It is the advantage of the typewriter that, due to its rigidity and its space precisions, it can, for a poet, indicate exactly the breath, the pauses, the suspensions even of syllables, the juxtapositions even of parts of phrases, which he intends. For the first time the poet has the stave and the bar a musician has had. For the first time he can, without the convention of rime and meter, record the listening he has done to his own speech and by that one act indicate how he would want any reader, silently or otherwise, to voice his work. [Charles Olson, "Projective Verse," 1950]
打字机的优点在于,由于其刚性和空间精度,对于诗人来说,它可以准确地指示他打算的呼吸、停顿、甚至音节的悬挂,短语部分的并置。诗人第一次拥有了音乐家所拥有的五线谱和小节。他第一次可以在不使用韵律和节拍的约定的情况下,记录他对自己演讲的倾听,并通过这一行为表明他希望任何读者,无论是默读还是其他方式,如何朗读他的作品。[查尔斯·奥尔森(Charles Olson),《投射诗歌》(Projective Verse),1950年]
