This book aims to draw maps about Polypoetry around Europe and Americas. It gathers scholars, and artists who dedicated their work for understanding the avant-gardes expressions in print, sound, and visual language. Polypoetry is a way to do art, and a way to be poetry, thus emancipating people in society by the reflexive and innovative use of language. Polypoetry is the presence that effects poetry. That is why its Manifesto published in Valencia, Spain, in 1987, remains actual.
