Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems, Vol. 2: To Which Are Added Critiques on Metaphysical Subjects IN introducing this volume to the notice of the public, I beg leave to express the grateful sense I feel of the kind generous support which I have received from all my friends, - some of them of forty years' standing, - not only in this my native Island, but throughout Great Britain; and I cherish the h0pe, that these effusions of my humble muse may prove not unworthy of their indulgent patronage.

Download or read book Subject Matter written by Baron Wormser and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each poem in Baron Wormser's sixth collection, Subject Matter, is fourteen lines. In the tradition of works such as Robert Lowell's Notebook, Wormser uses this form to concisely pursue a wide range of topics. The sixty-one poems range in tone from fierce to wry, from tender to brisk, from quizzical to evocative, just as the topics range from tattoos to Buddhism, from truck driving to Israel, from global warming to orgasms. What all the poems share is a willingness to pursue uneasy truths, a willingness to encounter how deeply the public realm touches the private realm. Book jacket.

This book was released on 2016-08-25 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,3, University of Duisburg-Essen (Department of Anglophone Studies), course: A Survey of British Literature, language: English, abstract: As the title of this paper suggests this paper claims that Donne's metaphysical love poetry takes a unique position in Renaissance literature. Hence this paper aims at revealing and highlighting main themes and characteristics of Donne's love poetry. However, the focus will be on Donne's metaphysical love poetry. That is why the paper will start with defining what metaphysical poetry is and what its key features are. These preliminaries will be followed by the main analysis. In order to prove the main thesis of the unique position of Donne's love poetry the erotic and highly metaphysical poem 'The Flea' is chosen to be examined as a representative example. But at first I will have a closer look at the poem in terms of content, language and style. Afterwards the paper will close with a concluding comparison of the characteristics of Donne's metaphysical love poetry (found in 'The Flea') to popular Elizabethan poetry.
Download or read book The Crescent Moon Book of Metaphysical Poetry written by Charlotte Greene and published by . This book was released on 2016-03-21 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE CRESCENT MOON BOOK OF METAPHYSICAL POETRY Edited and introduced by Charlotte Greene. With a new picture gallery, and additional poems for this edition. All of the major and many of the minor Metaphysical poets are featured in this anthology, including: John Donne, Lady Mary Wroth, Robert Herrick, George Herbert, Sir William Davenant, the Countess of Sidney Godolphin, Richard Crashaw, John Cleveland, Abraham Cowley, Richard Lovelace, Andrew Marvell, Henry Vaughan, and Thomas Stanley. The Metaphysical poetic style is witty, learned, subjective, sensual, intellectual, reflective, philosophical, baroque, intense, and sometimes ecstatic. Metaphysical poetry was passion and emotion modified by intellect/ ('passionate ratiocination' Herbert Grierson called it), while T.S. Eliot described John Donne's poetry as experience modified by (his) sensibility. Helen Gardener said that Metaphysical verse was 'an expanded epigram', and Margaret Willy called it 'feeling thought'. Metaphysical poetry used satire and irony, as well as the new science (biology, mathematics, cosmology and microcosmic emphasis). It is a poetry concerned with living for the present, with philosophical and religious subjects - with, in short, the soul. It is a dramatic poetry, essentially lyrical, often rough at the edges, with a love of individualized verse forms and writing poems as long as needed to be. After the adherence to traditional stanzas of Elizabethan poetry (the sonnet being the most obvious type), the Metaphysical poets employed a wide variety of forms and metrical patterns. Thomas Traherne for example, wrote in a new verse form each time he composed a poem. Poets such as Vaughan, Traherne and Marvell give the impression of writing until they've finished what they wanted to say. Their poetic forms were open - a short line here, an extended stanza there, as the subject required. Metaphysical poetry was partly 'Classical', partly 'Christian' and partly 'religious'; it was partly humanist, partly Cavalier and partly Elizabethan. John Donne, for example, was just as much Elizabethan, post-Petrarchan, Renaissance and 'Classical' as 'Metaphysical'. Some critics separate the Metaphysical poets' love poems from their religious ones. The distinction may be useful, but it is not how poets write. The boundaries between profane/ sacred, love/ religion, secular/ divine is not that clearly marked by the poets themselves. The 'religious' poems of the Metaphysical poets are often their most erotic. They write of God, the beloved, and their relationship to him, in erotic terms. In poems such as 'The World', for example, Henry Vaughan narrates the old notion of the soul mystically married to the Bridegroom (God). With an introduction and bibliography. The text has been revised for this edition, with new poems added. Includes a new picture gallery. Also available in an E-book edition. www.crmoon.com. "

Download or read book She is a Rare Experience written by Hemy New School Poet and published by . This book was released on 2021-06-06 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'she is a rare experience' is volume 1 of a series of works that explores one man's poetic deep dive into the spiritual, metaphysical and earthly dimensions of the female psyche, form and soul. These words flow from the author's perceived inner truths disseminated from his attempt to discover the essential essence of a woman; expressed in layers of emotion, attraction, fascination and sublimation of his 'other'. Within these poems lies his intent to capture and express a more modern ideal of the relationship between the artist and his muse. The work may be described as a somewhat indulgent accumulation of his reverence and adulation of the female exploding across the pages; an exploration of intimacy painted in words that have been individually and instinctively formatted and sculpted. The author seeks to capture the energy and imagination of his subjects and aims to replicate that experience for his readers. The poet's words delve into surreal, romantic, obsessional, conventional and mythic themes both figuratively and metaphorically. Whilst there is a subtle sensuality imbued and woven into this body of work, it is reflective and delicate in nature and steers away from explicit meaning. This is the first of a series of volumes of work, which will follow.
Download or read book The Use of Animals in Marianne Moore s Poetry written by Jana Brueske and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2012-11-21 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2008 in the subject Didactics for the subject English - Literature, Works, grade: 2,0, RWTH Aachen University, language: English, abstract: “Poetry has “a place for the genuine,” and Moore’s favoring of animals as poetic subjects is a tribute to their genuineness.” (Allen 1939, 112) In my term paper I want to deal with her special interest in animals. I want to find out why she uses animals in her poems and what function they fulfil. In order to do so, I will first have a look at her poems in general to discover what kind of animals she uses and with which frequency. I will also look at her life outside of the poet’s world in order to understand where her influences came from. I will then pick out two of her animal poems to make a more specific analysis on them in order to see what the different functions of animals are and how they are presented. The first example will be Marianne Moore’s poem To a giraffe which will then be compared to a second poem The arctic ox (or goat). In a next step I want to give an overview over the other functions of animals used in Marianne Moore’s poetry. To understand the quantity and frequency of animal use in her works I will consider another by Marianne Moore which is called The Jerboa. Because of its length I will not analyze this poem in detail, but I will present the most important aspects in regard to the functions of animals given in this frequently cited and interpreted poem.
Download or read book Inspirational Meditation written by Richard Sherrer and published by . This book was released on 2007-06 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does a loving and caring mother cope when her child develops a life-threatening illness? In an honest but gut-wrenching way Shawn Williams takes the reader through just such an ordeal from the fateful day when the doctor first mentioned the dreaded words "Aplastic Anemia" until a year later when the story reaches its climax. This account transports one directly to Danielle's hospital room, to the Intensive Care Units and to the Operating Rooms where the various events unfolded. The reader shares the pain which both Danielle and her distraught mother endured, the false hopes of different treatment attempts, the minor triumphs along the way, the "small blessings" that cheered them at times and the despair when, in the final analysis, all of the treatments had the same result. Through the sadness of Danielle's Story shines a message of real hope and confidence for the future. It is an overwhelmingly touching and moving narrative. Reading certain passages will make you cry, others will make you laugh, but all of them will re-affirm your own faith in the Almighty and in the value of prayer for one's own internal well being.
