Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Form and Value in Modern Poetry We are familiar with the consequences of/this frame of mind in religion, in politics, and in what passes for phi losophy. We should also be familiar with it in the chores of daily life: the life we get over withas so much blind action, but which 'yet needs its excuse, its quick, quibbled justifica tion. We are not familiar with it in, the works of rational imagination - at least not as a dominant value or as a source of strength; When we see it, we see it as weakness, as sub stitution, precisely as Work not done: as, at its best, melo drama, and at its worst, dead convention or the rehearsal of formula; and that is what we see in the great bulk of Hardy's verse. The very frame of mind that provided the pattern of his writing provided also, and at once, the terms of its general failure: leaving success, so far as his conscious devotions went, an accident of escape from the governing frame. Concern is in the end with the success; and will show it no accident; in the meantime with the considera tions that make it seem so.

Book Synopsis Modern Poetry in China by : Paul Manfredi
Download or read book Modern Poetry in China written by Paul Manfredi and published by . This book was released on 2014-01 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is in the Cambria Sinophone World Series (general editor: Victor H. Mair). *Includes rare color images. Chinese poetry, along with many other art forms in China, underwent a highly self-conscious transformation in the first decades of the twentieth century. Poetry, perhaps more than any other art form, did so under the heavy burden of a voluminous literary precedent, a precedent which was in its very format of patterned words inscribed on scrolls--a mark of the Chinese literati tradition. Turning away from this tradition seemed necessary in the context of a political, social, and cultural reform movement (which was designed to strengthen China in the face of increasing international pressure as well as domestic breakdown). At the same time, reforming a poetic tradition which had served as a principal touchstone of aesthetic accomplishment--from its role in Confucian canon as object of contemplation for correct action, to its function as a test of candidate's qualifications to govern through the civil service examination, to its function as national past-time in all manner of social gathering--was a major challenge. The result of such a predicament for poets throughout the twentieth century has been the compulsion to discover a poetic style which resonates with the modern world and yet is rooted in Chinese cultural experience. One way in which poets have been able to accomplish this is by relying on poetry's visuality, be it in the graphic properties of the writing system itself, the visual context of the presentation of the poetic texts, or the acute image details in the poems. The history of approximately one century of modern Chinese poetry production has been addressed broadly in scholarship, but such broad strokes tend to miss important dynamics which fall outside of general narratives. The importance of Chinese visual tradition to modern Chinese poets is a good case in point. Accordingly, this book addresses specific manifestations of the nexus connecting modernity and visuality in Chinese poetry. It begins with a discussion of May Fourth poetics as exemplified in the groundbreaking work of Li Jinfa, China's first "Symbolist" poet. From there the book traces notable developments of visuality in the new form or free verse writing (called Xinshi or "New Poetry") through mid-century modernist experiments in Taiwan (focusing on Ji Xian). From there the book then explores the avant-garde poetry of Luo Qing and Xia Yu before returning to mainland Chinese developments of Misty poets Yan Li and his contemporaries. The work concludes with a wide variety of poet-artists writing and exhibiting in the twenty-first century. Looking across this period of modern Chinese poetry's development, one is able to observe how important the visual-verbal dynamic has been to the innovation of poetic style and method. From the twenty-first century on, such multi-media expressions will likely continue to grow; this is a function of a Chinese aesthetic tradition pairing word and image and will continue to manifest in new and more inventive ways. This is an important book for Asian literary and art history studies and history collections
Book Synopsis Structure and Form of Contemporary Poetry. Analysis of four Poems by :
Download or read book Structure and Form of Contemporary Poetry. Analysis of four Poems written by and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2023-08-08 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, University of Innsbruck, language: English, abstract: This paper analyses the following poems: “(Un-)Certainties” by Regi Claire, Matthew Francis’ “Ladybird Summer”, Mary McCollum’s “The Boy with Dark Eyes” and “Fox” by Phoebe Stuckes, which all distinguish themselves due to their non-traditional form and structure, illustrates deviation but consistency in the use of form and structure to convey meanings as intended by authors. The form and structure of a poem affects its meaning as desired by the poet. Several elements of form and structure help poets manipulate words to ensure that their poems elicit the desired outcome. Some poems provide a narration, others express feelings, inform an audience, or tell folklore. Depending on this, poets use different elements of form and structure such as placement, lengths of lines, groupings of stanzas and lines, rhyme scheme, and rhythm to achieve the desired effects. The shape of the poem as well as opening and closing stanzas offer insight into traditional poems. While these conventional poems follow particular rules of poetry, such as rhymes or a set amount of syllables per line, more modern poetry disregards these rules and thereby introduces new methods of deriving meaning.
Book Synopsis Questions of Possibility: Contemporary Poetry and Poetic Form by : David Caplan
Download or read book Questions of Possibility: Contemporary Poetry and Poetic Form written by David Caplan and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2006-09-26 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questions of Possibility examines the particular forms that contemporary American poets favor and those they neglect. The poets' choices reveal both their ambitions and their limitations, the new possibilities they discover and the traditions they find unimaginable. By means of close attention to the sestina, ghazal, love sonnet, ballad, and heroic couplet, this study advances a new understanding of contemporary American poetry. Rather than pitting "closed" verse against "open" and "traditional" poetry against "experimental," Questions of Possibility explores how poets associated with different movements inspire and inform each other's work. Discussing a range of authors, from Charles Bernstein, Derek Walcott, and Marilyn Hacker to Agha Shahid Ali, David Caplan treats these poets as contemporaries who share the language, not as partisans assigned to rival camps. The most interesting contemporary poetry crosses the boundaries that literary criticism draws, synthesizing diverse influences and establishing surprising affinities. In a series of lively readings, Caplan charts the diverse characteristics and accomplishments of modern poetry, from the gay and lesbian love sonnet to the currently popular sestina.

Book Synopsis Why Write Poetry? by : Jeannine Johnson
Download or read book Why Write Poetry? written by Jeannine Johnson and published by Fairleigh Dickinson Univ Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poets have long been defending poetry in prose, and essays by Sidney, Shelley, and others are a familiar and important part of the Anglo-American literary tradition. This book identifies and examines a related genre - the verse defense of poetry - which shares the same impulse that has led to the composition of prose essays: namely, the desire to protect poetry from its detractors and to promote its value as a vital human endeavor. In the last century or so, this impulse to engage questions of poetry's value in poems has become increasingly widespread, and it has dominated the careers of at least five poets: H.D., Wallace Stevens, W. H. Auden, Adrienne Rich, and Geoffrey Hill. Though these poets espouse very different aesthetic principles, they, like many of their contemporaries, have repeatedly turned to apology in their verse. At first glance, this seems an odd gesture, given that the readers and writers of poetry are those who least need convincing of poetry's worthiness. But questioning poetry in verse is a form of lyric introspection that is productive and well-suited for a modern poet. characterized as one of indifference, defense helps these authors make a claim for poetry's cultural relevance, as well as for its private profit. Jeannine Johnson is a Preceptor in Expository Writing at Harvard University.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study addresses itself to the formal (in the topological sense) aspect of literature and literary words, and concludes that if logos (discursive langauge) and mythos (literary language) are indeed contiguous complementary forms, they are then essentially no different from those forms with which the painter or sculptor deals in the formation of his art object.

Book Synopsis Towards a Dialogic Anglistics by : Werner Delanoy
Download or read book Towards a Dialogic Anglistics written by Werner Delanoy and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2007 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When one looks at the history of English Studies there has been a noticeable proliferation of research interests since the 1970s. As a result of such development, attempts have been made to create a new basis for communication and cooperation inside Anglistics and across disciplines. Making a case for a Dialogic Anglistics is such an attempt. A Dialogic Anglistics is based on a normative concept of dialogue aiming for egalitarian forms of cooperation both inside, between and across disciplines leading to the redefinition of old and creation of manifold new directions for English Studies. In the nineteen articles presented in this volume dialogic encounters are encouraged both within and between different fields within Anglistics. Furthermore, dialogic links are created with colleagues from other academic disciplines.
