Poetry and New Media in Modern America
During the summer of 2013, I will be continuing my research on American poetry, exploring: 1) how poetry was broadcast, transmitted, and projected by non-print and “new” media forms like magic lanterns, radio, film, and television; and 2) what poetry added to new media in the way of cultural prestige or popular appeal.

2013 Summer Research Project from Alba Newmann Holmes
