Description
“Is this art or can I clean up?” Erasure Poetry shows, not without irony, that this question also applies to canonical texts. In this phenomenon of contemporary literature, individual words or entire passages of text are made unrecognisable in order to create new poems.
Alexa Bornfleth explores the theoretical and historical foundations of erasure poetry and uses literary examples to show that it is about much more than object art: its functions range from artistic reflection and interpretation to (feminist) canon revision and political archival critique. Among the works analysed are adaptations of Shakespeare's sonnets and those of Elizabeth Barrett Browning.
