THE OULIPO COMPENDIUM is a dictionary of mathematical constraints used in the composition of literature. The Oulipo's foremost concern has been to devise formal constraints and compose a few examples of each for the express purpose of pointing to the potential these formalisms create. Oulipian constraints have been responsible for some of the most original works of literature ever produced.

Seller's Description:
Very Good. 8 1/4" X 9" This is the first comprehensive survey of the Workshop for Potential Literature (Ouvroir de litterature potentielle) founded by Raymond Queneau and Francois Le Lionais in 1960 to explore how abstract restrictions could be combined with imaginative writing (as in Georges Perec's novel written without the letter e); it includes a complete translation of Queneau's 100, 000, 000, 000, 000 Poems, the work that led to Oulipo's creation; Jacques Roubaud's extensive account of Oulipo's history and practice; documentation of Oulipian writing techniques, with translated or original examples; analyses of Oulipian works; and biographical, bibliographical, and theoretical information with photographs and illustrations; John Ashbery writes that "By substituting formidably strict forms for Surrealism's controversial notion of 'total liberty', the Oulipo has created an amazingly beautiful and profound body of literature, which this long-awaited volume at last brings to the attention of English-speaking readers.
