Paperback. Zustand: New. How is a lyric poem like a polygraph machine? A personal, poetic examination of the technology of truth-telling.Eric Schmaltz's I Confess delves into the complexities of truth-telling in poetry, and the history of technologies designed to produce truth from willing and unwilling subjects, considering what it means to use a device - poetry or polygraph - to draw out one's most profound feelings and emotions.Exploring the intersection of power, technology, and language, I Confess meditates on lie detection and its history, including trials by ordeal and pseudoscientific technologies.

In the 1960s, bissett's renown as an experimental poet was growing as his social and political concerns were stirred by the voice of the counterculture. Acorn, inspired by socialist theory and imagism, was building his reputation as a poet on the margin who ran against the grain of the literary establishment.

I Want to Tell You Love is a work of friendship, a shared vision of resistance, and a mutual longing for a better world.This critical edition offers the manuscript in its intended form alongside contextualizing scholarship in a significant contribution to literary history. I Want to Tell You Love offers an opportunity to reevaluate the nature and scope of Canadian poetry during a critical time of national cultural awakening. …
