This book includes conceptual printed works, poem-objects, texts for performance, and computational poetry that shape a posthumanist understanding which is "situated". Part of the material turn, it fashions modes of complex embodiment in relation to the global crises of our moment: environmental, economic and ethical.

Fiona Becket is Professor of Contemporary Poetics in the School of English, University of Leeds. She has written books and articles on aspects of modernist literature, visual poetry and poetics.
