Poetry Out Loud: Close Listening in Literary Studies

Summary/Abstract: Kremer raises the problem of voice in poetry. Engaging with research on the poet’s voice as it is encoded in texts, she discusses traditional studies of recitation, treated as an art that is separate from poetry. She also presents more recent scholarship on performance poetry and analyses well-known recordings of twentieth-century poetry performed by its authors. Drawing on instances of phonetic, sound, and performance poetry together with poetry readings, Kremer points to hitherto overlooked spoken versions of Polish poems. Finally, she examines the category of voice as an object of research and proposes a method of close listening.
