Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems From the Greek Mythology: And Miscellaneous Poems From elm to elm, hanging in middle air Their amethystine fruitage - clustering globes Andavhen the day was done, I sang blithe hymns, Crowning myself a victor o'er his toils With roses crimson-soul'd and ivy dark And I was happy. But at length a change Crept over me. The joys that once had been Ample and deep, seem'd tame and in their place Grew up a mighty vagueness, which, like shade From passing clouds o'er sunlit lands, made blank Field after field of brilliance. Sadness fell Upon my soul, and it was desolate, - dark And rising sense of power, that might have stood On Jove's cerulean battlements alone.

Download or read book The Poems of Hesiod written by Hesiod and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 1983 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hesiod is the first Greek and, therefore, the first European we can know as a real person, for, unlike Homer, he tells us about himself in his poems. Hesiod seems to have been a successful farmer and a rather gloomy though not humorless man. One suspects from his concern for the bachelor's lot and some rather unflattering remarks about women that he was never married. A close study of both poems reveals the same personality -that of a deeply religious man concerned with the problems of justice and fate.

Download or read book Gods and Mortals written by Nina Kossman and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2001-03-22 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries, poets have looked into the mirror of classical myth to show us the many ways our emotional lives are still reflected in the ancient stories of heroism, hubris, transformation, and loss that myths so eloquently tell. Now, in Gods and Mortals: Modern Poems on Classical Myths, we have the first anthology to gather the great 20th century myth-inspired poems from around the world. "Perhaps it is because the myths echo the structure of our unconscious that every new generation of poets finds them a source of inspiration and self-recognition," says Nina Kossman in her introduction to this marvelous collection. Indeed, from Valery, Yeats, Lawrence, Rilke, Akhmatova, and Auden writing in the first half of the century to such contemporary poets as Lucille Clifton, Derek Walcott, Rita Dove, Wislawa Szymborska, and Mark Strand, the material of Greek myth has elicited a poetry of remarkably high achievement. And by organizing the poems first into broad categories such as "Heroes," "Lovers," "Trespassers," and secondly around particular mythological figures such as Persephone, Orpheus, or Narcissus, readers are treated to a fascinating spectrum of poems on the same subject. For example, the section on Odysseus includes poems by Cavafy, W. S. Merwin, Gregory Corso, Gabriel Zaid, Louise Gluck, Wallace Stevens, and many others. Thus we are allowed to see the familiar Greek hero refracted through the eyes, and sharply varying stylistic approaches, of a wide range of poets from around the world. Here, then, is a collection of extraordinary poems that testifies to--and amply rewards--our ongoing fascination with classical myth.
