It is a manuscript written in and through the rhythm and practice of walking and it is a collection written in and through the rhythm and practice of music, and many of its speakers reflect such practices in the poems’ subject matter and their points of view. The above influences and crafting of sound, particularly as reflected through music-making, also join lenses of ecological and theological focus, that of a distinctly Midwestern landscape and through a deeply ambivalent searching enacted chiefly via the appropriation of Catholic prayer forms and language, respectively. Together these interworking planes shift and stir behind the most important work of the collection: that of a speaker’s interrogations of the distinction between the body and the self as these two entities clash in their experience of chronic pain. 2020 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1587130844445163 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1587130844445163 restricted--full text unavailable until 2025-05-13 This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: some rights reserved.
