Description
The heat of Beowulf develops a new approach to the aesthetics of Beowulf by engaging the work of twentieth-century poets Robin Blaser and Jack Spicer, whose avant-garde poetics were informed by a serious encounter with the poem in the seminar of medieval Arthur G. Brodeur. With implications for translation theory, ecopoetics and the relationship of aesthetics to disability, the book argues that the aesthetics of Beowulf function as a kind of sensory prosthesis that deforms the human sensorium-not with the stability, solidity, and balance sometimes assigned to the poem, but with kinetic, unstable, and interruptive activity. A fundamentally comparative work, this is a book about Beowulf that will not only interest students and researchers of Old English poetry, but also of twentieth-century avant-garde poetry and poetics, ecopoetics, aesthetics, translation, phenomenology, disability studies.
