New Ultraisms

- A Social Poetics

Om New Ultraisms

A malleable concept, 'Ultraism' was born in early twentieth century Spain as an attempt to innovate poetic techniques in response to the dominant at the time European trends of futurism, dadaism and surrealism. However, 'Ultraism' was already etymologically and contextually embedded in the extreme post-World War I political philosophies of belief and action that would lead to the 'final solution'. Where Ultraist poetry narrated modernity's hypermobile stylistics of the enervating urban life, the anonymous masses of the streets, and the increasing mechanisation of sociality, Hitler's Ultraism would result in the dehumanization of planetary futures. This collection of poems asks a burning question: is the twenty first century harbouring the preconditions for a return of what humanity thought was not going to be repeated again?
