Overview

Guided by theoretical, philosophical, experiential, and ethical understanding, Poetic Inquiry is positioned as a way of becoming in an animate cosmos-a co-creative world pulsing in-to and out-of existence. This positioning does not reflect an ontological turn in the field. Rather, it claims a place that has always already been yet not differentiated within Poetic Inquiry publications, gatherings, and arts-oriented research communities. This collection calls unwaveringly for listeners and readers to question their embodied experience of reality so to recognize the interdependence between their bodies and the breathing earth-the easterly winds, aspen's sibling roots, and morning's quilled songs; these elements are not separable. With its companion publication, ""Poetic Inquiry for Synchrony and Love: A New Order of Gravity,"" a special issue in Art Research International: A Transdisciplinary Journal, Fidyk and St. Georges called for poetic words, poetic images, and poetic inquiring that honour the dynamic dimensions of the full breath of life: birth, death, and regeneration. Seeking to support their growing international community through collective rhythm and mutual breath, they sought what is precious, bejeweled, and sacred, while offering a curative for catastrophic times. Here, poets, authors, educators, scholars, artists, and activists boldly gather. They imagine, feel, intuit, and haptically perceive to re-centre researching, teaching, learning, living. Together, their vibrant work renders Poetic Inquiry a research approach, a perspective, not only as previously used: a method, a research tool, and an under theorized methodology. As a way of relating, mourning, and loving, Poetic Inquiry offers renewal, even revitalization, by remembering the potency of poetic consciousness and existential mysteries.
