Download or read book The Monday Rhetoric of the Love Club and Other Parables written by Marvin Cohen and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 1973 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Marvin Cohen's wacky humor," the late Thomas Merton once said, "has something of 'Thurber, something of Steinberg, Buster Keaton, the surrealists, the French pataphysicians." And this in itself is a fair enough assessment, to say the very least, of The Monday Rhetoric of the Love Club, a collection of twenty-one of the prolific Cohen's parables, prose poems, fables, and dialogues. Two of the pieces, including the title story, originally appeared in the New Directions in Prose and Poetry series; most of the others were selected from the many other magazines and anthologies in England and the United States in which Cohen's shorter works have been published.

Download or read book ParoxISMS written by Edwin Brock and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 1974 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cynics, says our author, "write books / by Edwin Brock / illustrated by / his wife." Readers already familiar with the wry, sometimes dour work of the British poet Edwin Brock will recall that his wife, Elizabeth, contributed the jacket illustrations to his two previous collections published here (Invisibility Is the Art of Survival and The Portraits The Poses). Now they have combined their talents and complementary satiric visions to produce "A Guide to the Isms." With the biting verse of the one, and the charming, mischievous sketches of the other, Paroxisms prods some of our most cherished sets of ideas. Catholicism, Freudianism, Patriotism, Communism, Capitalism, Surrealism, Eroticism, even the poet's own Cynicism--all are at the receiving end of the Brocks' combined sting.

Download or read book Postmodern Vernaculars written by Elisabeth Mermann-Jozwiak and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2005 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Postmodern Vernaculars examines the work of Chicana authors such as Gaspar de Alba, Anzaldúa, Cantú, Castillo, Cisneros, Mora, Pérez, and Viramontes in relation to theories of postmodernism. Working with a fluid concept of postmodernism, one that traces the term's evolution from the 1960s to the present, this book argues that Chicana literature is one vernacular, a regional variation of postmodernism. Drawing on the interdisciplinary scholarship that postmodernism itself has enabled - specifically recent developments in the fields of geography, ethnography, photography, history, and linguistics - Postmodern Vernaculars shows that Chicana literature participates in the ongoing reconstruction of postmodernism.
