Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Death of Alexander the Great: Newdigate Prize Poem, 1884 There be some themes not ready made to song, Whereon the bard must muse and ponder long, And work with words, and trick the dainty page With all fantastic phrases of the age, To make a poem where was none before And when the words are lost, the thought lives on more. But there are stories in the tale of time Almost too grandly great for paltry rhyme No lyric dream, but drama stem and high Writ with the iron pen of Destiny, Upon whose page God's own handwritings burn, And cry aloud on men to look, and learn. So when our childhood treads the old-world scene 'and plays among the graves of what hath been, Half-careless, by the hand of learning led To search the wreckage of the mighty dead There are some spots where even Childhood's eyes Stand wide and wonder with a big surprise The figures are so large, the hues so bright, They linger long upon the spell-bound sight.

Download or read book Book of Alexander written by Peter Such and published by Aris and Phillips Classical Te. This book was released on 2009 with total page 753 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Libro de Alexandre is an epic poem about the life of Alexander the Great, written by an anonymous Spanish cleric in the thirteenth century. It is the most substantial poem (and almost certainly the first) composed in the learned cuaderna via verse form and provides a unique insight into the intellectual world from which it sprang. The poem conveys the grim message of Alexander's life, the sense of hubris and the horror of his fall from greatness and world domination to the bleak obscurity of the grave. As well as relaying the story of a great ancient figure, the poet also comments on the society and political situation of early thirteenth-century Spain. The combination of eras makes this poem strikingly representative of its time. Peter Such and Richard Rathbone's edition in the Hispanic Classics series illuminates this substantial and important text, with a wide-ranging introduction, Spanish text with facing-page English translation and notes.
Download or read book Power and Possibility written by Elizabeth Alexander and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A volume in the Poets on Poetry series, which collects critical works by contemporary poets, gathering together the articles, interviews, and book reviews by which they have articulated the poetics of a new generation. Elizabeth Alexander is considered one of the country's most gifted contemporary poets, and the publication of her essays in The Black Interior in 2004 established her as an astute critic and cultural commentator as well. Arnold Rampersad has called Alexander "one of the brightest stars in our literary sky . . . a superb, invaluable commentator on the American scene." In this new collection of her essays, reviews, and interviews, Alexander again focuses on African American artistic production, particularly poetry, and the cultural contexts in which it is created and experienced. The book's first section, "Black Arts 101," takes up the poetry of Paul Laurence Dunbar, Sterling Brown, Lucille Clifton, Gwendolyn Brooks, and Rita Dove (among others); artist Romare Bearden; dancer Bill T. Jones; and dramatist August Wilson. A second section, "Black Feminist Thinking," provides engaging meditations ranging from "My Grandmother's Hair" and "A Very Short History of Black Women and Food" to essays on the legacies of Toni Cade, Audre Lorde, and June Jordan. The collection's final section, "Talking," includes interviews, a commencement address---"Black Graduation"---and the essay "Africa and the World." Elizabeth Alexander received a B.A. from Yale University, an M.A. from Boston University, and a Ph.D. in English from the University of Pennsylvania. She has published four books of poems: The Venus Hottentot (1990); Body of Life (1996); Antebellum Dream Book (2001); and, most recently, American Sublime (2005), which was one of three finalists for the Pulitzer Prize. Her play, Diva Studies, was produced at the Yale School of Drama. She is presently Professor of American and African American Studies at Yale University.
