an invitation

 

Dear Art Predator,

 

It is my pleasure to invite you to participate in the University of Arizona Poetry Center’s Symposium “Conceptual Poetry and Its Others” from May 29-31, 2008. 

 

This symposium will explore the role of conceptual poetics in contemporary literature. I would hope that your work as both a poet and educator will be enhanced by the conversation among U.S., Canadian, Australian, and European experts in the field and I am certain that your expertise will further the conversation in new and unexpected ways.  As is clear from your literary projects, your interests and insights are well-aligned with those of the Conceptual Poetry and Its Others Symposium.

 

We hope that you will be inspired to respond in writing to Conceptual Poetry and Its Others.  If you are, we would be delighted to consider your response for our electronic newsletter and/or a website offering audio/visual elements and documents from the Symposium. All written responses must be received by Friday, June 6 for consideration.

 

You can learn more about Conceptual Poetry and Its Others on our website at www.poetrycenter.arizona.edu. Please note that our registration deadline is May 23, 2008.  If you have any additional questions, feel free to contact me at (520)626-1185 or sjoberg@u.arizona.edu.

 

I sincerely hope that you will be able to join us.

 

Respectfully,

 

Frances Sjoberg
