Summary
"Architectures of Poetry is the first comprehensive accounting of the currently intense dialogue between the sister arts of poetry and architecture. Refusing to take either term in a metaphoric sense, the eleven essays collected in this volume exemplify an exciting methodological direction for work in the humanities: a "literal wager" that is willing to take the unintended suggestions of language as reality. At the same time, they also provide close readings of the work of a number of important writers."--BOOK JACKET.
