Five poetry manifestos
Here are some early poetry manifestos. Interesting in their own right, but nowadays seen as nothing more than a cheap publicity shot. It will probably take a century of more before anyone pays any attention to a new one.
The Concrete Poetry Manifesto of Augusto De Campo
Marinetti's manifesto for futurism
Isidore isou's manifesto of letterist poetry
Amy Lowell on the manifesto of imagism
Lawrence Ferlinghetti's Populist Manifesto No. 1
