Participants will engage with her iconic work, updating her rules using new media and visual expression to say something entirely new. 每次惊艳之后, 特殊的, 充满活力的, 制作令人难忘或滑稽的页面, we will gather them into a new collection of poetry and art that could only have been made by our community.

关于媒体

九音节出版社 is a chapbook press created in partnership with the Boutelle-Day Poetry Center at 澳门葡京博彩软件. We seek to address ongoing inequity in the publishing world by providing a new platform for systematically excluded voices, 包括但不限于女性, BIPOC诗人, 以及跨性别/ lgbtqi++诗人. 9SP honors and continues the long tradition of poets and poetry at Smith, including Sylvia Plath ‘55 while extending that community to the other Seven Sisters colleges and beyond.

9SP believes chapbooks are whole books, not just abbreviations. We love books as art objects themselves, as well as the words inside them. Each summer, we hold a chapbook contest, open to all who identify as women. In our first summer contest, we received over 290 submissions.

9SP is currently the only press at a historic women’s college in the US.

廉价的小册子比赛

PYX/BKX 202的学生 & 203 get publishing and design experience that can go on their resumes. 在秋季学期, PYX/BKX 202 students read the chapbook submissions, learn about the publishing industry, and narrow down the submissions to a top 10, which get sent on to our final judge. 2023年，那个法官就是莱拉·查蒂. The winning poet will give a reading at 澳门葡京博彩软件 and receive a $500 prize, in addition to the publication of their chapbook.

In the spring semester, PYX/BKX 203 students learn about book design. Each student creates an interior design and cover design for the winning chapbook, one of which may get chosen and used for the printed book. 在23年春天, Smithie Amelia Burton created the design for our first printed volume, an anthology of nine contemporary poets titled 我的手紧紧握住我的另一只手: Women Poets & 身体.

The cover of My Hand Holding Tight my Other Hand: Women Poets & The Body, with an oil painting of flowers as the background.

我的手紧紧握住我的另一只手

In this premiere anthology from 九音节出版社, nine contemporary poets embrace complexity and ambiguity, the uncomfortable realities of navigating intersectional womanhood, and reach for connection across experience. This collection creates space for both individual expression and collective catharsis. Featuring nine of the most distinguished voices in poetry today, it will change the way you look at yourself and the world.

艾德里·罗斯编辑. Contributions by Victoria Chang, Tiana Clark, Camille T. 邓吉，托林. greathouse, Ada利, Layli Long Soldier, Aurielle Marie, Molly McCully Brown, and Sarah Vap.

“The Poem I Wish I Had Read” Series

We’re excited to announce the launch of “The Poem I Wish I Had Read,” a video series in which acclaimed poets discuss and read a single poem that they wish they had encountered as a teenager. In each of these video testimonials, poets talk about who they were as high school students, why reading these poems would have been transformational for them, and how these works altered their sense of what a poem can be. Enjoy the following featured videos, and check out the full series on 我们的YouTube频道.—马特·多诺万
