Anarchive

Poetry. ANARCHIVE initiates an ongoing project that takes up the history of anarchist uprisings as a site for poetic archeology. ANARCHIVE investigates two propositions: that there is a necessarily familial relationship between poetry and anarchy, and that poetry is, moment by moment, built out of the inherent and sudden uprisings and insurgencies of language itself. Stephen Collis is a poet and critic who teaches literature at Simon Fraser University. He is the author of MINE, and the editor of the forthcoming COMPANIONS AND HORIZONS: AN ANTHOLOGY OF SFU POETRY.
