Our personal modes of access to arts and culture shift
dramatically with the progression of time and new innovative techniques of dispersal.
For instance, it took music approximately 50 years to evolve from a
round-topped jukebox to a portable MP3 player. Nevertheless, with change,
opinions collide. The greater accessibility to music online created an insatiable
appetite for instant downloads, but a departure from hard copy formats such as
CDs.
Stories, books, and poems have been around for as long
as music, but now is the time when prose and poetry publications go digital in
the same way that music once transformed. It is now the books’ turn to morph
into a more easily accessible “click-of-the-button” download.
Here at the WFU Press, we are eager to find new ways
of sharing our poetry so that our readers will enjoy the benefits of digital
publishing. We are not turning away from physical books, but instead offering
the option of downloadable e-books which will soon include access to supplementary
material such as images, reviews, and recitations by the poet. Our goal is to
preserve the integrity of the individual poems—keeping them in the same format
as in print, but to offer material beyond
the lines. As Wake Forest’s Digital Publishing guru, Bill Kane, puts it, the “beauty
of poetry is not just the black ink, but the white space.”
As of now, you can access digital copies of Sleep Lessons by John Montague, A Hundred Doors by Michael Longley, and The Winter Sleep of Captain Lemass by
Harry Clifton as e-books! Not only that,
but you can also purchase individual poems from our digital publishing website.
The flexibility of downloads is more-than-gradually becoming infinite.
At the Press, we are busy thinking, researching, and
designing new ways of providing our Irish poetry lovers with innovative ways of
enjoying reading beyond the text.
AND! We want your help! We are currently looking for a
catchy name and/or phrase specific to Wake Forest University and Irish poetry
that will advertise our specialized e-books. Post submissions here or email
them to WFUpress@wfu.edu
