Description: Novel - Poetry examines the verse - novel - - a hybrid genre that emerged in the middle decades of Britain's nineteenth century - - to make a larger claim about the nature of genre and formal structures for time action and identity that cross genres. The volume uncovers trajectories of literary influence that structure our approach to literature and affect how we shape our lives lives which are often constrained by cause - and - effect and narrative - driven ways of approaching time and possibility. Novel - Poetry tracks an alternative way of thinking about time and event that was inspired by the French Revolution popularized by Lord Byron and explored by experimental Victorian poets such as Elizabeth Barrett Browning Robert Browning Arthur Hugh Clough and George Meredith. The volume turns to the work of philosophers Alain Badiou Jean - Pierre Dupuy and Slavoj % Zi%zek to theorize this alternative mode which it aligns with the "futur ant rieur." The temporality of the future anterior disrupts both the novel's realist chronologies and the expressivist lyric's cult of "the moment " thus liberating possibilities for collective action. Ranging widely across romantic lyric poetry Victorian novels and nineteenth - century and contemporary literary theory Novel - Poetry asks what alternative structures and temporalities does a focus on either realistic narrative or the lyric moment occlude? Are there ways of thinking about lived experience and personal or collective agency that do not conform to traditional models ways that the verse - novel might help us to explore? What might be gained today from trying to think about ourselves and our world outside of established frameworks that are now so naturalized as to feel almost inescapable?
