Book Synopsis The Poetry of Juan Ramón Jiménez. by : Julio Hans C. Jensen
Download or read book The Poetry of Juan Ramón Jiménez. written by Julio Hans C. Jensen and published by Museum Tusculanum Press. This book was released on 2012-07-01 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Spanish poet Juan Ramón Jiménez (1881–1958; Nobel laureate 1956) wrote at a key moment in literary history. Since Jiménez’s lyrical output covers the poetic tradition from Romanticism through Symbolism to the Avant-Gardes, his work can be regarded as a condensation of the modern paradigm. Julio Jensen investigates the lyrical subject appearing in Jiménez’s poetry as exemplary of the notion of modern subjectivity. He does so by assuming a historical correlation between literature and philosophy in the sense that if philosophical discourse conceptualizes the prevailing understanding of the human being at a given moment, literary discourse represents it. Modern thought does not accept any other foundation than subjectivity. At the same time, the awareness of the subject’s finitude engenders pessimism with respect to its status as world-generating principle. One of the primary aims of this study, then, is to show how Jiménez poignantly enacts this vacillation between self-enthronement and self-eradication. With insightful readings of Jiménez’s poetry, the author opens a rich vein in the work of a writer who would serve as a central reference for later Spanish-language poets such as Federico Garcá Lorca, Pablo Neruda and Octavio Paz.

Book Synopsis God Desired and Desiring by : Juan Ramón Jiménez
Download or read book God Desired and Desiring written by Juan Ramón Jiménez and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000-07 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of my poetry has been and is the development of an encounter with an idea about God, the great Spanish poet and Nobel Prize winner Juan Ramón Jiménez wrote several years before his death. An early twentieth-century pioneer in the use of free verse, Jiménez has always expressed himself through mystery and profundity. The author presents a fervent landscape of primordial imagery in an attempt to restore mystical poetry to its rightful place in literature and art. For anyone not familiar with the writings of this modern master, these austere and radiant poems, translated by the poet and scholar Antonio de Nicolás and presented alongside the original Spanish, will demonstrate why Jiménez is considered one of the masters of twentieth-century poetry. To what may this writing be compared? Whitman's 'Song of Myself' comes to mind, but it is not with any intention of taking away from Whitman's achievement that I declare a preference for the poetry of Juan Ramón Jiménez ...

Book Synopsis The Impossible Takes Longer by : David Pratt
Download or read book The Impossible Takes Longer written by David Pratt and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2009-05-26 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Witty, incisive observations on such universally meaningful topics as courage and compassion by many of the greatest minds of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Since 1901, the Nobel Prize has been the hallmark of genius, but Nobel laureates tend to be more than merely brilliant-their idealism, courage, and concern for humanity have also made them sources of inspiration and wisdom. Contrary to the notion that geniuses are absentminded eccentrics who lead solitary lives, many Nobel laureates have been social activists and political leaders, and some have been polymaths whose interests and talents were diverse, such as Philip Noel-Baker, winner of the 1959 Peace prize, who ran in three Olympic Games. Most of the quotations have never been anthologized previously. There is a section of short biographical sketches of each of the roughly 250 laureates quoted in the book, a brief history of the Nobel Prize, and a complete list of every Nobel laureate through 2006. The Impossible Takes Longer is a remarkable assemblage of insightful, thought-provoking, sometimes humorous statements by some of the world's wisest men and women.

Book excerpt: After her husbands deathending a marriage of 58 yearsand in the midst of paralyzing grief, Anita Garman senses she is on a parallel journey with her husbands soul. Ever distrustful of her own feelings, she finds herself in a ceaseless inner struggle between doubt and belief, reason and intuition. But when a friend begins to recount dreams of messages sent her, which are unmistakably from her husband, Anita begins to challenge her own skepticism. A string of mysteriously synchronous events, together with her rediscovery of his love poems to her, draws her deep into a new relationship with him. Her husbands poetry and Anitas letters to him intertwine to set up a connection that echoes across time and space as, late in life, she finds her way to a deeper, truer way of loving. This memoir is a magical love story of possibility that reaches beyond the threshold of death to unite earth and spirit in a promise of limitless connection.

Book Synopsis Ruben Dario Centennial Studies by : Miguel Gonzalez-Gerth
Download or read book Ruben Dario Centennial Studies written by Miguel Gonzalez-Gerth and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2014-07-03 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rubén Darío (1867–1916), the undisputed standard-bearer of the Modernist movement in Hispanic letters, was born in Nicaragua. In 1886 he went to Chile, where he published Azul (1888), his first important book of poems and stories. Later he lived for extended periods in Argentina, Spain, and France, and in these countries produced his best work: compelling poems of beauty, style, and dignity, especially Cantos de vida y esperanza (1905). The perfection of form, exotic essences, and rich ornamentation of his earlier work give way in his most mature poems to self-probings and doubts, the anguish so characteristic of twentieth-century literature. But the hedonistic note, the quenchless appetite for life, dominating Azul and Prosas profanas (1896) never die out, and are magnificently present in El poema del otoño (1910). Darío has had a tremendous impact on Hispanic literature. He is one of the best examples of the poet who is true to his art as determined by his innermost impulses. His poetry has fertilized a whole generation of writers in Spanish America and in Spain, and even now his influence continues to be felt.
