Download or read book Poems of Yosemite written by Charles Weeden and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-12-29 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poems of Yosemite is a collection of poems written over a fifty-year period of living and hiking in the High Sierra. These poems try to reflect the mountains as the Yosemite's polished granite reflects the light. In "Shadow Lake," for instance, the author remembers resting on the same rocks as he had forty years before, "what distance from same place, what sameness with distant self?" And as he sees the missing "mystic moiety" of Half Dome reflected in Mirror Lake, he too sees, "my unhalf-those thoughts unthought and that life unlived." Though the mountains remain unchanged, the life reflected by them does. Yosemite is Weeden's touchstone for, "the distance traveled."

Download or read book Literature Nature and Other written by Patrick D. Murphy and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1995-02-01 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book first establishes a theoretical framework for conceptualizing environmental analysis. It then develops a conception of environmental literature with an emphasis on works by women, arguing for the need to reconceptualize woman/nature and nature/culture associations, and critiquing the problems of male poetic sex-typing of the planet. Murphy also elaborates on specific works and authors, with an emphasis on literary texts by Hampl, Harjo, Snyder, and Le Guin. Additionally, he treats issues of canon and pedagogy, as well as the possibility of agency in a postmodern era. Ranging across diverse fields and incorporating cultural studies, post-structuralist literary theory, and ecofeminist philosophy, Literature, Nature, and Other both defines and critiques the current terrains of literary ecocriticism and nature writing/environmental literature. Literary examples are drawn from fiction, poetry, and prose, including postmodern metanarratives and works by Native Americans and Chicanas.
Download or read book Selected Poems of Mona Van Duyn written by Mona Van Duyn and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2008-12-30 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This generous selection of Mona Van Duyn’s distinguished, award-winning work spans four decades. Beginning with her classic Valentines to the Wide World (1959), encompassing the intimate voice of Bedtime Stories (1972) and the moving Letters from a Father (1982), crowned by the life-spanning Firefall (1993), Selected Poems reacquaints us with a poet whose ear is keenly tuned to the music of nature and human conversation. In lively and varied forms, from her minimalist sonnets to her magisterial longer pieces, Van Duyn captures a multiplicity of worlds within her world, in a tone inflected by both Midwestern pragmatism and a deep metaphysical intelligence. As she contemplates the act of reading in bed, a Rhenish sculpture in the Cloisters, or the loss of her mother, the poet goes beyond context to discover consciousness: an expression of the larger ideas and emotions—finally, the art—in the smallest details of our lives.
Download or read book A Library of the World s Best Literature Ancient and Modern Vol XLII Forty Five Volumes Dictionary of Authors A J written by Charles Dudley Warner and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2008-07-01 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popular American essayist, novelist, and journalist CHARLES DUDLEY WARNER (1829-1900) was renowned for the warmth and intimacy of his writing, which encompassed travelogue, biography and autobiography, fiction, and more, and influenced entire generations of his fellow writers. Here, the prolific writer turned editor for his final grand work, a splendid survey of global literature, classic and modern, and it's not too much to suggest that if his friend and colleague Mark Twain-who stole Warner's quip about how "everybody complains about the weather, but nobody does anything about it"-had assembled this set, it would still be hailed today as one of the great achievements of the book world. Volume 42 is Part One of a dictionary of authors-from Alexis Aar to Juvenal-that serves as a handy, condensed reference to the authors quoted in the first 40 volumes, as well as a guide to thousands more authors whose works are notable but not featured in this set.
