Amy Moorman Robbins examines the ways in which five poets-Gertrude Stein, Laura Mullen, Alice Notley, Harryette Mullen, and Claudia Rankine-use hybridity as an implicitly political strategy to interrupt mainstream American language, literary genres, and visual culture, and expose the ways in which mass culture in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries has had a powerfully standardizing impact on the collective American imagination. By forcing encounters between incompatible traditions-consumer culture with the avant-garde, low culture forms with experimental poetics, prose poetry with linguistic subversiveness-these poets bring together radically competing ideologies and highlight their implications for lived experience. Robbins argues that it is precisely because these poets have mixed forms that their work has gone largely unnoticed by leading members and critics in experimental poetry circles.American poetryWomen authorsHistory and criticismPoeticsAesthetics in literatureCultural fusion in literatureWomen and literatureUnited StatesAmerican poetryWomen authorsHistory and criticism.Poetics.Aesthetics in literature.Cultural fusion in literature.Women and literature811.009/9287Robbins Amy Moorman1970-1635703MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910828317603321American hybrid poetics3976629UNINA
