<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Through the idea of the vocalic space of the poem, alongside the poem 'as' and poem 'of' space, Spatial Engagement with Poetry re-establishes the voice and space as equally important, and necessarily interlinked, elements of poetic production and engagement. The study looks at ideas of space and constructions of voice in poetry through the inherently spatial processes of affective, vocalic, and critical identification and map-making we undergo in the acts of reading and voicing the poem. The study uses a multidisciplinary literary-critical methodology, combining broad attention to literary theory and poetics with the finer details of close reading individual poems. Examples are drawn from a broad range of poets, and particular attention paid to contemporary British poetry"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Drawing from a broad range of contemporary British poets, including Thomas Kinsella, Kathleen Jamie, and Alice Oswald, this study examines the inherently spatial and affective nature of our engagement with poetry. Adding to the expanding field of geocritical studies, Yeung specifically discusses ideas of space and constructions of voice in poetry.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Spatial Engagement with Poetry is an important book in the field of literary geocriticism; its readings carefully explore the various spaces in the work of four significant contemporary poets and it provides a lively methodology that should be read by all serious geocritics."
