AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'This special issue of JEASA represents the manner in which literature carries life with it, the manner in which literature upends, or explicates the “entangled significance” (van Dooren 7) of our days. It is aimed at exploring how poetry is experienced, revised, lived, analysed, enunciated, performed and measured in our everyday life. The issue is a collation of commissioned and happenstance interventions. In sending the call for submissions out to various friends for scholarship, the details provided were vague; I asked them that they submit something which demonstrated their excitement, to write on something that compelled them in their reading and in their scholarship. The responses received demonstrate a flourishing engagement with Australian writing at the very heart of our intellectual community, and attest to the possibilities of Australian scholarship and the communities of thought developed here. This work evidences the various ways we attend to the complex and ethical significance of poetry, of writing that makes meaning in the world, and the scholarship we are publishing today generates distinctive encounters with the material of language.'
