konkrete poesie

First published in 1972, the volume "konkrete poesie" has itself long since become an authoritative part of the history of this avant-garde poetic form after the Second World War. Eugen Gomringer, co-founder of concrete poetry and editor of the anthology, now presents a considerably expanded new edition. It makes it obvious that this form of poetry, which plays with language, is still highly alive in the 21st century. Newly included authors are: Hannes Bajohr, Ute Bernhard, Friedrich W. Block, Ingrid Isermann, Michael Lentz, Cia Rinne, Axel Rohlfs, Volker Seitz.
