This article examines the work of Cree artist Brenda Draney, arguing that the apparent emptiness in her paintings paradoxically invites viewers to consider them within their immediate and longer-term historical contexts. The paintings’ spare depictions of rest call for an account of who is allowed luxuriance and who is prevented from working, what institutions and practices exist to support renewal and regeneration, and what remains after disposs…
Lyric beyond Containment
This introduction to the special issue Lyric beyond Containment does not propose to redefine lyric. Nor does it seek to inaugurate a new turn in literary criticism; this is not the “new new lyric studies.” Instead, it argues that lyric tropes, such as the speaking “I,” the address to an absent or anthropomorphized other, or the brief glimpse of finely wrought feeling, prove fruitful in theorizing material, historical, political, and literary form…
Poetics
This review examines five books published in the field of poetics in 2021: Andrea Brady’s Poetry and Bondage: A History and Theory of Lyric Constraint; Tobias Menely’s Climate and the Making of Worlds: Toward a Geohistorical Poetics; Kevin Quashie’s Black Aliveness, or A Poetics of Being; Rachel Zolf’s No One’s Witness: A Monstrous Poetics; and Timothy Yu’s Diasporic Poetics: Asian Writing in the United States, Canada, and Australia. Together, th…
Poetics
This review examines three books published in the field of poetics in 2020: Candice Amich’s Precarious Forms: Performing Utopia in the Neoliberal Americas; Ren Ellis Neyra’s The Cry of the Senses: Listening to Latinx and Caribbean Poetics; and Anthony Reed’s Soundworks: Race, Sound, and Poetry in Production. I show that these three books, which discuss poetry in connection with other art forms, each call for a reordering of the senses through whi…
Poetics
This chapter surveys scholarship in poetics published in 2019 that engages with concepts of ‘world’. I begin from the contention that poetics scholarship is at a crossroads: while questions of race, nation, and politics were often cast aside in poetry criticism of the late twentieth century in favor of considerations of modernist lineages and philosophical approaches to language, new work in poetics increasingly prioritizes the discussion of raci…
The Challenges of Partnering to Promote Health through Sport
Interagency partnerships and collaborations underpin a settings-based approach to health promotion in all settings, including sport. This study used an online concept mapping approach to explore the challenges that Regional Sports Assemblies (RSAs) in Victoria, Australia experienced when working in partnerships to develop and deliver physical activity programs in a community sport context. Participants from nine RSAs brainstormed 46 unique partne…
Elimination, Dispossession, Transcendence
This essay describes the US's dominant linguistic ideology, settler monolingualism, which works with other white supremacist logics to organize social life. I show that monolingualism's alignment of place, language, and culture plays a crucial role in settler colonialism's temporal-territorial claims. Then, I outline settler monolingualism's three key features: elimination, dispossession, and transcendence. Drawing on the work of Patrick Wolfe, I…
Elimination, in the Feminine
This essay analyzes the gendered ways in which settler states produce and manage their relationships to Indigenous women's deaths. I seek to complement Indigenous feminists’ critiques of the rhetoric of crime that predominates in conversations about murdered and missing Indigenous women, as well as Indigenous feminists’ analyses of the state's own masculinist violence. I argue the emotional–managerial performances by which contemporary settler st…
Feasibility Randomised Trial Comparing Two Forms of Mental Health Supported Accommodation (Supported Housing and Floating Outreach); a Component of the QuEST (Quality and Effectiveness of Supported Te…
Background: Mental health supported accommodation services are implemented across England, usually organised into a 'step-down' care pathway that requires the individual to repeatedly move as they gain skills and confidence for more independent living. There have been no trials comparing the effectiveness of different types of supported accommodation, but two widely used models (supported housing and floating outreach) have been found to provide …
Translingual Poetics
Teaching Ferguson
In the wake of protests following the nonindictments of police for the killing of unarmed African Americans in Ferguson and elsewhere, schools across North America created courses discussing historical and contemporary events leading up to these deaths and the #BlackLivesMatter movement. The authors created and taught such a course during the winter of 2015; this article reflects on our experience and places it within the context of neoliberal hi…
“How Lucky I Was to Be Free and Safe at Home”
Miné Okubo’s Citizen 13660 is praised for its unique visual and textual depiction of the Japanese internment camps during the Second World War. However, it has also been found lacking for its failure to conform to readerly expectations of resistance. In this article I read Okubo’s use of humor in light of Avery F. Gordon’s description of the prisoner’s curse. If Japanese internment was intended not only to isolate a potentially dangerous “enemy r…

Racial Things, Racial Forms
They Were Girls
This essay tracks the reception of the story of the Bengali wolf girls, Amala and Kamala, in the American popular media of the 1940s. I argue that the terms of that decade’s debates are taken on some sixty years later when Bhanu Kapil, an Asian American poet, revisits the wolf girls’ story in her third book, Humanimal [a project for future children] . For commentators in the 1940s, animality is the ground condition for bodily health and normality…

And Through Its Naming Became Owner
In this essay I read the long poem Tokinish by the Mohawk poet James Thomas Stevens. Stevens borrows passages of prose description from Roger Williams's 1643 Narragansett lexicon, A Key into the Language of America, as well as the earlier text's structure of facing columns of English and Narragansett words. Appropriations from Williams's lexicon introduce the figure of translation into the poem and also allow Stevens to create echoes between pres…
