The Concrete Coin of Speech
Instigating question: What does a concrete poem communicate? In the widest sense, one could answer that a concrete poem communicates the same things as any other kind of poem. That is, it does not communicate the same things as discourse, using this word in the sense given it by Susanne K. Langer as language in its literal use (1957:71).

Concrete Poetry
The Chinese 'word,' or ideogram, for red is based on things everyone KNOWS. (Pound 1960:22). Concrete poetry, going beyond the application of ideogrammic process as practiced by Pound, introduces space into the ideogram as a substantive element of poetic structure.

Traditionally, studies of this work have stressed its chaotic quality and consequent difficulty. The consensus of the critics is that Neruda allowed his subconscious to overflow spontaneously into these poems. His work was held to be unpolished, and …
