Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hellenistic Poetry has enjoyed a notable re-appreciation in recent years and received ample scholarly discussion, especially focusing on its reception and innovation of Greek poetic tradition. This book wishes to add to our picture of how Hellenistic poetry works by looking at it from a slightly different angle. Concentrating on the interaction between contemporary poets, it attempts to view the dynamics of imitation and reception in the light of poetical self-positioning. In the courtly Alexandrian surroundings, choosing a poetic model and affiliation determines one's position in the cultural field. This book sets out to chart, not only the well-known complexities of handling the poetic past, but especially their relation to the poetic interaction of the Hellenistic, in particular Alexandrian poets.

Download or read book Art Is a Window Art Is a Mirror written by Louis R. Velasquez and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-02-01 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our lives are made of the past, the present and the future. The poems are a mirror of the author's world today and a window into his past. Everyone's past is filled with memories of persons, places and things. The future is made of our dreams and hopes. Louis is and has been a Fine Art painter for over 65 years of his 72 years. Only in 2013 did he begin to express his memories in poems. This book is his 7th poetry book and Louis says it will be his last. The reason is that he must return to his paintings. Louis is the creator of ' Calcite Sun Oil' a revolutionary oil painting medium that eliminates all hazardous materials from Fine Art painting. His books and DVD's on painting materials and techniques have been read and studied across the globe. The images in paintings have been called poetic and poems tell stories with words. The poems are not of one theme nor subject. The reader will find the variety of topics and subjects of interest, as they cover life, death, hope, love and hate.
Download or read book Come the Slumberless To the Land of Nod written by Traci Brimhall and published by Copper Canyon Press. This book was released on 2020-03-31 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written during the trial for a close friend’s murder, Come the Slumberless to the Land of Nod exposes that the whimsical, horrible, and absurd all sit together. In this ambitious fourth collection, Traci Brimhall corresponds with the urges of life and death within herself as she lives through a series of impossibilities: the sentencing of her friend’s murderers, the birth of her child, the death of her mother, divorce, a trip sailing through the Arctic. In lullaby, lyric essay, and always with brutal sincerity, Brimhall examines how beauty and terror live right alongside each other––much like how Nod is both a fictional dreamscape and the place where Cain is exiled for murdering Abel. By plucking at the tensions between life and death, love and hate, truth and obscurity, Brimhall finds what it is that ties opposing themes together; how love and loss are married in grief. Like Eve thrust from Eden, Brimhall is tasked with finding meaning in a world defined by its cruelty. Unrelenting, incisive, and tender, these poems expose beauty in the grotesque and argue that the effort to be good always outweighs the desire to succumb to what is easy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Romantic, whimsical, loving, and sometimes heartbreaking, Mirrors and Windows reveals the author's reflections and insights into his world.

The fables surely grew from a desire to teach his children how to better understand and succeed in the world. About Michael R. Corman Michael Corman grew up in Detroit and Oak Park, Michigan. He went from being a "four-point student" to an Administrative Law Judge and has always fancied himself a poet and arbiter of words.

Book excerpt: This harrowing yet hopeful novel shares “an authentic and compassionate look at the ups and downs of teenage life and living with Tourette syndrome” (Kirkus). For most people, the number ten is just another number. But for sixteen-year-old Troy Hayes, who suffers from Tourette Syndrome and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, it dictates his entire life. He must do everything by its exacting rhythm—even in the face of ridicule and bullying. Finally fed up with the humiliation, loneliness, and pain he endures, Troy writes a list of ten things to do by the tenth anniversary of his diagnosis—culminating in suicide on the actual day. But the process of working his way through the list changes Troy’s life: he becomes friends with Khory, a smart, beautiful classmate who has her own troubled history. Khory unwittingly helps Troy cross off items on his list, moving him ever closer to his grand finale, even as she shows him that life may have more possibilities than he imagined.

Download or read book Heart Like a Window Mouth Like a Cliff written by Sara Borjas and published by Noemi Press. This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. California Interest. Latinx Studies. HEART LIKE A WINDOW, MOUTH LIKE A CLIFF is a transgressive, yet surprisingly tender confrontation of what it means to want to flee the thing you need most. The speaker struggles through cultural assimilation and the pressure to "act" Mexican while dreaming of the privileges of whiteness. Borjas holds cultural traditions accountable for the gendered denial of Chicanas to individuate and love deeply without allowing one's love to consume the self. This is nothing new. This is colonization working through relationships within Chicanx families--how we learn love and perform it, how we filter it though alcohol abuse--how ultimately, we oppress the people we love most. This collection simultaneously reveres and destroys nostalgia, slips out of the story after a party where the reader can find God "drunk and dreaming." Think golden oldiez meets the punk attitude of No Doubt. Think pochas sipping gin martinis in lowriders cruising down Who Gives a Fuck Boulevard.
