Powerful essays on the state and aims of contemporary poetry.'The days of anything staticform, content, stateare over,' declares poet and translator Pierre Joris in A Nomad Poetics, his first collection of critical essays. Joris maps the success and limitations of contemporary avantgarde poetics, from Tristan Tzara to the most contemporary American experimental poetry, an investigation that leads him to envision a 'nomadic poetics' as a strategy for new poetic work, for translation and, fundamentally, for an ethics of early 21st century life. Extending concepts and concerns voiced by Gilles Deleuze and Flix Guattari, A Nomad Poetics is a daring first step in deploying the method of the rhizome, one grounded in Paul Celan's insight that 'Reality is not. It has to be searched for and won.' With articulate immediacy, Joris's essays announce a metamorphosis of languagebased art, much needed if poetry is to be of essential use in shaping the world to come.
