Book excerpt: "The Banquet (Il Convito)" by Dante Alighieri is an unfinished work which consists of four books, or, "tratatti": a prefatory one, plus three books that each include a canzone and a prose allegorical interpretation or commentary of the poem. The Convivio is a kind of vernacular encyclopedia of the knowledge of Dante's time; it touches on many areas of learning, not only philosophy but also politics, linguistics, science, astronomy, and history. The treatise begins with the prefatory book, or proem, which explains why a book like the Convivio is needed and why Dante is writing it in the vernacular instead of Latin. It is one of Dante's early defenses of the vernacular

Book excerpt: One of the surest signs of fame among men is when one is known solely by his first name, and yet the mention of just that first name makes clear who is being spoken of. So it is with Dante Alighieri (1265-1321), known simply as Dante, thanks to the success of his Divine Comedy, one of the seminal works in human history. With the Divine Comedy, Dante is often considered the master of contemporary Italian, as well as a forerunner of the Renaissance, which began to flourish in Florence around the same time. The Divine Comedy tells of Dante's journey through Hell (the Inferno), Purgatory, and Paradise, guided by famous poets including Virgil. Dante's epic discusses religion, philosophy, and a wide range of subject matter throughout Dante's travels. Although Dante will always be known for Divine Comedy, he also wrote other works, touching on topics like philosophy in works like Convivio, and religion and power in De Monarchia

Download or read book The Banquet written by Gray Jacobik and published by . This book was released on 2016-03-11 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gray Jacobik's The Banquet is a feast of opposites, a carnival of contraries. The highwire walker who has created such poems is perfectly balanced between heaven and earth. It is rare to encounter truth-saying that is so wholly sensual and philosophical, sexual and intellectual at the same breath-taking moment, so witty but also sober in its assessments, so utterly simple and complex. None have seen, smelled, tasted, heard and touched this world with greater love and accuracy than Gray Jacobik, while at the same time sensing the world of spirit with every ounce of her being. Most importantly, her poems are inherently moral in their visceral refusal to espouse conventional morality, their insistence on raising it to a higher level. You will find yourself singing as you emerge from this carnival of mind and body and spirit

Book excerpt: The Body Banquet unhinges the gates to dreamscapes where obsessions with food, body and place reign in ordered chaos. Carla Jetko uses modern incantations and seductive rhythms to lure us into the lush sanctuaries of her mind. Her intelligent and subtle use of humour, coupled with unusual imagery constantly surprises, in a realm where ordinary events metamorphose into the extraordinary. Like a box of gourmet chocolates, these poems include a rich selection of tastes and adventures that are good enough to tempt skeptics and poetry lovers alike. This book entices, loosens inhibitions, and invites interaction with entities from myth and legend. Dine with Robigus the God of Mildew, experience the bitter rites of gold and chocolate in the Olmec Basin, cruise the aisles of a surreal supermarket, and immerse yourself in toast envy. This, her first full length poetry collection, is a delicious offering where boundaries fade and body becomes banquet, banquet becomes body. "Carla Jetko's mouthwatering poetry is presented with confidence and flair, its courses served in delectable parcels of prose poems with lashings of free verse. Poetry to be enjoyed by the keen epicure and savoured for its sensuous sharpness, imaginative honesty and unnerving directness. It is to be taken seriously. Poetry for poetry foodies." Sally Evans - Editor of Poetry Scotland

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Convivio (The Banquet) is a work written by Dante Alighieri roughly between 1304 and 1307. This unfinished work of Dante consists of four trattati, or "books" a prefatory one, plus three books that each include a canzone (long lyrical poem) and a prose allegorical interpretation or commentary of the poem that goes off in multiple thematic directions. The Convivio is a major stage of development for Dante, very different from the visionary world of the Vita nuova (although like the earlier work it too is a medium for the author's evolving sense of artistic vocation and philosophical-spiritual quest).

Book excerpt: Poetry. If Dionysus and Ariadne lived in Montreal in the late twentieth century, would he serve veal stuffed with apples and pate de fois gras? Coach nubile young singers in a performance of L'Orfeo? Would Ariadne's thread be fashioned into tapestries of furious elegy in the face of environmental catastrophe? Would their marriage survive? Amid a fictional marriage in a state of malaise and a real world on the edge of environmental disaster, Guttman lays open moments of vexation and tenderness, of grief, guilt, betrayal and love. Sounding through these moments are the harpsichord and the loom, drawing Donny and Ari, their sons Stephan and Onno, their corgie and their parrot, into the long weave of myth, art and human history. "Richly detailed, passionate, witty, despairing, and brave, the lyric force of these poems conveys most of all a deep knowledge and love of a complex but recognizable world." Peter Meinke"
