Set to generate and influence discussions in the field for years to
come, this is an encyclopaedic work on the ever-evolving genre of
poetry film. It will set the benchmark for all subsequent works on
the subject, being the first book of its kind. Poetry films are a
genre of short film, usually combining the three main elements: the
poem as verbal message; the moving film image and diegetic sounds;
and additional non-diegetic sounds or music, which create a
soundscape. This book examines the formal characteristics of the
poetic in poetry film, film poetry and video poetry, particularly
in relation to lyric voice and time. Provides an introduction to
the emergence and history of poetry film in a global context,
defining and debating terms both philosophically and materially.
Examines the formal characteristics of the poetic in poetry film,
particularly in relation to lyric voice and time. Includes
interviews, analysis and a rigorous and thorough investigation of
the poetry film from its origins to the present. This is a very
important, groundbreaking work on film poetry. The ideas discussed
here are of great importance, and the diversity and breadth of the
volume is especially impressive and very useful. This book brings
together in one place crucial ideas and information for
practitioners, students and academics, and is clearly and
accessibly written. Including over 40 contributors and showcasing
the work of an international array of practitioners, this will be
an industry bible for anyone interested in poetry, digital media,
filmmaking, art and creative writing, as well as poetry filmmakers.
It explores working practices, processes of collaboration and the
mechanisms which make these possible. It also reveals the network
of festivals disseminating and theorizing poetry film and presents
a compelling bibliography. This is the most incisive and complete
analysis of filmic poetry to date. It is poised to become a major
text in the field. Essential reading for academics teaching poetry
filmmaking, moving image, film, media and media poetry, writing and
art. Undergraduate and postgraduate students in those fields. Great
potential for textbook adoption. Also relevant to poets,
filmmakers, visual artists, graphic artists and theorists,
filmmakers, screenwriters, art historians, philosophers, cultural
commentators, arts journalists.
