Download or read book Reading Fiona Sampson written by Omar Sabbagh and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2020-07-15 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book-length study of an eminent, distinguished and influential poet and contemporary woman of letters integrates analysis and a honed interpretation of the near-total gamut of the oeuvre to-date of Professor Fiona Sampson. The study includes biographical insight and synthesizes its rigorous discussions of the dominant rubric of Professor Sampson’s poetic métier, her prose in different genres, and the literary practices of over a decades-long and much-lauded literary career. This critical work finds and displays incisive and fruitful ways by which the oeuvre in question crosses boundaries in literary writing and practices with fertile results and evidences those cross-currents in a manner that indicates the trajectory of a sensibility or structure of feeling, one which though highly intelligent and self-aware is also deeply empathic. A lucid, coherent and compelling reading of Sampson’s main works makes this book a scintillating study and a much needed contribution to the current work being done on major contemporary poets and writers and, in particular, contemporary women figures, in the British and international literary scenes.

Download or read book Lyric Cousins written by Fiona Sampson and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2016-10-27 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leading poet, critic and former musician explores the 'deep forms' common to both poetry and musicToday, poetry and art music occupy similar cultural positions: each has a tendency to be regarded as problematic, adifficult and therefore aelitist. Despite this, the audiences and numbers of participants for each are substantial: yet they tend not to overlap. This is odd, because the forms share early history in song and saga, and have some striking similarities, often summed up in the word lyric.These similarities include much that is most significant to the experience of each, and so of most interest to practitioners and audiences. They encompass, at the very least: the way each art-form is aural, and takes place in time; a shared reliance on temporal, rather than spatial, forms; an engagement with sensory experience and pleasure; availability for both shared public performance and private reading, sight-reading and hearing in memory; and scope for non-denotative meaning. In other words, looking at these elements in music is a way to look at them in poetry, and vice versa.This is a study of these two formal craft traditions that is concerned with the similarities in their roles, structures, projects and capacities.Key FeaturesSets out a new way to think about both music and poetry Doesnt make its arguments from within or for one particular school of music or poetry but has wide applicability Uses each 'cousin' art-form to cast light on the other as a whole: it is not just for poet-musicians, or musicians writing for voiceA rare 'joint' perspective: written by an award-winning poet who was formerly a professional musician

Book excerpt: Not everyone flees a steamy back seat session without an explanation but that’s how my new single mom life starts out. From Marie Johnston comes a small town romance with a newly single mom and a guy who's sworn off relationships. I don’t expect to see that guy again. All he knows of me is that I’m new in town and freshly divorced, not that I have four kids and have zero interest in dating. Yet who do I find coaching my son’s third grade football team? My random hookup, Holden Barron, looking even better in broad daylight. I assume a guy like him will stay far away now that he’s seen the hot mess of my life, but he won’t quit finding reasons to hang out with me. Like helping with my kids at the clinic after my son takes a hard sack. Horse riding lessons for my oldest daughter. A movie night. And the first weekend my kids are with their dad… Well, no back seat required. But I’ve trusted the wrong man before, and Holden’s history with women doesn’t scream commitment.

Download or read book Music in Conflict written by Nili Belkind and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-10-15 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music in Conflict studies the complex relationship of musical culture to political life in Palestine-Israel, where conflict has both shaped and claimed the lives of Palestinians and Jews. In the context of the geography of violence that characterizes the conflict, borders and boundaries are material and social manifestations of the ways in which the production of knowledge is conditioned by political and structural violence. Ethical and aesthetic positions that shape artistic production in this context are informed by profound imbalances of power and contingent exposure to violence. Viewing expressive culture as a potent site for understanding these dynamics, the book examines the politics of sound to show how music-making reflects and forms identities, and in the process, shapes communities. The ethnography is based on fieldwork conducted in Israel and the West Bank in 2011–2012 and other excursions since then. Author has "followed the conflict" by "following the music," from concert halls to demonstrations, mixed-city community centers to Palestinian refugee camp children’s clubs, alternative urban scenes and even a checkpoint. In all the different contexts presented, the monograph is thematically and theoretically underpinned by the ways in which music is used to culturally assert or reterritorialize both spatial and social boundaries in a situation of conflict.
