This study engages the life of form in contemporary innovative
poetries through both an introduction to the latest theories and
close readings of leading North American and British innovative
poets. The critical approach derives from Robert Sheppard's
axiomatic contention that poetry is the investigation of complex
contemporary realities through the means (meanings) of form.
Analyzing the poetry of Rosmarie Waldrop, Caroline Bergval, Sean
Bonney, Barry MacSweeney, Veronica Forrest-Thomson, Kenneth
Goldsmith, Allen Fisher, and Geraldine Monk, Sheppard argues that
their forms are a matter of authorial design and readerly
engagement.
