Samenvatting:
Fieldworks offers a historical account of the social, rhetorical, and material attempts to ground art and poetry in the physicality of a site.Arguing that place-oriented inquiries allowed poets and artists to develop new, experimental models of historiography and ethnography, Lytle Shaw draws out the shifting terms of this practice from World War II to the present through a series of illuminating case studies. Beginning with the alternate national genealogies unearthed by William Carlos Williams in Paterson and Charles Olson in Gloucester, Shaw demonstrates how, Introduction: the penning of the field -- Boring location: from place to site in Williams and Smithson -- Olson's archives: fieldwork in new American poetry -- Everyday archaic: the space of ethnopoetics -- Baraka's Newark: performing the black arts -- Nonsite Bolinas: presence in the poets' polis -- Smithson's "Judd": androids in the expanded field -- Smithson's prose: the grounds of genre -- Faulting description: Mayer, Coolidge, and the site of scientific authority -- Docents of discourse: the logic of dispersed sites -- Afterword: measuring sites, unbinding measures.
