Beschrijving:
Continuing the exploration of ethnopoetics he began with Technicians of the Sacred (1968), Jerome Rothenberg collaborates with Steven Clay in compiling this anthology examining the book within diverse cultural traditions. From cave paintings, hieroglyphics, and textile weavings to the new implications of advanced publishing techniques and cyberspace, acclaimed poets, scholars, and artists examine the ancient history and near future of the book. Also investigated are the writers and artists whose contributions have integrally furthered our conceptions of a book's possibilities. With more than sixty essays by a broad range of contributors as well as an extensive bibliography for further research and reading, this is a valuable source of information for readers, writers, artists, and booklovers of all persuasions. A Book of the Book is broken down into four sections dealing with different eras of book history: "Pre-faces, " "The Opening of the Field, " "The Book is as Old as Fire & Water, " and "The Book to Come." Among the essayists included are: Rothenberg, Anne Waldman, Jacques Derrida, Gertrude Stein, William Blake, Susan Howe, Maurice Blanchot, Marjorie Perloff, Andre Breton, Johanna Drucker, Alison Knowles, Charles Bernstein, Jess, Ian Hamilton Finlay, Blaise Cendrars and Sonia Delaunay, Antonin Artaud, Dick Higgins, Georges Perec, Dieter Roth, Allan Kaprow, Ian Tyson, and many others.
