  • More about Poetry, Architecture, and the New York School: Something Like a Liveable Space


Poetry, Architecture, and the New York School explores the relationship between poetics and architecture in the work of the first generation New York School poets, revealing how the built environment shapes the poetic imagination and how poetry alters the way we read and inhabit architectural space.

Format: Hardback
Length: 247 pages
Publication date: 21 December 2023
Publisher: Springer International Publishing AG


Poetry, Architecture, and the New York School: Something Like a Liveable Space explores the relationship between poetics and architecture in the work of the first generation New York School poets, Frank OHara, John Ashbery, Barbara Guest, and James Schuyler. Reappraising the much-debated New York School label, Mae Losasso reveals how these writers constructed poetic spaces, structures, surfaces, and apertures and sought to figure themselves and their readers in relation to these architextual sites. In doing so, Losasso reveals how the built environment shapes the poetic imagination and how, in turn, poetry alters the way we read and inhabit architectural space. Animated by archival research and architectural photographs, Poetry, Architecture, and the New York School marks a decisive interdisciplinary turn in New York School studies and offers new frameworks for thinking about postmodern American poetry in the twenty-first century.
