{"product_id":"live-poetry-julia-novak-9789042034051","title":"Live Poetry: An Integrated Approach to Poetry in Performance","description":"Given the increasing popularity of literary festivals, open mics, and poetry slams, one could justifiably claim that the English-speaking world is currently experiencing a 'Live Poetry' boom. Yet, despite this raised awareness for the aesthetic and social potential of performed poetry, academia has barely responded, failing in the process to update and adapt its concept of poetry to meet these recent developments.\u003cbr\u003eBridging this critical gap, this volume provides for the first time a full methodological 'toolkit' for the analysis of live poetry by drawing together approaches from diverse disciplines concerned with speech and forms of cultural performance. Most notably, these include literary studies, paralinguistics, musicology, kinesics, theatre and performance studies, and folklore studies. \u003cbr\u003eThis innovative methodology is demonstrated through sample analyses based on a mixed corpus of audio and video recordings of poetry performances, as well as on personal interviews with practitioners of live poetry. Of value to the scholar and poetry enthusiast alike, this volume presents an indispensable guide for anyone interested in understanding and analysing poetry's evolution through its current 'spoken word' renaissance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVisit also Novak's website of her publication\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Julia Novak\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 904203405X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789042034051\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.10w x 0.61d","brand":"Julia Novak","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48487468826879,"sku":"9789042034051","price":56.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e62e0fca-b06c-4243-9779-1244d33889e4.jpg?v=1778060643","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/live-poetry-julia-novak-9789042034051","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
