Its ancestry goes back to pre-historic picture writing and the anagrams of early Christian monks; it has affinities with the oriental ideogram, and, in our century, with Apollinaire's Calligrammes, the work of Klee and Schwitters, and the experiments in visual form of Cummings, Dylan Thomas, and the Dadaists and Surrealists. \u003cem\u003eOnce Again\u003c\/em\u003e is not so much an anthology, though it includes the work of 54 poets from 10 countries, as a group presentation, designed to be read as a consecutive visual happening. It has been assembled by Jean-François Bory, an editor of the Paris magazine \u003cem\u003eApproches\u003c\/em\u003e and the author of \u003cem\u003ePlein Signe\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eHeight Texts + 1\u003c\/em\u003e and other Concrete books. Bory has provided an introduction which traces the history of the movement and analyzes its aesthetic. He also comments on individual poems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 132\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.31 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 17, 1968\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42130701582471,"sku":"9780811200103","price":18.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/bca319165251989c307a7e8ca31f0c8d.webp?v=1732613052","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/once-again-paperback-2","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
