a tool for ethical thinking, political engagement, accountability, and bearing witness. Heather Milne's introduction examines Zolf's compositional strategies, tracing the evolution of Zolf's writing from an autobiographical poetics, in which Zolf as subject/speaker is locatable, toward a poetics that moves beyond the self to address political and ethical relations among subjects of geopolitics and settler colonialism. In her afterword, Zolf focuses on her most recent work, in which poems are composed almost entirely from archival sources and enact a kind of collective assemblage of enunciation.

This book explores Two-Spirit and LGBTTQ* contributions to and interventions in museums and museum studies, both as a means of addressing structural exclusions and of opening new modes of productive inquiry and activism. Building on the inroads that have been made into existing museological practice and scholarship, the collection brings new voices and concerns to the field. For the contributors to this volume, “queering the museum” is not only about addressing representations of gender and sexuality, but also challenging white privilege, racism, and settler colonialism among other structures of oppression as they operate alongside and with heteronormativity, homophobia, and transphobia in and beyond museums, archives, and galleries. To challenge these norms in the context of museums and other knowledge producing institutions means that “queering” must also, simultaneously and inextricably, be decolonial. That is, queering and decolonizing are inseparable strategies if we understand that heteronormativity and gender binaries are constructions that stem from colonial logics and are upheld by colonial institutions. The book features essays by artists, curators, and scholars—emerging and established—from a range of disciplines including Art History, Cultural Studies, Curatorial Studies, English, Indigenous Studies, Museum Studies, and Women’s and Gender Studies.

Nicole Brossard, Margaret Christakos, Susan Holbrook, Dorothy Lusk, Karen Mac Cormack, Daphne Marlatt, Erin Moure, M. NourbeSe Philip, Sina Queyras, Lisa Robertson, Gail Scott, Nathalie Stephens, Catriona Strang, Rita Wong, Rachel Zolf. These fifteen women are some of the best writers engaged in avant-garde literary production today, defining the contours of new movements and schools of writing in North America. By showcasing their work alongside extensive interviews, Prismatic Publics stages intimate encounters with these key figures as they work in and against Language, conceptual, post-conceptual, documentary, and investigative poetry traditions -- often across, between and at the interstices of genres. The writers in this anthology do not represent a single movement or tradition, although they all recognize language as inherently problematic and a perpetual subject of inquiry. Theirs is writing that demands a heightened level of attentiveness and attunement to what language can do on the page and in the social worlds of its making.Gathered in a single volume, these selections, some dating back to the early 1970s and others appearing in print for the first time, provide an opportunity to trace the diverse networks, influences, dialogues, dialectics, and interventions that continue make the work of Canada's innovative women writers a powerful force in avant-garde writing around the world.
