From: "Santos, Marlisa" <[email protected]> CFP: Verse, Voice, and Vision: Cinema and Poetry (edited collection) The various intersections of poetry, one of the oldest art forms, and film, one of the newest art forms, highlight the relevance of poetry in the modern world. Poetry has been considered in film in many ways: the use of poetry through biopics of poets (ancient to contemporary), studies of particular directors who make widespread use of poetry in their films (e.g., Woody Allen), specific poems/poets that feature frequently in films, a specific poem that drives a specific film (e.g. Splendor in the Grass), poetry films/poetic cinema etc. All treatments of this topic are welcome. Please send 250-word abstracts and short bios to Marlisa Santos ([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>) by May 1, 2012. Completed essays due by December 31, 2012.
