Book Synopsis Lyric Pedagogy and Marxist-Feminism by : Samuel Solomon
Download or read book Lyric Pedagogy and Marxist-Feminism written by Samuel Solomon and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-02-07 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the political potential of poetry in the contemporary era? Exploring an often overlooked history of Marxist-Feminist poetics in post-war Britain – including such poets as Denise Riley, Veronica Forrest-Thomson, Wendy Mulford and Nat Raha – this book confronts this central question to debates about the value of humanities education today. Lyric Pedagogy and Marxist-Feminism demonstrates how ideas of social reproduction have been central both to the forms of post-1945 British poetry and the educational institutions where poetry is overwhelmingly encountered and produced. Combining new archival research with close readings of key poets of the period, the book charts the interrelated crises both of poetry itself and literary education more widely. Paradoxically, the very marginalisation of poetry in contemporary culture serves to offer the form new opportunities as an agent of social transformation.
Download or read book Making Trouble written by Lynne Segal and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2017-07-25 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens when angry young rebels become wary older women, raging in a leaner, meaner time: a time which exalts only the “new,” when the ruling orthodoxy daily disparages everything associated with the “old”? Delving into her own life and those who left their mark on it, Lynne Segal journeys through time to consider her generation of female dreamers, the experiences that formed them, what they have left to the world, and how they are remembered in a period when pessimism pervades public life. Searching for answers, she studies her family history, sexual awakening, and ethnicity, as well as the peculiarities of the time and place that shaped her political journey, with all its urgency, significance, pleasures and absurdities.

Book Synopsis Women's Experimental Poetry in Britain 1970-2010 by : David Kennedy
Download or read book Women's Experimental Poetry in Britain 1970-2010 written by David Kennedy and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women's Experimental Poetry in Britain 1970-2010 examines a critically neglected but significant body of contemporary writing, placing it within wider social and political contexts. Ranging from Geraldine Monk's ventriloquizing of the Pendle witches to Denise Riley's fiercely self-critical lyric poems—from the multi-media experiments of Maggie O'Sullivan to the globally aware, politicized sequences of Andrea Brady and Jennifer Cooke—it offers a needed theoretical look at women's experimental poetry in Britain over the past forty years, drawing on the likes of Julia Kristeva and others to show how the female poetic voice has constantly negotiated with dominant systems of representation.

Book Synopsis Rewriting English by : Janet Batsleer
Download or read book Rewriting English written by Janet Batsleer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-08 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 2002. It is easy to see that we are living in a time of rapid and radical social change. It is much less easy to grasp the fact that such change will inevitably affect the nature of those disciplines that both reflect our society and help to shape it. Yet this is nowhere more apparent than in the central field of what may, in general terms, be called literary studies. ‘New Accents’ is intended as a positive response to the initiative offered by such a situation. Each volume in the series will seek to encourage rather than resist the process of change. To stretch rather than reinforce the boundaries that currently define literature and its academic study.
