Spoken Word in the UK is a comprehensive and in-depth introduction
to spoken word performance in the UK - its origins and development,
its performers and audiences, and the vast array of different
styles and characteristics that make it unique. Drawing together a
wide range of authors including scholars, critics, and
practitioners, each chapter gives a new perspective on performance
poetics. The six sections of the book cover the essential elements
of understanding the form and discuss how this key aspect of
contemporary performance can be analysed stylistically, how its
development fits into the context of performance in the UK, the
ways in which its performers reach and engage with their audiences,
and its place in the education system. Each chapter is a case study
of one key aspect, example, or context of spoken word performance,
combining to make the most wide-ranging account of this form of
performance currently available. This is a crucial and
ground-breaking companion for those studying or teaching spoken
word performance, as well as scholars and researchers across the
fields of theatre and performance studies, literary studies, and
cultural studies.
