Download or read book The Poetry of Yehuda Amichai written by Yehuda Amichai and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2015-11-03 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The largest English-language collection to date from Israel’s finest poet Few poets have demonstrated as persuasively as Yehuda Amichai why poetry matters. One of the major poets of the twentieth century, Amichai created remarkably accessible poems, vivid in their evocation of the Israeli landscape and historical predicament, yet universally resonant. His are some of the most moving love poems written in any language in the past two generations—some exuberant, some powerfully erotic, many suffused with sadness over separation that casts its shadow on love. In a country torn by armed conflict, these poems poignantly assert the preciousness of private experience, cherished under the repeated threats of violence and death. Amichai’s poetry has attracted a variety of gifted English translators on both sides of the Atlantic from the 1960s to the present. Assembled by the award-winning Hebrew scholar and translator Robert Alter, The Poetry of Yehuda Amichai is by far the largest selection of the master poet’s work to appear in English, gathering the best of the existing translations as well as offering English versions of many previously untranslated poems. With this collection, Amichai’s vital poetic voice is now available to English readers as it never has been before.
Download or read book Transcendental Studies written by Keith Waldrop and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2009-03-02 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This compelling selection of recent work by internationally celebrated poet Keith Waldrop presents three related poem sequences—"Shipwreck in Haven," "Falling in Love through a Description," and "The Plummet of Vitruvius"—in a virtuosic poetic triptych. In these quasi-abstract, experimental lines, collaged words torn from their contexts take on new meanings. Waldrop, a longtime admirer of such artists as the French poet Raymond Queneau and the American painter Robert Motherwell, imposes a tonal override on purloined materials, yet the originals continue to show through. These powerful poems, at once metaphysical and personal, reconcile Waldrop's romantic tendencies with formal experimentation, uniting poetry and philosophy and revealing him as a transcendentalist for the new millennium.
Download or read book Trilogy written by Hilda Doolittle and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 1998-09-17 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classic Trilogy by H.D. (Hilda Doolittle, 1886-1961), including a large section of referential notes for readers and students, compiled by Professor Aliki Barnstone. As civilian war poetry (written under the shattering impact of World War II). Trilogy's three long poems rank with T.S. Eliot's "Four Quartets" and Ezra Pound's "Pisan Cantos." The first book of the Trilogy, "The Walls Do Not Fall," published in the midst of the "fifty thousand incidents" of the London blitz, maintains the hope that though "we have no map; / possibly we will reach haven,/ heaven." "Tribute to Angels" describes new life springing from the ruins, and finally, in "The Flowering of the Rod"—with its epigram "...pause to give/ thanks that we rise again from death and live."—faith in love and resurrection is realized in lyric and strongly Biblical imagery.

Download or read book The Poetry Trilogy written by Aaron Lux and published by Omniopes. This book was released on 2014-10-10 with total page 780 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Poetry Trilogy is The Greatest Single Collection of Poetry Ever Self Published: 1 - Trilogy 3 - Volumes 6 - Continents 7 - Pillars 50 - Countries 700 - Poems 2400 - Pages 300,000 - Words You are now looking at Volume ONE of The Poetry Trilogy. The Poetry Trilogy is a monumental Masterpiece. The combined works of The Trilogy is larger in volume than both the New and Old Testaments combined. There is a massive amount of information within these pages, and I ask that you PLEASE only read a few poems a day so that your subconscious Self can absorb all of the information I have written fully. I believe that The Poetry Trilogy is, "The Greatest Collection of Poetry" ever published. Not just because of the magnitude of this work, but because of the diversity found within the pages. It's a compilation compiled from, dozens of countries with emotions, from thousands of people from all over the world. From the deserts of Africa, to the jungles of South America, from the greatest cities in the World, to the highest mountains and deep oceans, this is the collective pulse, of our planet, and our people. A Living Testimony of the current state of our Humanity. Each Volume, of The Poetry Trilogy, is divided into 7 sections, each section being a Pillar. The Seven Pillars, of The Poetry Trilogy are in a major sense, the story of every persons journey here on Earth, both internally and external, as well as being a reflection, of the collective Life of the Creation of Humanity. Pillar 1 is God, because I believe God is where we all come from, it is the Beginning, and in The Beginning there was only God. Pillar 2 is Life, because Life is where our journey, here on Earth begins. Pillar 3 is Love, Love is the ascension, to higher emotional vibrations, is the strongest of all emotions, and plays a central part in our existence, both independently as collectively. Pillar 4, Hate, Hate is the descent, into the deepest darkest depths of the Human mind, and of Humanity as well. Almost as equally strong as Love, Hate is Love's polar opposite, and is equally essential to existence. This is an example of the Law of Dualities, as mentioned by HERMES and other prophets. After Pillar 4, we escape the Hate through our adventures in Pillar 5, Travels. Pillar 5, Travels, Travels takes us on a journey around the world, and through exploring and discovering the World, we explore and discover our Self, discovery of the Self leads us to Pillar 6, Illuminations. Pillar 6, Illuminations, with Illuminations, all of the Darkness is illuminated. Light will always be stronger than The Darkness. If ever in doubt remember, a single candle can light up an entire room. The Darkness can not be wherever The Light is. When the Darkness is illuminated by The Light, all the veils are lifted, and we see, God without the illusions of Religion, we see, Life without the illusions of The Ego, we see, Love without the illusions of Lust, we see, Hate without the illusions of Anger, we see, Travels without the illusions of Physical Matter, we see, Illuminations without the illusions of Thought, and we see, Death, without the illusions of Fear. This naturally brings us to The Final Pillar. Pillar 7, Death. Death, is Death of Ego, Death of Body, Death of all that we thought was true, undeniably discovered, through Death of the Physical Body or Self. Death is to Life, what Hate is to Love, the necessary counterbalance of Duality. For indeed the only guarantee in the Life experience, is that we will all have the Death experience as well. Pillar 7 completes the cycle, of our non-existential existence in Earth. And with the completion of the Pillars, you will have the completion of The Poetry Trilogy.

Download or read book The Poetry Trilogy written by Aaron L. A. Lux and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-02-02 with total page 828 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Poetry Trilogy is the greatest poetic work of The 21st. century. It's 700 chapters, 2400 pages, and over 400,000 words... EVERYTHING is written within these pages, and is divided up into The 7 Pillars of Creation, which are GOD, LIFE, LOVE, HATE, TRAVELS, ILLUMINATIONS, & DEATH... There are romantic poems about beauty, freedom, and love, and horrifying poems about murder, torture and rape. There are poems about Jesus, and poems about Satan. With that being said, please remember this; WARNING: GRAPHIC CONTENT, NOT FOR CHILDREN, THOSE THAT ARE FEEBLE MINDED, FAINT HEARTED, OR OTHERWISE WEAK WILLED, seriously! Also note that this book is a translation of how I view the world, unfiltered and uncensored, it is as grimy and dirty and horrible and amazing and magnificent and magical as the world itself. Also, it is a Poetry book, not an Autobiography, I have never tortured, raped, or killed anyone, I have to say this because people read my work and find it so believable that they think I actually did some of the atrocious acts I talk about. I have negative poems AND positive poems, it's the balance of extremities, Light and Dark, Love and Hate, Life and Death... I did not want to comprmise my artistic integrity be only writing "nice" poems. It's an amazingly crazy and wild world out there, we live in very interesting times, and this is my humble attempt at documenting it all from the eyes of the greatest poet of the 21st. century... In other words, The Poetry Trilogy is... Everything that exist in our creation, just in written form. I believe that this body of work will be one of the defining literary creations of our generation. If you read Volume 1, and/or 2, and/or 3, and find that I've missed something, please, let me know, and I will make a point of writing a poem about the specific poem you request... Thank You, and, God Bless. Peace & Love, Strength & Guidance, ONE

Download or read book Pacific Walkers written by Nance Van Winckel and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2015-01-01 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nance Van Winckel's wry, provocative slant on the world and her command of images and ideas enliven these stunning poems. Presented in two parts, Pacific Walkers first gives imagined voice to anonymous dead individuals, entries in the John Doe network of the Spokane County Medical Examiner's Records. The focus then shifts to named but now-forgotten individuals in a discarded early-1900s photo album purchased in a secondhand store. We encounter figures devoid of history but enduring among us as lockered remains, and figures who come with histories--first names and dates, and faces preserved in photographs--but who no longer belong to anyone.
