Modernist LegaciesCaroline Bergvall’s Poetics of the Infrathin

Modernist Legacies: Caroline Bergvall’s Poetics of the Infrathin [Presenting Caroline Bergvall’s poetics of the infrathin is both an obvious gesture in a book that explores contemporary poetry through the lens of its relation to modernism, and also a difficult gesture in more ways than one because Bergvall is an in-between: her work traffics on borders and barriers. For instance, her work is characterized by multilingualism/translingualism, though this cannot sum up her work; she is rather well known though she is not a mainstream poet; she spends a lot of time between London and the United States with whose poets she is closely associated.] http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png

Abstract

[Presenting Caroline Bergvall’s poetics of the infrathin is both an obvious gesture in a book that explores contemporary poetry through the lens of its relation to modernism, and also a difficult gesture in more ways than one because Bergvall is an in-between: her work traffics on borders and barriers. For instance, her work is characterized by multilingualism/translingualism, though this cannot sum up her work; she is rather well known though she is not a mainstream poet; she spends a lot of time between London and the United States with whose poets she is closely associated.]
