520 |a "American Hybrid Poetics explores the ways in which hybrid poetics--a playful mixing of disparate formal and aesthetic strategies--have been the driving force in the work of a historically and culturally diverse group of women poets who are part of a robust tradition in contesting the dominant cultural order. 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. Robbins shows that while these poets employ widely varying linguistic strategies and topical range, they share a common and deeply critical vision of American popular culture as it promulgates bourgeois capitalist and imperialist values and forecloses possibilities for independent thought and creative resistance. They also share the view that contemporary history can be reimagined in intellectually liberating ways through hybrid poetics"--  |c Provided by publisher 
520 |a "This book is the first to study American hybrid poetics in any depth and it is groundbreaking in foregrounding the work of women poets as leaders in this movement rather than also-rans. It is also the first book to position hybridity as a formal and political aesthetic strategy that has a history in the modernist experimentation of Gertrude Stein. At the same time, the book is one of few studies that argues for the relevance of mass culture to feminist experimental art; in this, the book follows a path laid out by Johanna Drucker and Susan Suleiman. Crucially, and at the dawn of a new era in poetry studies, the book argues forcefully against post-Language era political poets who are openly hostile to the idea of hybrid aesthetics in poetry on the grounds that it is a bland, a-political aesthetic, at the same time that the book argues that the work of the poets studied here reveals far greater depth and dimension to the concept of hybridity than critics have acknowledged"--  |c Provided by publisher
