The Lyric Subject: A Reconceptualization - Hardcover

by Wojciech H. Kalaga (Other), Varja Balzalorsky Antic (Author)

The book takes a detour in perspective from the traditional lyric subject to the poetic subject as a historical-anthropological and discursive-artistic concept. In each new enunciation of the poem as intersubjective event, this kind of dispositive creates a singularity based on the variously activated focal points of subjectivity in the text.
