As some of you know Scott Thurston has been working here with me at
Edge Hill on poetry writing and poetics, on an Edge Hill funded
studentship, devised by me.
I have developed the following new, more open, studentship, which
might be of interest to you or to somebody to whom you could pass on
the information.
It is open in the sense that applicants will suggest their own creative
AND theoretical project.
It is hoped that the person appointed to this studentship will be working
creatively in the area of inter-generic, non-generic or hybrid forms, and
will be interested in theorising this practice in terms of a poetics of
writing.
What we understand by "hybrid" writing is any experiment to combine
genre or art forms on the page: prose poetry, poet's prose, book art, text
and image collboration, concrete poetry, the graphic novel.
