catalogs by culture

e-poets.net continues with our artist catalog project. Any given artist may belong to any number of constituent cultures. Cultures may be based upon anthropological terms, such as ethnicity, gender identity/preference, primary language, or place of residence. Cultures may also be defined by more subjective but equally significant terms such as philosophy, religion, or aesthetics. We render this as an aid to study, and to cultivate dialogue among the cultures we will highlight in the months to come.


of Canada

catalog added 7 November 2006

Our fourth culture-based catalog celebrates the diverse sounds of Canadian audiopoetry. e-poets.net proudly offers of Canada.

Is it the long winter nights spent by the radio, listening to news, novels, or writers of national renown? Or is it simply a strong attachment to literacy that blends with a keen sense of sound and music? Canada's vast landscape offers ample room for diverse and poignant poetic voices, some of which you can sample in this special Book of Voices catalog.
