Abstract

Michael Davidson’s On the Outskirts of Form: Practicing Cultural Poetics contributes to the expanding field of twentieth-century poetic theory by reading the tradition of radical poetics through a cultural lens, with particular emphasis on globalization. Davidson’s work spans the nineteenth and twentieth-centuries as well as the Black Mountain, Berkeley Renaissance, New York, and mainstream poetics. Authors considered include the contemporaries: Herbierto Yepez, Christina Rivera-Garza, Lisa Robertson, and Mark Nowak; the “New American” generation: Charles Olson, Edward Dorn, Robert Creeley, Robert Duncan, Denise Levertov, James Schuyler, and John Ashbery; as well as George Oppen, Lorine Niedecker, and even Percy Shelley.
