Download or read book Gender Trouble Couplets written by A. W. Strouse and published by punctum books. This book was released on 2019 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Judith Butler's GENDER TROUBLE: Feminism and the Subversion of Identity radically claimed that the sexed body is a fallacy, discursively constructed by the performance of gender. A.W. Strouse has undertaken to rewrite Butler's classic tome into an octosyllabic poem. Inspired by the rhyming encyclopedias of the Middle Ages, Strouse transforms each of Butler's sentences into punchy medieval couplets. This performative repetition of Chapter 1 of Butler's now classic treatise on gender, identity, and sexuality, "Subjects of Sex/Gender/Desire," deconstructs Butler's deconstruction. Relishing in the campiness of rhyme and meter-in the bodily pleasures of form-Strouse's GENDER TROUBLE COUPLETS, Volume 1 is an imitation for which there is no original. Butler's GENDER TROUBLE, perhaps, was poetry all along. "In the tradition of the Revolutionary Cookbook ("Eggs Benedict Arnold"), teaching Structuralism through Hipster vs. Amish beards ("Is that beard ironic?"), and literary hostess gifts ("Lady Macbeth's Soap"), comes this brilliant rhymed couplet version of Judith Butler's Gender Trouble. Rarely has a poet applied his gifts to a more deserving subject. Strouse is the the Jeff Koons of queer theory, the Kim Kardashian of différance, the Lisa Frank of same-sex. In the grand tradition of rhymed pedagogical commentary - think Chaucer teaching Litel Louis how to use the Astrolabe - this funny and useful book will be an instant bestseller, a perfect gift for the nerd and hipster in your life, and the best Valentine cadeau for your secret queer crush whom you want but cannot quite name." Anna M. Klosowska, author of QUEER LOVE IN THE MIDDLE AGES (Palgrave, 2005) A.W. STROUSE teaches medieval literature at The New School, and has published a wide variety of creative works, including MY GAY MIDDLE AGES (punctum, 2015) and with Patty Barth, TRANSFER QUEEN (punctum, 2018).

Book excerpt: The fifteenth century saint-poet Kabir's extempore outpourings of songs and couplets numbering thousands have been hailed widely for their deep spiritual fervour and poetic quality. They are widely read with rapture and regard by old and young alike in India. Kabir's couplets which are considered as rich gems for their spiritual message and worldly wisdom have not been rendered into English so far. Here are rhymed English verse translation of three hundred of them from a wide cross-section of the multifaced genius' utterances. Under each verse has been given a few lines in prose to help the reader grasp the underlying import of the message of the saint-poet.

Book excerpt: "The book strikes a balance between classical fundamental information and the recent developments in plant systematics. Special attention has been devoted to the information on botanical nomenclature, identification and phylogeny of angiosperms with numerous relevant examples and detailed explanation of the important nomenclatural problems. An attempt has been made to present a continuity between orthodox and contemporary identification methods by working on a common example. The methods of identification using computers have been further explored to help better online identification. The chapter on cladistic methods has been totally revised, and molecular systematics discussed in considerable detail."--Jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the incomparable David Rakoff, a poignant, beautiful, witty and wise novel in verse whose scope spans the 20th Century. David Rakoff, who died in 2012 at the age of 47, built a deserved reputation as one of the finest and funniest essayists of our time. This intricately woven novel, written with humour, sympathy and tenderness, proves him the master of an altogether different art form. Love, Dishonor, Marry, Die; Cherish, Perish leaps cities and decades as Rakoff, a Canadian who became an American citizen, sings the song of his adoptive homeland--a country whose freedoms can be intoxicating, or brutal. Here the characters' lives are linked to each other by acts of generosity or cruelty. A critic once called Rakoff "magnificent," a word which perfectly describes this wonderful novel in verse.

Book excerpt: A New York Times New & Noteworthy Book • "Strange and affectionate, like Almost Famous penned by Shakespeare. A love letter to music in all its myriad iterations."—Kirkus Reviews • "This book has no business being as good as it is."—Christian Wiman In the year 2063, on the edge of the Crater formerly known as Montréal, a middle-aged man and his ex’s daughter search for a cult hero: the leader of a short-lived band named after a forgotten work of poetry and known to fans through a forgotten work of music criticism. In this exuberantly plotted verse novel, Guriel follows an obsessive cult-following through the twenty-first century. Some things change (there’s metamorphic smart print for music mags; the Web is called the “Zuck”). Some things don’t (poetry readings are still, mostly, terrible). But the characters, including a robot butler who stands with Ishiguro’s Stevens as one of the great literary domestics, are unforgettable. Splicing William Gibson with Roberto Bolaño, Pale Fire with Thomas Pynchon, Forgotten Work is a time-tripping work of speculative fiction. It’s a love story about fandom, an ode to music snobs, a satire on the human need to value the possible over the actual—and a verse novel of Nabokovian virtuosity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Volume Was An Offering To The Memory Of Rabindranath Tagore On The Occasion Of The Centenary Of His Birth. If The Best Homage To A Great Man Is To Be Paid Through An Understanding Of The Significance Of His Life And Work, This Publication Should Help Inspire Such A Homage Of Understanding. This Reprint Of The Book; Undertaken To Mark The 125Th Birth Anniversary Of The Poet, Will Bring Once Again To The Collective Consciousness Of A New Generation Of Men And Women The Memory Of A Greatness Which Was Amazing In Its Versality And Universal In Its Integrated Vision Of Life. Rabindranath Has Not Only Been A One-Man Synthesis Of The Old And The New, The Ancient And Modern, But He Has Also Been, Because Of His Extra-Ordinary Catholicity Of Mind, A Leading Light To The World Struggling To Be Reborn Into Sanity. Great Poets, It Is Said, Are For Ever Our Contemporaries And Some Of The Essays In This Volume Should Hopefully Drive Home The Relevance Of Rabindranath And All That He Stood For, As A Corrective To Our Age Of Cynic Despair. The Volume Contains Valuable Studies On The Many Aspects Of TagoreýS Personality And Genius Contributed By Eminent Writers And Scholars From Many Parts Of The World. There Are, Besides, A Full And Comprehensive Chronicle Of The PoetýS Life, From Year To Year, And A Bibliography Of His Publications In Bengali And English. Reproductions In Colour Of Some Famous Portraits Of The Poet By Distinguished Artists Add To The Value Of This Publication Which Is As Much A Tribute To The Genius Of Tagore As A Guide To Its Comprehension.
