Poetry buffs!
The "Poetry Off the Page" research project has recently launched the first 2 episodes of a new podcast which sheds light on current critical work on spoken word. Follow us on Spotify:

How interesting - these short formats are becoming increasingly relevant. Could you perhaps add some information on the kinds of books that you envision as the subjects of these short monographs? English-language only? American poetry? ...

Have a good weekend, everyone!

Poetry performance researchers!
We proudly announce the launch of a new international blog with a focus on theory and methodology:
