Book excerpt: "Reflecting ten years of work, Blue Electric Dusk is an eclectic collection of rhyme and rhythm. James W.F. Roberts, a self-described poetry addict, delivers his voice in shouts and whispers with the use of language allowing the reader to move beyond the written word into the visual landscape and to journey inside the reflection of a writer's thought and view of contemporary society. In these pages, Roberts shares the passion and eroticism of relationships, the pain of death, and the transformative power of love. He is ever patient in his observations and open to the teachings contained in the smallest moments." - Catherine Zickgraf, Catherine the Great, Performance Poet. Augustus, Georgia. "'Blue Electric Dusk' is a collection electric with questions in an ever-indifferent world. From echoes of lost love to incisive social observation, the words spin across the page in images equally dark as they are richly colourful." - Amanda Anastasi.Twice winner and 2013 judge of the Williamstown Literary Festival's Ada Cambridge Poetry Prize. Her collection, 2012 and Other Poems, was named in Ali Alizadeh's 'Best Poetic Works of 2012' in Overland. Blue Electric Dusk, 81 poems and ten years in the making. Poems about love, loss, sex, desire, desperation, addiction, abuse, murder, spiritual decay, prophetic visions of the end of days, discovering your sexual identity, facing up to the zombie cultural zeitgeist of the new millennium and so much more. This is not poetry for the faint of heart. This is poetry that grabs you by the throat and takes you on a ride beyond the mundane and corporeal and leaves you somewhere between a nightmare world, the squalor of an opium den in the inner city and the profound. James WF Roberts only started writing ten years ago and already he has come a long way with several international publications under his belt, good reputation developing on the poetry stages of Melbourne and regional Victoria and good showings in several major competitions over the last few years, Runner-up Page Seventeen 2012 Poetry Prize, Short-listed for the Fermoy International Poetry Festival 2012 and Highly Commended for the John Shaw Nielson Prize, Fellowship of Australian writers, 2009/10. Other publications of note included: Melpomene, Numen Books, 2012, Spirit of Poe Anthology (USA), Verandah twenty-six (Deakin Uni) Song of Sahel (multimedia Kindle African Drought relief.

Download or read book Staging Revolution written by Xing Fan and published by Hong Kong University Press. This book was released on 2018-01-11 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Staging Revolution refutes the deep-rooted notion that art overtly in the service of politics is by definition devoid of artistic merits. As a prominent component shaping the culture of the Cultural Revolution, model Beijing Opera (jingju) is the epitome of art used for political ends. Arguing against commonly accepted interpretations, Xing Fan demonstrates that in a performance of model jingju, political messages could only be realized through the most rigorously formulated artistic choices and conveyed by performers possessing exceptional techniques. Fan contextualizes model jingju at the intersection of history, artistry, and aesthetics. Integral to jingju’s interactions with politics are the practitioners’ constant artistic experimentations to accommodate the modern stories and characters within the jingju framework and the eventual formation of a new sense of beauty. Therefore, a thorough understanding of model jingju demands close attention to how the artists resolved actual production problems, which is a critical perspective missing in earlier studies. This book provides exactly this much-needed dimension of analysis by scrutinizing the decisions made in the real, practical context of bringing dramatic characters to life on stage, and by examining how major artistic elements interacted with each other, sometimes harmoniously, sometimes antagonistically. Such an approach necessarily places jingju artists center stage. Making use of first person accounts of the creative process, including numerous interviews conducted by the author, Fan presents a new appreciation of a lived experience that, on a harrowing journey of coping with political interference, was also filled with inspiration and excitement. “This fascinating study is ground-breaking and timely. Xing Fan masterfully demonstrates how the creative choices made by playwrights, directors, musicians, actors, and designers intersected with one another in creating an aesthetics of the model theater during the Cultural Revolution. A must-read for anyone interested in Chinese literature and drama, theater studies, and comparative literature.” —Xiaomei Chen, University of California, Davis “Though no longer in fashion, the model revolutionary operas of the Cultural Revolution are still occasionally performed. Xing Fan has done us a great service by analyzing them in detail and reminding us of their merits. I thoroughly enjoyed this engaging book and learned a lot from it. I recommend it strongly.” —Colin Mackerras, Griffith University

Download or read book How to Survive Death and Other Inconveniences written by Sue William Silverman and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2020-03-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many are haunted and obsessed by their own eventual deaths, but perhaps no one as much as Sue William Silverman. This thematically linked collection of essays charts Silverman’s attempt to confront her fears of that ultimate unknown. Her dread was fomented in part by a sexual assault, hidden for years, that led to an awareness that death and sex are in some ways inextricable, an everyday reality many women know too well. Through gallows humor, vivid realism, and fantastical speculation, How to Survive Death and Other Inconveniences explores this fear of death and the author’s desire to survive it. From cruising New Jersey’s industry-blighted landscape in a gold Plymouth to visiting the emergency room for maladies both real and imagined to suffering the stifling strictness of an intractable piano teacher, Silverman guards her memories for the same reason she resurrects archaic words—to use as talismans to ward off the inevitable. Ultimately, Silverman knows there is no way to survive death physically. Still, through language, commemoration, and metaphor, she searches for a sliver of transcendent immortality.

Download or read book Sunset Cluster written by H. Roger Grant and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2023-07-04 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover the Sunset Cluster--railroads that were doomed to fail? The first two decades of the 20th century were the twilight of the Railroad Age. Major routes had long been established, and local service became the focus of new construction. Beginning in 1907, a cluster of five shortline railroads were established in otherwise unconnected parts of Iowa. They, however, would short lived. The five Iowa 'sunset cluster' railroads might appear to deserve eternal obscurity, being at best minor footnotes to American railroad history. After all, their total mileage barely exceeded 100 miles. Their average life span, moreover, covered about five years, and the Des Moines & Red Oak Railway (DM&RO) never turned a wheel. Yet, these Iowa shortlines had an immediate positive impact to their service area, but disappointingly they became victims of modal competition and the Good Roads Movement. Using contemporary newspapers, government reports, and other little-known sources, renowned railway historian H. Roger Grant offers a fascinating look at these shortline railroads. Sunset Cluster explores the almost desperate desire by communities to benefit from steel rails before the regional railroad map finally imploded and the challenges faced by latter-day shortline builders.
