Download or read book The Collected Critical Prose and Letters written by Osip Mandelʹshtam and published by Harvill Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 746 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Osip Mandelstam was one of the major Russian poets of the twentieth century. His first works were published before the October Revolution and, after the Bolsheviks came to power, although his reputation was high, he was never fully in accord with the new literary establishment. He was arrested in 1934 after reciting a poem denouncing Stalin and began the harrowing journey to his death, recorded so movingly in his widow's memoirs Hope Against Hope and Hope Abandoned. Mandelstam, as well as being a poet, was a brilliant critic and prose-writer and this collection of autobiographical essays, reviews and personal reflections embodies many of the same themes as his poetry the nature of history, the continuity and yet fragility of cultural traditions, and the value of poetry itself. It is an essential volume for all admirers of Russian literature in general and the poetry of Mandelstam in particular.

Download or read book Blooming Spaces written by Anastasiya Lyubas and published by Academic Studies PRess. This book was released on 2020-11-03 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Debora Vogel (1900-1942) wrote in Yiddish unlike anyone else. Yiddish, her fourth language after Polish, Hebrew, and German, became the central vehicle for her modernist experiments in poetry and prose. This ground-breaking collection presents the work of a strikingly original yet overlooked author, art critic, and intellectual, and resituates Vogel as an important figure in the constellation of European modernity. Vogel’s astute observations on art, literature, and psychology in her essays, her bold prose experiments inspired by photography and film, and Cubist poetry that both challenges and captivates invite the reader on a journey of discovery—into the microcosm of the talented thinker marked by tragic fate and the macrocosm of Jewish history and Poland’s turbulent twentieth century.
Download or read book Collected Prose written by Charles Olson and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1997-12-19 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The prose writings of Charles Olson (1910–1970) have had a far-reaching and continuing impact on post-World War II American poetics. Olson's theories, which made explicit the principles of his own poetics and those of the Black Mountain poets, were instrumental in defining the sense of the postmodern in poetry and form the basis of most postwar free verse. The Collected Prose brings together in one volume the works published for the most part between 1946 and 1969, many of which are now out of print. A valuable companion to editions of Olson's poetry, the book backgrounds the poetics, preoccupations, and fascinations that underpin his great poems. Included are Call Me Ishmael, a classic of American literary criticism; the influential essays "Projective Verse" and "Human Universe"; and essays, book reviews, and Olson's notes on his studies. In these pieces one can trace the development of his new science of man, called "muthologos," a radical mix of myth and phenomenology that Olson offered in opposition to the mechanistic discourse and rationalizing policy he associated with America's recent wars in Europe and Asia. Editors Donald Allen and Benjamin Friedlander offer helpful annotations throughout, and poet Robert Creeley, who enjoyed a long and mutually influential relationship with Olson, provides the book's introduction.
