Liberature is a literary genre, embracing these literary works in which the writer deliberately fuses the text and non-verbal, material features of the book in order to create an integral piece of literary art, and in which the objecthood of the literary text is nothing but transparent. Its name derived from Latin "liber", i.e. "book," and also "free", to point out to the poets’ and writers’ liberties they take with the material aspects of their books. A work of liberature makes use of typography, layout, illustrations and other graphic or iconic elements, the structure of the book, its format, sometimes even the kind and colour of paper or other material (such as glass, transparent plastic sheets, or stone) to convey meanings or impressions that enriches, complements (or contradicts) the verbal message of a narrative or a poem. Though suggested in 1999 by a Polish poet Zenon Fajfer in manifesto-like article "Liberature. An Appendix to the Dictionary of Literary Terms" and further theoretically developed by the author of the article, the concept of liberature this kind of writing can be traced back at least to Laurence Sterne’s inventive subversion of the conventions of the printed book. Many further examples can be found in modernism. The article demonstrates how liberature may be useful in an analysis of such texts as Wyndham Lewis’s magazine Blast, Ezra Pound’s Cantos, Joyce’s Work in Progress booklets published in the 1930s and even his Finnegans Wake itself.
