In a context of social unrest marked by May 1968, feminist revolt, and the Vietnam War, Italian and Belgian experimental poets drew a cutting-edge roadmap within the intercultural and multilingual landscape of the European visual poetry phenomenon by creating a unique model of interdisciplinary cooperation, whereby transculturalism, verbovisual research, and social criticism converged. Based on an integrated methodology combining the fields of visual arts, comparative literature, and intermedia studies, this volume is the first major publication to adopt interartistic and comparative perspectives in order to approach the Italo-Belgian relational axis in the field of international postwar visual poetics with regard to historic avant-gardes, transnational networks, and counterculture literary magazines.
