Echo Alternators
註釋"Echo Alternators takes an in-depth look at the methods of homophonic composition: the sounds of language freed from their original sense and recycled into new meaning. These techniques have often been used in literary composition, and their importance to the work of Raymond Roussel, the patron saint of surrealists and of the Oulipo, is fully discussed. Other methods come from Jonathan Swift's 'Trifles' and from Louis and Celia Zukofsky's homophonic translation of Catullus. Still others share some playful pleasures, such as 'Anguish Languish, ' 'Poetry for Dogs, ' and the rebus."--Publisher description.
