Overview
The Unsignificant: Three Talks on Poetry and Picturesis a selection of lectures that poet and Griffin Awardfinalist Srikanth Reddy presented for the Bagley Wright Lecture Series in 2015.True to its title, The Unsignificant is concerned with what its not aboutnot the logical proofs of philosophy but the affective flux of poetry. The lectures approach poetry from Homer to Gertrude Stein to Ronald Johnson obliquely, refracted through images such as Brueghels Landscape with Fall of Icarus, Hermann Rorschachs inkblots, or Galileos drawings of the moon. Ranging from pictorial backgrounds in visual art to portraiture and similes to the poetics of wonder, The Unsignificant embarks on an unsystematic, errant, and eccentric tour of Western poetry and poetics from the ancient world to our continuous present.
