Beschreibung:
Tyne Daile Sumner is a researcher and teacher at the University of Melbourne, Australia. Her work explores the relationship between literature and surveillance, with a focus on the ways that poetry is engaged with concepts such as privacy, identity, confession and subjectivity in the context of digital technology and the increasing datafication of everyday life.
This book presents the first detailed study of the relationship between poetry and surveillance. It critically examines the close connection between American lyric poetry and a burgeoning U.S. state surveillance apparatus from 1920 through the 1960s.
Introduction: The Observed of All Observers 1. Towards A Theory of The Lyric Eye 2. Hoover's Optics: Bureau Reading and Impractical Criticism 3. Surveillance Poetics Abroad 4. Surveillance Poetics at Home. Conclusion: Poetry in The Age of Dataveillance
