<nettime> spaciality of poetry


i am a research phd candidate.  i am studying the spaces in which poetry exist.
much australian poetry is concerned with mapping landscapes, physical and
psychological.  since composing hypermedia poetry for cyberspace i have started
to re-read published printed poetry and find that whilst most poetry maps a
surface of sorts, there is printed poetry which places me in a space(i think
it's inside my head), a space for logical thought or imagination. there is also
poetry which describes a space 'between' objects, between people rather than
mapping surfaces.

if anyone can suggest theorists who have already identified 'surface' and
'space' in poetry, i would be very grateful.

regards
komninos
