Poets in dialogue about emergence, influence and community
2/1/09
Just announced: March 2 Reading w/ Buffalo Extravaganza!
We're very pleased to announce the March 2 Emergency reading will feature a bevy of poets from SUNY Buffalo's Poetics program: Divya Victor, Andrew Rippeon, Chris Sylvester, and Steve Zultanski. More details to follow.
Emergency is designed to address several questions we see arising in contemporary North American poetry around issues of emergence and literary community. We've created an ongoing dialogue among working poets on how they think about poetic lineage, theoretical stances, and aesthetic practice.
The series was launched in 2006 with support from the Kerry Sherin Wright Prize for programming at Kelly Writers House in Philadelphia, an award designed to support a project that demonstrates aesthetic capaciousness and literary communitarianism. All readings are held in Philadelphia and available online at PennSound.
Emergency is curated by Julia Bloch and Sarah Dowling.
