Synopsis

Examines the transformative power of repetition in contemporary poetic practices

• Explores the various ways in which poets engage with repetition with examples ranging from concrete poetry of the 1950s to the post-digital poetics of the present day
• Reexamines the notion of repetition in ways that open new avenues for rethinking its role in the history of avant-garde poetry of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries
• Demonstrates how experimental poetry and artistic research are themselves practices of knowledge production that offer a thought-provoking approach for reinterpreting creative repetition in a time of statistically patterned AI text production
• Contributes to shed new light on literary works defined by radical appropriation, remix, and other iterative writing practices based on transformative repetition
• Brings together internationally renowned scholars as well as emerging researchers whose work is pushing the boundaries of a variety of disciplines – including literary studies, media studies, research-creation and digital humanities

Transformative Repetition in Experimental and Post-Digital Poetics sheds new light on how we see repetition today by proposing a multi-faced exploration of the material and medial expressiveness of repetition in contemporary poetry. This collection brings together scholars from across different disciplines to analyse transformative repetitions in works of experimental, concrete, conceptual, digital and post-digital poetry. Linking contemporary poetics to their historical antecedents in the avant-gardes of the twentieth century, Transformative Repetition pays special attention to the expanded media boundaries that define literary practices in the twenty-first century. As such, it draws on an expanded notion of poetry to examine how repetition shapes different textual modalities in various media while challenging the traditional divides between repetition and variation, creation and replication, difference and sameness. Attentive to the relationship between form and aesthetic politics, the chapters in this volume also highlight the cultural, social and political implications of repetition.
