Eduardo Ledesma analyzes visual, concrete, kinetic, and digital poetry that questions what the \"literary\" means, what constitutes poetry, and how, if at all, visual and verbal arts should be differentiated. \u003ci\u003eRadical Poetry\u003c\/i\u003e examines how poets use the latest technologies (cinematography, radio, television, and software) to create poetry that self-consciously interrogates its own form, through close alliances with conceptual and abstract art, performance, photography, film, and new media. To do so, Ledesma draws on pertinent theories of metaphor, affect, time, space, iconicity, and cybernetics. Ledesma shows how José Juan Tablada (Mexico), Joan Salvat-Papasseit (Catalonia), Clemente Padín (Uruguay), Fernando Millán (Spain), Décio Pignatari (Brazil), Ana María Uribe (Argentina), and others turn words, machines, and, more recently, the digital into flesh, making word-objects \"come alive\" by assembling text to act and seem human, whether on the page, on walls, or on screens.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEduardo Ledesma \u003c\/b\u003eis Assistant Professor of Spanish at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 358\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.9 x 8.9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 02, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53878632022323,"sku":"9781438462004","price":73.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/B1sAxr2oWd9781438462004.webp?v=1787199849","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/radical-poetry-aesthetics-politics-technology-and-the-ibero-american-avant-gardes-1900-2015-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
