Poetry and Bondage - Contours: The Cambridge Literary Studies Hour

In this episode of Contours: The Cambridge Literary Studies Hour, Ato Quayson sits down with Andrea Brady, winner of the Truman Capote Award for Literary Criticism, to discuss her groundbreaking book, 'Poetry and Bondage'. Brady’s work traces the history of poetic constraint, exploring how poets—from Ovid to Phillis Wheatley, Emily Dickinson to Lisa Robertson—have compared verse to bondage. By listening to the voices of enslaved and imprisoned poets, Poetry and Bondage challenges traditional understandings of the lyric and interrogates the whiteness of literary criticism, offering fresh possibilities for politically and ethically engaged poetry today.
