Evans will be talking about "The Poetics of Phonotextuality"--or the sound(s) of sounding poetry. Evans will offer "a systematic introduction to an exciting new development in the field of poetics (and literary studies more generally), the emergence of 'phonotextual' studies concerned with the analysis and interpretation of poems not just as printed texts but as voiced structures whose meaning can be 'sounded' as well as seen."</div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; min-height: 14px; "><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><font face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: 12.0px Helvetica">Evans is at the forefront of this field, as the links below will attest. </font></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; min-height: 14px; "><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><font face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: 12.0px Helvetica">Evans has sent a list of audio links that will set up this conversation. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;">It is very important that people listen to the first one, as that will take the place of any formal talk or paper.
