Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pursuit of Myth in the Poetry of Frank O'Hara, Ted Berrigan and John Forbes traces a tradition of revolutionary self-mythologising in the lives and works of Frank O'Hara, Ted Berrigan and John Forbes, as a significant trefoil in twentieth-century English language poetry. All three had untimely deaths, excited a collective homage, and developed cult followings that reverberate today. This book tracks the transmission of the poem as charm, the poet as charmer, and the reinstitution of troubadour erotics as a kind of social poetics. Starting with Orpheus, the book refreshes the myth of the poet as mythmaker, examining how myths of "self" and "nation" are regenerated for the twenty-first century and how persons-as-myths are made in community through coteries of artists and beyond. Duncan Bruce Hose's critical vocabulary, with its nucleus of mythos, searches the edges of phenomenal enquiry, closing in on the work of "glamour", "aura", "charm", "possession", "phantasm", the "daemonic", and the logic of haunting in the continuing being of these three poets as "charismatic animals".

Book excerpt: "Duncan Hose treads the lesser-known path of maverick Australian poets such as Norman Talbot, John Watson and Javant Biarujia--that is, like all good must-read poets, he invents a new language, full of playful disguises and serious intent, reaffirming Baudelaire's view that only the human-made is beautiful." - Gig Ryan Duncan Hose is from the softslang line of the chansonnier, whose reference points range between Trefoil Island, Melbourne and Coney Island.

Book excerpt: Poetry. "Hemensley reads his poetry in a warm accent of old Hampshire and more recent Dorset overlaid with Melbourne, unconsciously abstracting his past. This book is not a harvest of words but a mapping of fields, and paths, from impressions distilled through memory and reference to lexical imagery. Hemensley dares to have a conversation with language, and language reveals the nature of what it is to be human." Lucas Weschke"
Download or read book Prose Poetry written by Paul Hetherington and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-10-13 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An engaging and authoritative introduction to an increasingly important and popular literary genre Prose Poetry is the first book of its kind—an engaging and authoritative introduction to the history, development, and features of English-language prose poetry, an increasingly important and popular literary form that is still too little understood and appreciated. Poets and scholars Paul Hetherington and Cassandra Atherton introduce prose poetry’s key characteristics, chart its evolution from the nineteenth century to the present, and discuss many historical and contemporary prose poems that both demonstrate their great diversity around the Anglophone world and show why they represent some of today’s most inventive writing. A prose poem looks like prose but reads like poetry: it lacks the line breaks of other poetic forms but employs poetic techniques, such as internal rhyme, repetition, and compression. Prose Poetry explains how this form opens new spaces for writers to create riveting works that reshape the resources of prose while redefining the poetic. Discussing prose poetry’ s precursors, including William Wordsworth and Walt Whitman, and prose poets such as Charles Simic, Russell Edson, Lydia Davis, and Claudia Rankine, the book pays equal attention to male and female prose poets, documenting women’s essential but frequently unacknowledged contributions to the genre. Revealing how prose poetry tests boundaries and challenges conventions to open up new imaginative vistas, this is an essential book for all readers, students, teachers, and writers of prose poetry.

Download or read book Field Guide to Poetry written by Enthusiast and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Enthusiast Field Guide to Poetry is a fresh, vibrant and richly involving collection of poems and poetic fragments, accompanied by an enlightening apparatus of comment and digression in the inimitable and unmistakeable style of the Enthusiast. The 250 poems selected come from every period of literature in English, from the age of Chaucer to the age of Heaney, and from writers inhabiting every corner of the English-speaking world (and further afield): from Browning to Berryman, from Langland to Lorca, from Pope to Pasternak, from Sappho to Shelley, and from Whitman to Wordsworth. The Enthusiast Field Guide to Poetry enhances the reader's enjoyment and appreciation of the poems not just by highlighting their distinguishing features (choice of language, figures of speech etc.), but also via biographical and other literary-historical nuggets, intriguing and thought-provoking insights into the writing of the poems, and a host of other apposite exegetical aperçus. True to the philosophy and temperament of the Enthusiast, The Enthusiast Field Guide to Poetry is anything but predictable. The poems chosen include some all-time greats, but also some half-forgotten and hardly known poems. And while the annotations always enlighten, they do not adhere slavishly to any set pattern and, crucially, they always set out to delight - and sometimes to provoke. Authoritative but not stuffy, irreverent but not flippant, instructive but not dogmatic, The Enthusiast Field Guide to Poetry is the perfect collection for anyone looking for a poetry anthology that offers something rather more than the poems themselves.

Download or read book Saints of Hysteria written by David Trinidad and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2007-03-06 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Collaborative poetry — poems written by one or more people — grew out of word games played by French surrealists in the 1920s. It was taken up a decade later by Japan’s Vou Club and then by Charles Henri Ford, who created the chainpoem, composed by poets who mailed their lines all over the world. After WW II, the Beat writers’ collaborative experiments resulted in the famous Pull My Daisy. The concept was embraced in the 1970s by feminist poets as a way to find a collective female voice. Yet, for all its rich history, virtually no collections of collaborative poetry exist. This exhilarating anthology remedies the omission. Featured are poems by two, four, even as many as 18 people in a dizzying array of forms: villanelles to ghazals, sonnets to somonkas, pantoums to haiku, even quizzes, questionnaires, and other nonliterary forms. Collaborators’ notes accompany many of the poems, giving a fascinating glimpse into the creative process.
