Download or read book The Remembered Dead written by Sally Minogue and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-05-31 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Remembered Dead explores the ways poets of the First World War - and later poets writing in the memory of that war - address the difficult question of how to remember, and commemorate, those killed in conflict. It looks closely at the way poets struggled to meaningfully represent dying, death, and the trauma of witness, while responding to the pressing need for commemoration. The authors pay close attention to specific poems while maintaining a strong awareness of literary and philosophical contexts. The poems are discussed in relation to modernism and myth, other forms of commemoration (photographs, memorials), and theories of cultural memory. There is fresh analysis of canonical poets which, at the same time, challenges the confines of the canon by integrating discussion of lesser-known figures, including non-combatants and poets of later decades. The final chapter reaches beyond the war's centenary in a discussion of one remarkable commemoration of Wilfred Owen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Margaret Hitchcock, like all good poets, asks you questions you didnt know you wanted to ask: Can flour, or flowers, be a life raft? What does a house cleaner do when she finds love left lying in the house she is working in? Is anything better than butter? What kind of cage do words make? Was Cinderella really happy ever after? What comes first in the morning, the challenge of beauty or something else? Should the Princes of Poppycock be addressed as Her Peachiness? The reader will find intriguing questions and surprising answers in these collected poems, a feast to be savored slowly, flavored with wit and unassuming wisdom and always with grace and humor. A woman of many talents, Margaret Hitchcock Young created and ran a health food store on Nantucket Island, a place she made her home and springboard to the world. In her life (1931-2009) she was a mother, a baker, an actor, a traveler, and a food writer. She was also an avid Scrabble player and crossword solver, loved language and the beauty of words. When her worldly work was done, she devoted herself to the call of the poetry she had felt all her life. This book contains all the poems she left.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As we approach the centenary of the outbreak of the First World War, this timely reissue, first published in 1991, evaluates the function of poetry in wartime Europe, arguing that war poetry must be understood as a social as well as a literary phenomenon. As well as locating the work of well-known French, English and German war poets in a European context, Elizabeth Marsland discusses lesser-known poetry of the war years, including poems by women and the neglected tradition of civilian protest through poetry. Identifying shared characteristics as well as the unique features of each nation’s poetry, The Nation’s Cause affords new insight into the relationship between nationalism and the social attitudes that determined the conduct of war.

Book excerpt: "Whether it's lullabying a grandchild, catching the brogue of an Irish biddy, or creating a climatic scene on the eve of a historic battle, Margaret Doyle's poetry is always a delight. Rhyme or free, formal or loose, she is always a mistress of the poetry to which she is devoted."-Isaac Rehert, newspaper columnist, teacher, author of "Rock Run Hollow""Margaret Doyle was my poetry teacher and helped me fulfill a late in life desire. I learned to hear more of the music in words and to explore the deeper meaning of life. I've used her teachings in my latest book."-Jim Holechek, public relations consultant, author of "Henry Perky: The Shredded Wheat King""One of my favorite poems in Margaret Doyle's collection is 'Amorum Emblemata', which deals with the short lived liaison of Venus and Mars. When a poem can be that moving to inspire me whose whole life has been painting, it has to be powerful writing. You will find others which will mean as much to you."-Frank Redelius, painter, author of "The Master Keys""People who say they do not like poetry should read Margaret Doyle-they will never say that again! Every line challenges and engages! Every word dances, and dazzles! This is a book to keep around, to savor, poem by poem!"-Gilbert Sandler, author, historian and radio personality
Download or read book Margaret Dusty written by Alice Notley and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. "Notley is the foremost practitioner of the New York School of poetry. Heir to the likes of Frank O'Hara and widow of the larger-than-life Ted Berrigan, Notley has over the course of her last few books finally hit her stride.... Notley writes from an accumulation of meaning. Similar to the techniques of the abstract expressionists, it is in that heavily built-up surface that we find the depth of meaning.... Some poems are so right, so perfectly conceived, it's a wonder that anyone would write in any other way"--John Stickney, The Columbus Dispatch. "These poems, for the most part imaginary conversations with herself, are energetic, good clean fun. They also contain some serious under currents. At their best, they tease readers into a new way of viewing their surroundings"--Library Journal.
