| dc.description.abstract | This abstract bleats a space and Agnes approves. This dissertation interrogates the boundaries between genres. The critical component of this thesis explores genre rupture as a method of locating threshold spaces within language systems that open disciplinary boundaries to the contaminative effects of different dimensions of observation. This portion of the thesis also examines the work of Gertrude Stein and contemporary innovative writers Lisa Robertson and Lyn Hejinian. These writers all engage with genre at the level of the sentence, exploring the sentence as a site of rupture in order to expose the relationship between upturning this site and more open-ended and fluid subjectivities. The substantive creative component of this dissertation, a manuscript entitled Turtle Crumbles the Visible, examines the boundaries between genres through the documentation of shifting relationships between the subjectivity of three characters, Turtle, Emerson, and Gaia, and the increasingly un-coordinated spaces that they begin to inhabit. | |
