America a Prophecy (1974)


"Rothenberg and Quasha’s brilliant anthology America a Prophecy (1974), proposes a new way of reading poetry, through a transitive poetics that insists that poems realize themselves not through solo reading nor through the intercontexualizations of biography, schools of poetry, or even aesthetic positions; only when poems are read as contributions to collective enquiry, political challenge, and the subscription of sacred powers, can they reach their potential."
