Download or read book The Hide and seek Muse written by Lisa Russ Spaar and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Literary Nonfiction. Poetry History & Criticism. Introduction by Nick Flynn. From 2010 to 2012, Guggenheim Fellow and award-winning poet Lisa Russ Spaar was the poetry editor for the Chronicle of Higher Education's Arts & Academe and Brainstorm blogs, where every Monday she regaled an ever-growing audience with a brief commentary on a poem of her choosing. This book collects the best of these memorable micro-essays, demonstrating how a well-wrought poem speaks to our rich cultural and spiritual life. As the title essay reveals, Spaar's own father believed that "poetry was out to trick him" and in this collection, encompassing a range of crucial poets from the formal to the experimental, Spaar gently and lovingly debunks that notion, showing us the vital place that contemporary poetry can have in the life of the mind. This is an enthralling book for poets and non-poets alike. "For people who are a bit wary of poetry, this is the perfect antidote: the poems are amazing, and so are Lisa Russ Spaar's short essays. There s a sense of clarity about everything here (not that things aren't complex; not that Lisa's analyses aren't fascinating constructs themselves, insightful and inspiring, though not intimidating.) I'd think anyone who cares about an inner reality that might be somehow communicated nailed; set free; amplified; questioned would embrace the chance to read poems that elucidate so much about the mind and the heart, and to understand better the urges embodied in the process of constructing a poem, which always speaks from its structure of restraint. I loved every minute of reading this book." Ann Beattie "Lisa Russ Spaar has an intense and generous spirit. She loves poetry and honors the people who read and write it. Reading her you remember once again that there's no such thing as a bad poem or a bad reader. Time will tell which ones are better and best. This book follows many roads, some less traveled than others and Lisa has a wonderful eye for the wildflowers elsewhere."

Book excerpt: The poems are generally separated into two significant gatherings: the reasonable master pieces (1-126) and the dull woman works (127-154). The reasonable master poems investigate the storyteller's burning-through fixation on a youthful and lovely man, while the dim woman pieces draw in his indecent craving for a lady who isn't his significant other. The storyteller is tortured as he battles to accommodate the wild desires of his heart with his brain's better judgment, at the same time in a urgent test of skill and endurance. The poems start with the storyteller's request to the reasonable ruler, urging him to protect his excellence for people in the future by giving it to a youngster. This topic is created until poem 18, where the storyteller forsakes it for an elective intend to eternalize the reasonable master's excellence in his refrain. Yet, it isn't some time before the storyteller's resonant portrayals of the reasonable master's magnificence are supplanted with the eerie mourn of solitary love. The storyteller becomes progressively fascinated with the reasonable ruler, in the long run getting genuinely needy upon him and tormented by the failure to win his heart. The storyteller is additionally troubled by the ceaseless sitting back, and he fears the drawback time definitely will bring to the reasonable master's young excellence. The storyteller's feelings vary among affection and outrage, jealousy and ravenousness. We find powerful instances of the storyteller's desire in the adversary writer pieces (79-86), where the reasonable master's consideration has been gotten by another. The storyteller's delicate mind implodes in episodes of self-belittling as he struggles with the idea of everlastingly losing the object of his love. In poem 87, the storyteller says goodbye to the reasonable master - yet his anguish long continues. The rest of the reasonable master poems are described by the changes of the storyteller's enthusiastic prosperity. After his leaving behind the reasonable master in poem 87, the storyteller becomes contemplative, waxing philosophical as he tests the very texture of adoration. All through these improvements we are made conscious of the storyteller's mounting fear that his time is running low. At long last, in poem 126, his adoration developed at this point still lovely, the storyteller brings up that the reasonable ruler also will one day meet his destruction. The accompanying work starts the dull woman arrangement, the gathering of poems managing the storyteller's powerful fascination in a dim and excellent lady. Here the appeal isn't of affection yet of desire, and the storyteller is conflicted between his crave the lady and his sicken at the corruption of animalistic longing. The dull woman is portrayed as unreservedly unbridled, the encapsulation of lascivious undertaking. Drawn by and simultaneously repulsed by her haziness, the storyteller indeed returns to thoughtful psyche meandering to adapt to his circumstance. Eventually, the storyteller's desire is communicated as a hopeless sickness, a consuming impression that must be extinguished, assuming briefly, by the eyes of the dull woman.

Download or read book Tony Harrison written by Edith Hall and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-14 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book-length study of the classicism of Tony Harrison, one of the most important contemporary poets in England and the world. It argues that his unique and politically radical classicism is inextricable from his core notion that poetry should be a public property in which communal problems are shared and crystallised, and that the poet has a responsibility to speak in a public voice about collective and political concerns. Enriched by Edith Hall's longstanding friendship with Harrison and involvement with his most recent drama, inspired by Euripides' Iphigenia in Tauris, it also asserts that his greatest innovations in both form and style have been direct results of his intense engagements with individual works of ancient literature and his belief that the ancient Greek poetic imagination was inherently radical. Tony Harrison's large body of work, for which he has won several major and international prizes, and which features on the UK National Curriculum, ranges widely across long and short poems, plays, translations and film poems. Having studied Classics at Grammar School and University and having translated ancient poets from Aeschylus to Martial and Palladas, Harrison has been immersed in the myths, history, literary forms and authorial voices of Mediterranean antiquity for his entire working life and his classical interests are reflected in every poetic genre he has essayed, from epigrams and sonnets to original stage plays, translations of Greek drama and Racine, to his experimental and harrowing film poems, where he has pioneered the welding of tightly cut video materials to tightly phrased verse forms. This volume explores the full breadth of his oeuvre, offering an insightful new perspective on a writer who has played an important part in shaping our contemporary literary landscape.
