Ranging from roughly the late-1940s to the early 1970s, this study examines the development of open field poetics, alternately termed projective verse, after Charles Olson's influential essay of the same name. In doing so, it traces projective verse from its creation amidst the crucible of racial integration at Black Mountain College, to its development through a series of interracial friendships explored among writers involved in the Boston, San Francisco, and downtown New York scenes, to its reimagining by African American poets working in Harlem, Los Angeles, and beyond as part of the Black Arts Movement. Because the histories of integration, jazz, and postwar poetics have been studied too often as the subjects of disparate narratives and separate disciplines, this arc of their shared development has also been largely obscured. To remedy this, the present study takes an interdisciplinary approach, with insights from contemporary histories, performance studies, sound studies, critical race theory, and literary criticism informing the mix of literary analysis, musicology, and historical detail that comprises each chapter. Accordingly, the book argues for an integrated approach to the New American Poetry and the Black Arts Movement, one that situates the midcentury poetics of breath and performance in the context of the Civil Rights-era politics and jazz music that informed it. Moreover, it also unearths significant and little understood connections between Black Mountain, the Beats, the Boston Renaissance, the New York scene, and the Black Arts Movement, expanding, thereby, our understandings of each, and, in a more general sense, of contemporary American poetry, politics, and music in the process"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 505 0 $a Preface: Integrating Black Mountain -- Introduction: Dissonant voices: race, jazz, and the new American poetics of breath -- Form is never more than an extension of bird: projective verse as jazz poetic -- Ouside Boston: Stephen Jonas in the poetry of John Wieners and Jack Spicer -- Howling Parker: jazz, race, and beat performance -- Broadening the voice: Amiri Baraka among the hipsters -- Spitting fire: the Black Arts Movement and the new American poetry -- Conclusion: Out and gone. 541 1 $3 Copy 1 ; $c Gift ; $d 2023. $5 IaU 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 650 0 $a American poetry $x History and criticism. $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a American poetry $y 20th century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a African Americans $x Intellectual life $y 20th century. 650 0 $a African Americans in literature. 650 0 $a Jazz $x Philosophy and aesthetics. 650 0 $a Black Arts movement. 650 0 $a Poetics. 650 0 $a Music and literature $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 7 $a African Americans in literature $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799727 650 7 $a African Americans $x Intellectual life $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799627 650 7 $a American poetry $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00807348 650 7 $a American poetry $x African American authors $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00807349 650 7 $a Black Arts movement $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00833583 650 7 $a Jazz $x Philosophy and aesthetics $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01751455 650 7 $a Music and literature $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01030479 650 7 $a Poetics $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01067682 651 7 $a United States $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 655 7 $a History $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Pizza, Joseph, 1979- $t Dissonant voices $d Iowa City : University of Iowa Press, [2023] $z 9781609389123 $w (DLC) 2022058113 830 0 $a Contemporary North American poetry series 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240117013324.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=49B6AD6AB50611EEB233F11920ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
