Hey Lizzie!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fascinating project. So original, unique. I just spent a while exploring (initially in a linear fashion, but ultimately - inevitably? - in a non-linear approach) and I can't imagine digesting this abundance of information in any other format.
In addition to presenting your past research, I love that, as a live site, it's a forum for current responses and future happenings. That aspect of the thesis allows for such untapped possibilities for reader involvement: it can be constantly updated with new criticism featuring new poets, so it never becomes an out-dated/aged literary criticism but rather a perpetually contemporary cultural criticism. In that way it has the potential to be the spoken-word poetry version of a weekly literary arts newspaper supplement. In other words, this is just the beginning!
Kudos!
