Notes

  • Research background

    'Can ‘literary poetics’ ‘claim an engagement’ with planetary crises (Potter 2005)? My ecocritical ekphrasis attempts writing inside the more-than-human. Ekphrasis differently articulates ‘nonverbal, aestheticised objects’ (Haywood 2014: 107). Muecke asks: ‘what if … we wrote … from our necessary … convocation with … non-human things?’ (2008: 292). Burns says that the prose poem is, in contrast to other poetic forms, ‘more humble … more subtle. It knows the potential … of not being too obvious’ (1989: 28-9).'
