This edition has illustrations from contemporary newspapers as well as an afterword by John Seed. 'There is surely no more radical decentring of the subject\/author in modernist writing, ' John Seed remarks of Charles Reznikoff's Testimony, in the 'Afterword' to this book. The first part of 'Manchester: August 16th \u0026amp; 17th 1819′, written in 1973 but previously unpublished, applies Reznikoff's method to historical materials on the so-called 'Peterloo Massacre'. The second part reflects on this method, noting convergences to some recent discussions in the United States around 'uncreative writing' and 'conceptual writing'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Seed\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1291390065\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781291390063\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lulu.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/11\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 68\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.12lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.00h x 4.25w x 0.14d","brand":"John Seed","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48484832411903,"sku":"9781291390063","price":13.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9be1138d-d210-4cad-99ba-11310ece9bf9.jpg?v=1778046191","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/manchester-john-seed-9781291390063","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
