Peter Manson (1969-) is a poet and translator of poetry from Glasgow. With Robin Purves, Manson co-edited the poetry magazine, Object
Permanence, from Glasgow, between 1994 and 1997, establishing vital transatlantic
links between experimental poets from the UK and Ireland and the US. In October
2017, a symposium dedicated to Manson’s poetry and translations was held at the
University of Glasgow, including an evening of celebratory readings and music, and
a poetry reading by Manson. This special issue of the Journal of British and Irish
Innovative Poetry collects essays extending many of the papers given that weekend.
