Haas, Benjamin David. "Autobiographical Performance Poetry as a Philosophy of [Authenticity]." OpenSIUC, 2010. https://opensiuc.lib.siu.edu/theses/273.

Abstract:
This thesis begins the process toward a concept of [authenticity] that is both fragmented and performative. I outline a history in philosophy and performance studies where authenticity has been deployed, and demonstrate how it is often tied to modernist ideologies. I then offer "[authenticity]," with brackets, as a means to allow for this term to challenge these modernist conceptions of the self. I then track the ways in which "[authenticity]" opens the possibilities for a new approach to performing by exploring my performance of the poem, "Hydrangeas."

Abstract:
This thesis takes three related observations as its point of departure. Drawing upon recent comments from lain Sinclair and Robert Sheppard, I initially present it as an investigation that intends to bring hitherto 'invisible' histories to a more tangible o field. Specifically, the histories in this thesis address the interactions between innovative poetry and performance. While this field of research has already produced several significant monographs and anthologies, they often focus almost exclusively on American poetry. Moreover, many of these studies seek to analyse the macroscopic phenom

Abstract:
Bob Cobbing (1920-2002) was a poet known for his performances and as an organiser of poetry events, as a participant in the British Poetry Revival, as a late-modernist and as a sound and concrete poet. This thesis seeks to reconfigure our view of Cobbing as a performer by considering his performances across a range of institutions to argue that this institutionalised nature was their defining aspect. It maps the transition from Cobbing’s defence of amateurism and localism in the 1950s to his self-definition as a professional poet in the mid 1960s and his attempt to professionalise poetry in th

Abstract:
"Poetry 'n Acts: The Cultural Politics of Twentieth-Century American Poets' Theater," focuses on the disciplinary blind spot that obscures the productive overlap between poetry and dramatic theater and prevents us from seeing the cultural work that this combination can perform. Why did 2100 people turn out in 1968 to see a play in which most of the characters speak only in such apparently nonsensical phrases as "Red hus the beat trim doing going" and "Achtung swachtung"? And why would an Obie award-winning playwright move to New Jersey to write such a play in the first place? What led to the f

Abstract:
Taarab in contemporary Zanzibar currently experiences great changes since the Nineties with the emerging and growing success of modern taarab. This has shocked the fans of the traditional style (taarab asilia) with musical and instrumental innovations, including powerful amplifiers and more danceable rhythms, but also textual innovations, using in their songs, commonly called mipasho, a sort of language and poetical imagery very open and non-disguised (Khamis 2002: 200). The perception of a split between the two musical and poetical styles is widely shared among the artists and fans of tradit

Abstract:
This thesis examines the political functions of the performance of skaldic poetry during the Viking Age. It aims to establish the vital role that skaldic verse plays in the establishment and maintenance of power, as well as the importance of skaldic performance in the negotiation of that power in the inter-community relations between various courts both within and outside of Viking Age Scandinavia. The first chapter provides a contextual understanding of Viking Age power structures by considering the central ideological constructs surrounding the concept of óðal (ancestral property). Óðal-de
