| Description: |
Grounded in aesthetics, these papers of Morag Harris show aspects of her investigation into the creative tensions of past and present, masculine and feminine, all of which are explored by the poet's need to immerse him or herself in poetic tradition, and then to emerge from it individuated. |
| Synopsis: |
The work of Morag Harris is firmly grounded in the domain of aesthetics. Her interests lie in the linguistic transformations that take place when the received signs of conventional poetic language metamorphose into the idiosyncratic symbols of a new poem. At the same time this transformation reflects an increment of increase in the identity of the poet, as a poet - a fusion of objective and subjective to create a third thing. |
