Download or read book Imaginary Sonnets written by Daniel Galef and published by Able Muse Press. This book was released on 2023-07-14 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Daniel Galef’s Imaginary Sonnets, a cast of people and objects from mythology, history, the news, and the quotidian parades through a variety of imaginative scenarios. In dialogues, dramatic monologues, satires, lamentations, eulogies, and execrations, the sonnets adopt perspectives ranging from the familiar to the novel to the twisty and surprising. Characters include not only widely known figures such as Cassandra, Pandora, St. Augustine, Byron, and Doris Day, but also obscure ones such as Henrique of Melacca, Emmett Till’s father, John Taurek, and—more startling—a salmon, a snowflake, and a pair of parallel lines. Imaginary Sonnets entertains and entrances with every turn of the page. PRAISE FOR IMAGINARY SONNETS: I love sonnet sequences, and Daniel Galef has written a rollicking collection that is alive with wit, intelligence, and wild imagination, as in the poem of unrequited love between two parallel lines. If you want to know what Cézanne has to say, not to mention Cassandra, Alcibiades, and “Parmenides to Doris Day,” then dig into this cornucopia of crazy, formal fun. — Barbara Hamby, author of Holoholo Daniel Galef’s sonnet cycle is a rare feat of empathy, wit, style, and (as the title hints) imagination. I’m thankful to have this book, in which the messy overlaps of life are somehow illuminated in work of astonishing, clear-eyed discipline. — Jack Pendarvis, author of Movie Stars Daniel Galef’s debut collection, Imaginary Sonnets, demonstrates his mastery of the form as well as his ability to reinvigorate it with wit and experimentation. These fourteen-line biographies and tales open up a world, largely drawn from literature, that your history books ignored and that you will enjoy. — A. M. Juster, author of Wonder and Wrath The sonnet is one nifty little container, isn’t it! Each of these poems contains its own tiny library—of books, sure, but life experiences, history . . . okay, everything, from Pandora (she of the box full of imps) to Casey (he of the Mudville Nine) and beyond. There’s even a taco talking to a chalupa, and I’m not making that up. Nobody could make that up except Daniel Galef. — David Kirby, author of Help Me, Information ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Daniel Galef was born and raised in Oxford, Mississippi, where he spent his afternoons on the veranda of Square Books. After studying philosophy and classics at McGill University in Montreal, he received his MFA from the fiction program at Florida State University in Tallahassee. His poetry covers a diverse range of styles and genres, including light verse (Light Quarterly, the Saturday Evening Post, the Washington Post Style Invitational), children’s literature (Spider, the Caterpillar, School Magazine), and serious formal poetry (Able Muse, Atlanta Review, the Lyric). Besides poems, he also writes fiction (Indiana Review, Juked, the Best Small Fictions anthology), nonfiction (Word Ways, Working Classicists, the Journal of Compressed Creative Arts), humor and satire (American Bystander, NationalLampoon.com, the Journal of Irreproducible Results), and plays (Players’ Theatre Montréal, Théâtre MainLine Theatre). In 2022 he placed second in the New Yorker cartoon caption contest. This is his first book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Self and the Sonnet is an interdisciplinary study which considers the sonnet, a near eight hundred year old form, and looks at the historical meanderings and the popularity of the form among cultures that are far removed from the location of its origin in Italy. The book tracks the notion of the self from its Platonic beginnings to the Postmodern, using insights from Charles Taylor, Brian Morris and Calvin O. Schrag so as to work out a model of the self. Jan Patočka’s phenomenological notions of the self and Chaos Theory are important cohesive elements in the composition of this model. A limit point in Mathematics is a point that is not in the set around which all the points cluster. The book looks at the self from the limit points of the body, mind, world and language. It analyzes sonnets which predominantly show a tendency to one of these limit points. However, it keeps in mind the other limit points as possibilities of a comprehensive analysis. The motivation for this body of research comes primarily from the notion of the sonnet being a form that initially exists along with the epic as canonical writers of literary epics also write sonnets. The historic and narrative moment of self in sonnet form calls for a questioning of both the self and the sonnet. The book tries to address the questions: ‘What changes in the notion of self prompt the origin and persistence of the sonnet across cultures?’ and ‘Why and how is this form compatible with a self that is postmodern and global?’ The Anglo-American sonnet, for the most, is addressed but cultures and their attendant forms are also addressed when considering the sonnet. The Arabic zajal, the Persian ghazal, the Chinese sonnet and the Korean Sijo-sonnet are forms that are touched upon along with the Indian postcolonial versions like the forms of the sonnet in Modern Indian Languages such as Bangla, Gujarati and Marathi.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shakespeare’s sonnets are the best samples of “high poetry”. Literature historians have been arguing about them for several centuries, trying to solve the secret of mysterious “dark lady” and poet’s young friend to whom he devoted the works. A lot of science and fictional books are written and some films are shot about the possible story how he had created his sonnets. But ordinary readers just enjoy the beauty of Shakespeare’s language and passion of his inspiration that turned this collection of sonnets into the most genius poetry cycle in the history of world literature. Illustrated by Olga Moss.

This book was released on 2023-08-12 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sonnets of Michael Angelo Buonarroti and Tommaso Campanella presents a lyrical journey through the minds of two of Italys most profound Renaissance figures. This anthology encompasses a variety of themes from the transient nature of beauty to the immutable forces of love and faith, showcasing the remarkable diversity and depth of the Renaissance literary style. Each piece stands as a testament to the eruditious blend of philosophy, art, and spirituality that marked this era. The collection invites readers to experience the richness of its poetic tapestry, integrating vivid imagery with profound introspection in a way that only this unique pairing of artists and thinkers could achieve. The contributing poets, Buonarroti and Campanella, bring to this anthology a fusion of backgrounds steeped in artistic mastery and radical philosophical inquiry, respectively. Both men navigated the turbulent waters of Renaissance thought, contributing significantly to the realms of literature, art, and political theology. This anthology does not merely present their work side by side but interweaves their voices, creating a dialogue that transcends the individual contributions and speaks to the universal concerns of human existence and creativity. This collection is essential for anyone drawn to the intricacies of Renaissance thought and the enduring power of poetic expression. It serves not only as a testament to the individual genius of Buonarroti and Campanella but as a vibrant conversation between their distinct yet harmonious perspectives. Readers seeking to immerse themselves in the depths of Renaissance creativity and philosophical discourse will find in this anthology a rare and enlightening compilation that bridges time and human sentiment, offering a unique lens through which to explore this pivotal era in history.

THE WRECK OF HEAVEN I I Had a vision: naught for miles and miles But shattered columns, shattered walls of gold, -And precious stones that from their place had roll'd, And lay in heaps, with litter'd golden tiles; While, here and there, amid the ruined piles Of gold and sardius, and their sparkling mould, Wild tufts of amaranth had taken hold, Scenting the golden desert like sweet isles. And not one soul, and not one step nor sound, Until there started up a haggard head Out of the gold, from somewhere underground. Wildly he eyed me and the wreck all round: "Who'rt thou?" quoth I. He shrilled a laugh and said: "The last of souls. I haunt this dazzling mound." n AY, ay, the gates of pearl are crumbling fast; The walls of beryl topple stone by stone; The throngs of souls in white and gold are gone; The jasper pillars lie where they were cast; The roofless halls of gold are dumb and vast; The courts of jacinth are for ever lone; Through shattered chrysolite the blind winds moan; And topaz moulders into earth at last. And earth is the reality: its hue Is brown and sad; its face is hard to till; Upon man's brow the sweat must hang like dew. But grain takes root, in valley, plain and hill, Tho' never Heaven's amaranth here grew. And grain breeds grain, and more and more grain still. V MISCELLANEO US WHAT THE SONNET IS Fourteen small broidered berries on the hem Of Circe's mantle, each of magic gold; Fourteen of lone Calypso's tears that roll'd Into the sea, for pearls to come of them; Fourteen clear signs of omen in the gem With which Medea human fate foretold; Fourteen small drops, which Faustus, growing old, Craved of the Fiend, to water Life's dry stem. It is the pure white diamond Dante brought To Beatrice; the sapphire Laura wore When...
