Toby Fitch : Themparks,
single work
criticism
'In her review of John Ashbery’s translation of Illuminations in The New York Times, Lydia Davis reminds us that: “When Rimbaud’s mother asked of A Season in Hell, ‘What does it mean?’ — a question still asked of Rimbaud’s poetry, and of Ashbery’s, too — Rimbaud would say only, ‘It means what it says, literally and in every sense’.” ' (Introduction)

Cento : Towards Homonymic Consciousness,
single work
criticism
'The above passage is striking not only for the embodied, epidermal associations of Indigeneity (‘sun-tanned’), but also for the concordance of Noonuccal’s ‘double existence’ with transnational discourses of Blackness that come before and after her. One reads in this passage a similarity to both W.E.B. Du Bois’ ‘double consciousness’ and a popular contemporary iteration expressed in the phrase ‘walking in two worlds’. ' (Introduction)
-
Status and Identity in Poetry : A Footnote,
single work
criticism
'Status changes depending on our choice of and performance in language games as they exist dialectically. This is not merely to highlight the performativity of a proposition but to say language’s materiality, and activity, is paradoxically a real and ideal symptom and structure. If I say ‘I’m white’ the meaning of that depends on context as will the response.' (Introduction)
-
Country & Western,
single work
criticism
'That poetry is implicated with politics is incontrovertible. As Theodore Adorno writes ‘art exists in the real world and has a function in it, and the two are connected by a large number of mediating links.’ Those mediating links however, the things that connect each to the other, are harder to grapple with. What does the daily life of a protest poet look like compared to a conservative one when both work in a modern university? What poetry does the politician read?' (Introduction)
