Her family’s common languages were Turkish and French; Adnan acquired knowledge of Arabic writing through a channel more somatic than semantic. During the Algerian war of independence, when a dream of Arab unity emerged, Adnan’s attitude to the languages of her inheritance changed: “I didn’t need to write in French anymore, I was going to paint in Arabic.” How does this dream constitute itself in Adnan’s poetry and painting? And how are readers to parse the sometimes unintelligible sign systems that result? This chapter will explore the geopolitical implications of Adnan’s “xenoglossic” poetics, which sporadically merges the mediums of writing and painting in folded leporello books, to contemplate how her practices of transcription and supralinguistic gesture enable us to revise reigning discursive categories of cultural nativity and solidarity, citizenship and statelessness.","PeriodicalId":366122,"journal":{"name":"Reading Experimental Writing","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122476121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Formal features such as the sparse us of the 'I' and Retallack's use of the page as a unit yields kaufman's comparison between Retallack's work and Dewey's observation that 'experience is omnipresent and ever important.' The poetic form offers a new form of memoir for Retallack, one that calls into question the project of recollecting one's past. Reconceiving the memoir as 'mindful' rather than 'memory', kaufman's close analysis blended with critical experiment reveals new forms of attention to the experimental work. This chapter scrutinises the way in which Retallack's work 'complicates the first person persona and offers an intervention into new forms of memoir that demand a panoply of forms of attention from the reader.","PeriodicalId":366122,"journal":{"name":"Reading Experimental Writing","volume":"99 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132420368","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hunt’s collection draws attention to how postwar processes of racial group formation are shaped by what Karl Marx calls “the fetishism of the commodity”, in which the life cycle of disposable objects mirrors the fate of racialized disposable or “surplus” populations. The devaluation and destruction of commodities, the chapter maintains, reflect a postwar racial order in which blackness comes to signify a limit case of relative expendability and the “broken” underside of postwar dreams of limitless consumer abundance.","PeriodicalId":366122,"journal":{"name":"Reading Experimental Writing","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129197999","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on Jessica Benjamin, who argues that in the mother-child bond we find an alternative theory of the production of meaning, Rudy argues that the mother-child relation also offers an affective theory of the reception of experiemental work, since such work offers spaces where readers can also become ‘different, new’. Rudy approaches the queer texts in this ‘expanded field’ as a queer literary critic, drawing on the work of Lisa Ruddick and other practices of intersubjecvitity, she explores the notion that, through such practices, Bergvall’s writing has become a ‘public project’ into which we are invited to enter.","PeriodicalId":366122,"journal":{"name":"Reading Experimental Writing","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115875634","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The chapter argues that Wolf’s work criticises national and linguistic borders and ‘mother tongues’ both thematically and poetically, i.e. by way of neologisms, unusual syntax and prefixes, and by splicing a number of languages into the texture and prosody of what Wolf calls her ‘other-tongued’ German poetry. Such an approach to multi- and translingualism as a formal feature with political stakes and a concomitant rejection of an idealised originality, the chapter goes on to argue, also invites a similarly rigorous playfulness and multilingual alertness from a translator. Suggesting that translation is generative and dialogic, in its ability to forge conversations and transnational communities, Wolf’s experimental translational practice is contextualised by reference to other innovative English-language and translingual poets, such as Rosmarie Waldrop, Theresa Hak Kyung Cha, M. NourbeSe Philip, and to the recent critical writing and anthologies of translation and anti-colonial discourses. In conclusion, the chapter argues that Wolf, along with these thinkers and poets, helps readers reconceive translation as a radically inventive and collaborative practice that complicates access to the ‘foreign’ it is usually supposed to facilitate. \u0000 ","PeriodicalId":366122,"journal":{"name":"Reading Experimental Writing","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121409088","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ahmed’s suggestion fits with Lyn Hejinian’s poetic experiments that present happiness as affirming happenings of the happenstance. After considering examples of that in Hejinian’s Happily (2000), the chapter then considers how John Cage used ‘chance determinations’ to make the happenstance happen in a range of his poetic ‘lectures’, including ‘Juillard Lecture’ (1952), ‘Indeterminacy’ (1958), ‘Diary: How to Improve the World’ (1965-82), and ‘Themes and Variations’ (1982). In analysing examples from those texts, the chapter reflects on how Cage’s lectures present and encourage modes of experimental reading that include being happily open to surprising aesthetic and affective possibilities. It concludes by comparing such happy reading to Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick’s theory of ‘reparative reading’.","PeriodicalId":366122,"journal":{"name":"Reading Experimental Writing","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133473915","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specifically, it explores the way in which experimental writing changes reading practices in the contemporary period. The question of how to read is the issue that is in dispute in many works of contemporary experimental writing. In bringing together expert scholars whose works employ theoretical approaches from literary and linguistic, sociological, political, psychoanalytic and economic fields, the book recognises the heterogeneous forms of reading that experimental writing precipitates. Experimental writing today is bound to a politics of reading. The contributors gathered here examine the experimental works’ resistance to interpretation, the issue of ‘reading’ in contemporary culture, and timely questions surrounding the capacity of the works under scrutiny to generate new forms of meaning and voicing. My aim in editing this volume is to harness and present a prevalent view among critics of contemporary avant-garde literature: that it is precisely through the changed nature of reading that experimental writing can intervene in current socio-political discourses....","PeriodicalId":366122,"journal":{"name":"Reading Experimental Writing","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133773161","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Examining Acker’s original artwork for Blood and Guts in High School (1978) housed in the Kathy Acker Papers at Duke University, the chapter contends that the avant-textes reveal a feminist politics of materiality at work in Acker’s compositions. Through the lens of Johanna Drucker’s work on diagrammatic writing and performative materiality, the chapter argues for the avant-texte as a site of socio-political material resistance.
