Download or read book The Poetry of Ted Hughes written by Dr. Paul Bentley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-07-22 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text provides a lucid and accessible introduction to the poetry of Ted Hughes, a major figure in twentieth- century poetry whose work is concerned with the forces of nature and their interaction with the human mind. It is also the first full length study to place Hughes's poetry in the context of significant developments in literary theory that have occured during his life, drawing in particular on the 'French theorists'- Jacques Lacan, Julia Kristeva, and Roland Barthes. The study sheds new light on Hughes's prosody, and on such matters as Hughes's relation to the 'Movement' poets, the influence of Sylvia Plath, his relation to Romanticism, his interest in myth and shamanism, and the implications of the Laureateship for his work. The poems are presented in chronological order, tracing the development of Hughes's highly distinctive style. The study also discusses Hughes's recently published non-fiction- Winter Pollen (1994) and Shakespeare and the Goddess of Complete Being (1992). The Poetry of Ted Hughes is indispensable for all students and academics interested in contemporary poetry and culture.
Download or read book Theme of Violence In Ted Hughes s Poetry A Study of Selected Poems written by Ritu Sharma and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2015-09-22 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ted Hughes is a versatile genius.He is famous as a poet of violence. Violence is essentially one of his obsessive themes in his poetry. Hughes seems to equate violence with vehement activity, a destructive one.This study mainly takes up poems from his first two collections The Hawk in the Rain and Lupercal. It is an attempt to understand the interconnection between animal imagery and violence. In fact, the early poetry of Ted Hughes is the poetry of animal world. Violence is often implicated in his celebration of the instinctual energy symbolized by animals.We find that the poetry of Ted Hughes has an element of violence. For him violence and power go together: his own dark Gods are the marker of the tiger, not the lamb. Critics have generally referred to the presence of violence in the poetry of Ted Hughes. But no detailed study is available where the wide meanings of this aspect are sought to be understood.

This book was released on 2022-02-07 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ted Hughes, Sylvia Plath, and Writing Between Them: Turning the Table examines early draft manuscripts and published poems by Ted Hughes and Sylvia Plath in order to uncover the compositional approaches that they held in common. Both poets not only honed the minutiae of individual poems but also reworked the shape of overall sequences in order to cultivate unique theories of an ars poetica. The book incorporates drafts of their work from Indiana University’s Lilly Library, Emory University’s Manuscripts, Archives, and Rare Books Library, Smith College’s Mortimer Rare Book Room, and the British Library. After assessing the writing and revision strategies that the poets’ early drafts reveal, the book investigates the material that they borrowed from one another and then reimagined through two major sequences: Plath’s Ariel and Hughes’s Crow. The book enhances its analysis of the poets’ shared techniques by discussing several pairs of poems from Ariel and Hughes’s Birthday Letters that respond to one another. Its final chapter also includes an evaluation of some of Hughes’s unpublished journal entries and unpublished letters that comment on his last collection’s public reception. In the conclusion, the author chronicles Hughes’s and Plath’s own remarks on their writing process as further evidence of their ars poetica.

Download or read book The Art of Ted Hughes written by Keith Sagar and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1978-11-02 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr Sagar believes that when we see Ted Hughes work as a whole, with each book a stage in a psychic adventure involving new stylistic challenge, we shall see it to be the achievement of a major poet. In this study of Ted Hughes, Dr Sagar gives most of his attention to individual poems, their meaning and coherence, their relation to each other and to the poetic tradition, their sources and background (often in mythology and folklore), and their relevance to living in our time. He began reading Hughes in 1957 when The Hawk in the Ruin appeared, and has followed his development closely ever since: here, with benefit of hindsight, he attempts to retrace that journey. A chapter is devoted to each major work.

Earth is revealed in all its surprising richness and rawness, and so is humankind's own constantly changing relationship with the seasons.
Download or read book The Challenge of Ted Hughes written by Keith M. Sagar and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 1994-01-01 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a recent interview Hughes said, 'one of the great problems that poetry works at is to renew life, renew the poet's own life, and, by implication, renew the life of the people, if they can respond to the way he has done it for himself'. This book is an attempt to contribute to such a response. The focus is on Hughes's poetry since Crow (1970). The difficulty of this later work often lies in its extreme simplicity, stripped of the surface 'poetry' the conventional critic is trained to respond to. Many of these poems are sources of great psychic or spiritual power if we can tap them, but our standard critical equipment seems obsolete. The contributors, some established critics and scholars, some young critics bringing fresh and varied approaches to bear, analyze many individual poems and sequences, but also offer, jointly, a new, comprehensive, and unusually integrated reading of one of our greatest living writers.
