Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume One: 1898–1922 presents some 1,400 letters encompassing the years of Eliot's childhood in St. Louis, Missouri, through 1922, by which time the poet had settled in England, married his first wife, and published The Waste Land. Since the first publication of this volume in 1988, many new materials from British and American sources have come to light. More than two hundred of these newly discovered letters are now included, filling crucial gaps in the record and shedding new light on Eliot's activities in London during and after the First World War. Volume Two: 1923–1925 covers the early years of Eliot's editorship of The Criterion, publication of The Hollow Men, and his developing thought about poetry and poetics. The volume offers 1,400 letters, charting Eliot's journey toward conversion to the Anglican faith, as well as his transformation from banker to publisher and his appointment as director of the new publishing house Faber & Gwyer. The prolific and various correspondence in this volume testifies to Eliot's growing influence as cultural commentator and editor.
Download or read book How We Do it written by Judy Dutton and published by Broadway. This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating exposé of what revs our sexual engines—and how knowing what happens behind the sex-lab door will make us better lovers. Did you know that the scent that turns on men the most is pumpkin pie mixed with lavender—and that women have been known to go wild from a whiff of Good & Plenty and cucumber? Sex researchers have been documenting the many esoteric aspects of the erotic realm for years, and now the laboratory door is open to you. How can you increase the odds of attracting a mate? (Using a new nickname might do the trick.) Is it possible to orgasm just by thinking about it? (Some people can—maybe you’re one of them.) Can you prevent your partner from straying? (Thereisa vaccine—but so far it’s been tested only on rodents).How We Do Itanswers these questions and more, revealing the mysteries of what turns us on and why, and highlighting the latest, greatest, and most bizarre experiments heating up laboratories around the world today and throughout history. More than a survey of sexual experimentation, it’s a guide to heating up your sex life, showing how to improve your sexual performance, from the first sparks to the climactic finale, backed by scientific research.
Download or read book One Love Affair written by Jenny Boully and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. [ONE LOVE AFFAIR]* meditates on mud daubers, Duras, and the deaths of mentally ill and drug addicted lovers, blurring fiction, essay, and memoir in an extended prose poem that is as much as study of how we read as it is a treatise on the language of love affairs: a language of hidden messages, coded words, cryptic gestures, and suspicion. As with Jenny Boully's debut book THE BODY (2002), [ONE LOVE AFFAIR]* is full of gaps and fissures and "seduces its reader by drawing unexpected but felicitous linkages between disparate citations from the history of literature," a work that is "filled with the exegetical projection of our own imagination" --Christian Bok. Told through fragments that accrete through uncertain meanings, romanticized memories, and fleeting moments rather than clear narrative or linear time Boully explores the spaces between too much and barely enough, fecundity and decay, the sublime and the disgusting, wholeness and emptiness, love and loneliness in a world where life can be interpreted as a series of love affairs that are "unwilling to complete."

Book Synopsis The Wounded Researcher by : Robert D. Romanyshyn
Download or read book The Wounded Researcher written by Robert D. Romanyshyn and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-08-14 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Wounded Researcher addresses the crises of epistemological violence when we fail to consider that a researcher is addressed by and drawn into a work through his or her complexes. Using a Jungian-Archetypal perspective, this book argues that the bodies of knowledge we create degenerate into ideologies, which are the death of critical thinking, if the complexity of the research process is ignored. Writing with soul in mind invites us to consider how we might write down the soul in writing up our research.
Download or read book Consolations written by David Whyte and published by Canongate Books. This book was released on 2019-11-07 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Consolations David Whyte unpacks aspects of being human that many of us spend our lives trying vainly to avoid - loss, heartbreak, vulnerability, fear - boldly reinterpreting them, fully embracing their complexity, never shying away from paradox in his relentless search for meaning. Beginning with 'Alone' and closing with 'Withdrawal', each piece in this life-affirming book is a meditation on meaning and context, an invitation to shift and broaden our perspectives on life: pain and joy, honesty and anger, confession and vulnerability, the experience of feeling overwhelmed and the desire to run away from it all. Through this lens, procrastination may be a necessary ripening; hiding an act of freedom; and shyness something that accompanies the first stage of revelation. Consolations invites readers into a poetic and thoughtful consideration of words whose meaning and interpretation influence the paths we choose and the way we traverse them throughout our lives.

Download or read book The Poems of Catullus written by Catullus and published by Graphic Arts Books. This book was released on 2020-12-08 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Poems of Catullus describes the lifestyle of the Latin poet Catullus, his friends, and his lover, Lesbia. Catullus writes about each of his subjects in tones unique to them. With wild stories of the trouble and comradery shared by his friends, Catullus provides insight on more scandalous aspects of high society Roman culture. However, Catullus’ most shocking and compelling subject is his lover, Lesbia, the wife of an aristocrat. The two share a secret and sensual love, taboo not just because of the infidelity, but because Lesbia is many years older than Catullus. Throughout his poems, Catullus depicts their complicated relationship, first in a tender, lustful way, detailing their affairs, then gradually becomes more heated with angst and confusion. In his exploration of their relationship, Catullus embodies the possibility of simultaneously loving and hating someone. With vivid emotion and imagery, The Poems of Catullus provide a clear picture of the poet, his friends, and his lover and invoke a strong impression on its audience. Because of the deep emotions infused with each word and the visceral depictions of ancient Roman life, this collection of poetry is relatable to a modern-day audience, and is an essential educational source. Catullus paved the way and inspired change in the art of poetry, influencing countless poets and poetry styles. The Poems of Catullus also helped create the idea of poetry as a profession. The Poems of Catullus serves a valuable and educational source, enlightening audiences on the culture of the upper-class of the late Roman Republic. However, because Catullus also explores the complex human emotions regarding friendship, sex, and love, The Poems of Catullus have proven to be a timeless testament to the duality of humankind, embracing emotions that lie between the extremes in the spectrum of feeling. Catering to a contemporary audience, this edition of The Poems of Catullus features a new, eye-catching cover design and is reprinted in a modern font to accompany the timeless exploration of human emotion and the humorous, exciting life events of the influential poet Catullus.

Download or read book Anthology of a One-Sided Love Affair written by Steve Hall and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-11-22 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Truth has turned against me as it can be overpowering When she asked me a question I told the truth, knowing it would be more than she wanted to hear. Sometimes I wish I had been less than truthful...". I fell in love; she did not. An affair, one-sided and short lived, brings many things; temporary euphoria, excitement, intimacy, energy, and purpose. It can also bring pain when you discover you were the only party to it, and disappointment to others in your life. Weigh carefully what you stand to lose versus what you think you will gain. When the dust settles, much could be lost."
