Reconsiders the lyrical norm that predominates in Anglophone accounts of poetry through a multilingual and transnational lensThis book examines poets and artists in the Americas during the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries to show how they worked to make language into material objects and material objects into language. It builds a theory of 'material poetics' that provides an alternative account of poetry in hemispheric America. Rebecca Kosick argues that by reframing American poetry to prominently include object-oriented practices within and beyond the United States, material poetry can be seen as representing a significant branch of the American poetic tradition.
Reconsiders the lyrical norm that predominates in Anglophone accounts of poetry through a multilingual and transnational lens A bold project that departs from a tradition heavily dominated by the lyric to question the very nature of what counts as poetry. A visually exciting text that draws on poetry and art from a wide array of late twentieth and early twenty-first century practitioners. An interdisciplinary approach to poetry and poetics that opens new avenues for understanding how poetry intersects with philosophies of the object, media theory, and visual studies. A transnational frame that responds to a growing scholarly push to situate American studies within the broader context of the American hemisphere.

Textuality is the condition in which a text is created, edited, archived, published, disseminated, and consumed. ""Texts,"" therefore, encompass a broad variety of artifacts: traditional printed matter such as grammar books and newspaper articles; phonographs; graphic novels; ephemera such as fashion illustrations, catalogs, and postcards; and even virtual databases and cataloging systems. Latin American Textualities is a wide-ranging, interdisciplinary look at textual history, textual artifacts, and digital textualities across Latin America from the colonial era to the present. Editors Heather J. Allen and Andrew R. Reynolds gathered a wide range of scholars to investigate the region's textual scholarship. Contributors offer engaging examples of not just artifacts but also the contexts in which the texts are used. Topics include Guaman Poma's library, the effect of sound recordings on writing in Argentina, Sudamericana Publishing House's contribution to the Latin American literary boom, and Argentine science fiction. Latin American Textualities provides new paths to reading Latin American history, culture, and literatures.
