Book Selected Poems of Charles Olson

Download or read book Selected Poems of Charles Olson written by Charles Olson and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-09-01 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I have assumed a great deal in the selection of the poems from such a large and various number, making them a discourse unavoidably my own as well as any Olson himself might have chosen to offer. I had finally no advice but the long held habit of our using one another, during his life, to act as a measure, a bearing, an unabashed response to what either might write or say."—Robert Creeley A seminal figure in post-World War II literature, Charles Olson has helped define the postmodern sensibility. His poetry embraces themes of empowering love, political responsibility, the wisdom of dreams, the intellect as a unit of energy, the restoration of the archaic, and the transformation of consciousness—all carried in a voice both intimate and grand, American and timeless, impassioned and coolly demanding. In this selection of some 70 poems, Robert Creeley has sought to present a personal reading of Charles Olson's decisive and inimitable work—"unequivocal instances of his genius"—over the many years of their friendship.

Book The Journals of Susanna Moodie

Download or read book The Journals of Susanna Moodie written by Margaret Atwood and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Margaret Atwood's The Journals of Susanna Moodie (1970), regarded by many as her most fully realized volume of poetry, is one of the great Canadian and feminist epics. In 1980, Margaret Atwood's longtime friend, the distinguished Canadian artist Charles Pachter, illustrated, designed, and published a handmade boxed portfolio edition of 120 copies of the poem with silkscreen prints, created as an act of homage to the poet. Atwood herself has said of Pachter's work, His is a sophisticated art which draws upon many techniques and evokes many echoes. The poem and the prints inspire one another. This is the first facsimile edition of the original, as well as the first one-volume American edition of the poem, with an introduction by Charles Pachter and a foreword by David Staines.

Book Centennial Rumination on Max Weber s the Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism

Download or read book Centennial Rumination on Max Weber s the Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism written by Isaacs Mark and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 2006-03-13 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1904-1905 Max Weber published the sociological classic "The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism." In this book Weber argues that religion, specifically "ascetic Protestantism" provided the essential social and cultural infrastructure that led to modern capitalism. Weber's suggests that Protestantism has "an affinity for capitalism." Indeed, something within Protestantism-by accident or design-creates the necessary preconditions that lead to the flowering of a just, free, and prosperous society. At the same time, Weber wonders if the economic backwardness of certain societies and regions of the world are somehow related to their religious affiliation. Weber's century old thesis challenges the erroneous core assumptions of many secular humanists, postmoderns, Roman Catholic traditionalists, and Islamists. In view of the threat of the War on Terror, and in the face of the inadequate response of secularist and post-modern intellectuals, it is vital that we understand and appreciate the profound paradigm shift that occurred during the sixteenth and seventeenth century that led to the unfolding of modern capitalism. Despite a plethora of critics Max Weber's one-hundred year old thesis still stands.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Columbian: And Other Poems During these years new scenes and new sights have come up before him - the Centennial of which he has written, and is to be found in this volume has come and passed, western scenes have been traced out, the quadrennial is now upon us, and all together the poet has reason to congratulate himself upon the very many things that have come before him to aid his inspiration. How well he has portrayed these scenes in this little volume is for the reader to say, after having perused these verses, though it may not be amiss in him to say that under all the circumstances combined, he feels confident that no one will condemn or severely criticise these writings if thoroughly read and understood. If, by the perusal of these poems it should bring happiness to the reader and thereby help make the pathway of life more pleasant, the author will be more than repaid.
