Paperback. Muriel Rukeyser has many faces: poet, biographer, theorist, playwright, novelist, story-writer, filmmaker, translator, ethnographer, and innovator of social, documentary poetics; feminist, queer, Jewish, single mother, and social justice activist. Yet above all, she was a poet. Threaded through her work, politics, and life was the conviction that poetry is an animating force that connects people and disciplines. Recent years have seen a surge of renewed interest in Rukeyser's work, bringing her back into public consciousness as a crucial voice on the relations between poetry and social life in America and beyond. Beyond Ourselves is the first volume of its kind to comprehensively consider the continued urgency and lasting legacy of Rukeyser's work as a key source and inspiration for poets working today. Volume editors Catherine Gander and Stefania Heimboth scholars and poetshave gathered critical and creative contributions from some of the most innovative, exciting, and socially engaged poets writing today. In lyric and braided essays, scholarly critique, hybrid investigations, documentary collages, and collaborative poetry, these poets dive deeply into Muriel Rukeyser's work and life to interrogate, explore, and challenge the models she provides for thinking and writing in our own social, political, and poetic moment. These essays address a range of themes, from the transhistorical politics of motherhood and contemporary relational and feminist poetics of war to communal history via documentary film and the possibilities of coalition-building beyond borders. As in Rukeyser's own work, the forms of these texts animate their inquiries. Beyond Ourselves is a volume at the intersections of creative and critical thought, reflecting on how Rukeyser's expansive body of work offers a vision for, as she writes, "a kind of imagination with which to meet the world." Contributors: Daniel Borzutzky, Susan Briante, Catherine Gander, Stacy Hardy, Stefania Heim, Erika Meitner, Philip Metres, Jena Osman, Deborah Paredez, Khadijah Queen, Solmaz Sharif, and Nomi Stone. This groundbreaking collection gathers essays, poems, and hybrid works from contemporary poets who engage in the legacy of Muriel Rukeyser (1913-1980) and her enduring influence as a poet, activist, and innovator who bridged art and social life, emphasizing that poetry was at the heart of her life and politics.
