Tracking/Teaching: On Documentary Poetics

0/5 ( ratings)

EP 21.

What happens when the historian thinks of herself as a writer, as a poet? Or when the poet turns historical researcher/writer? Some of the foremost documentary poets of today discuss how to combine a commitment to facts with a commitment to the imagination.

Excerpt:

The word document in English first meant to teach, from the Latin docere: to show. For me, documentary poetry has more to do with learning than teaching. . . . I [prefer] the phrase ?investigative poetry,? which in literal terms means to be in the footprints, to follow the track .
