No Jacket. Pittsburgh. 2017. March 2017. University of Pittsburgh Press. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. 9780822964377. Pittsburgh Series in Culture, Composition, and Literacy. 216 pages. paperback. keywords: Literary Criticism Poetry. DESCRIPTION-‘Bakhtin loved poetry and could recite it for hours, but as a theorist he was somewhat lyricophobic. Dialogic potentials were better served by novels. Don Bialostosky, one of the first and most passionate Western scholars of poetry to take Bakhtin beyond his own word, addresses in this new study the classroom art of animating a poem: how to equip readers to enter the poetic utterance, participate in performing it, and co-create its wisdoms and pleasures. A smart, effective, infectious book that Bakhtin would have treasured. '-Caryl Emerson, Princeton University. Approaching poems as utterances designed and packaged for pleasurable reanimation, How to Play a Poem leads readers through a course that uses our common experience of language to bring poems to life. It mobilizes the speech genres we acquire in our everyday exchanges to identify ‘signs of life' in poetic texts that can guide our co-creation of tone. How to Play a Poem draws on ideas from the Bakhtin School, usually associated with fiction rather than poetry, to construct a user-friendly practice of close reading as an alternative to the New Critical formalism that still shapes much of teaching and alienates many readers. It sets aside stock questions about connotation and symbolism to guide the playing out of dynamic relations among the human parties to poetic utterances, as we would play a dramatic script or musical score. How to Play a Poem addresses critics ready to abandon New Criticism, teachers eager to rethink poetry, readers eager to enjoy it, and students willing to give it a chance, inviting them to discover a lively and enlivening way to animate familiar and unfamiliar poems. inventory #42048.
