N2 - In this collective article, we argue for a wider recognition of Lily Greenham’ssound poetry, underscoring her artistic uses of multilingualismand transnational collaboration. The form of the article is conceptual:in order to signal the importance given to poetry as a collaborative andtransnational activity in Greenham’s oeuvre, we have chosen to write thearticle in six languages and as a collaboration between six scholars withdifferent backgrounds. The form of the article moreover refects the privilegegiven to language as material, structure, and activity in Greenham’sworks. The purpose of our article is thus twofold: while we seek to initiatean academic reception of Greenham’s works and to highlight these asimportant contributions to the traditionally male-dominated historiographyof sound poetry, we also seek to examine how academic writing can alterits conventional forms in order to address works that are not ideally suitedfor hermeneutic or exegetic acts of reading
