Book Synopsis Reading the Cantos (Routledge Revivals) by : Noel Stock
Download or read book Reading the Cantos (Routledge Revivals) written by Noel Stock and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-11-30 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1967, this is a study which tackles the central problem of meaning, within Ezra Pound's The Cantos. It deals with the question of important critical issues, as well as of interpretation and understanding. Students of modern poetry will derive great benefit from this vigorous and lucid analysis of Pound's masterpiece. Noel Stock's finding is radical: that The Cantos is not a really a poem at all, but rather notes towards a poem. It is a collection of fragments of varying quality - some of extraordinary power and beauty - but in no sense formed into a work of art.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Book Synopsis Encyclopedia of Cosmology (Routledge Revivals) by : Norriss S. Hetherington
Download or read book Encyclopedia of Cosmology (Routledge Revivals) written by Norriss S. Hetherington and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 709 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Encyclopedia of Cosmology, first published in 1993, recounts the history, philosophical assumptions, methodological ambiguities, and human struggles that have influenced the various responses to the basic questions of cosmology through the ages, as well as referencing important scientific theories. Just as the recognition of social conventions in other cultures can lead to a more productive perspective on our own behaviour, so too a study of the cosmologies of other times and places can enable us recognise elements of our own cosmology that might otherwise pass as inevitable developments. Apart from modern natural science, therefore, this volume incorporates brief treatments of Native American, Cave-Dweller, Chinese, Egyptian, Islamic, Megalithic, Mesopotamian, Greek, Medieval and Copernican cosmology, leading to an appreciation of cosmology as an intellectual creation, not merely a collection of facts. It is a valuable reference tool for any student or academic with an interest in the history of science and cosmology specifically.
Book Synopsis The Fictional Encyclopaedia (Routledge Revivals) by : Hilary Clark
Download or read book The Fictional Encyclopaedia (Routledge Revivals) written by Hilary Clark and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-07-18 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1990, this work offers an analysis of the phenomenon of encyclopaedism in literature. Hilary Clark develops the theory of an encyclopaedic form in the interests of making clear distinctions between the realist narrative form and that of the encyclopaedic-parodic or fictional encyclopaedia. She makes clear the special links that non-realist, parodic fictions have with the forms of essay, Menippean satire and epic, and indeed with the encyclopaedia itself. The study pays particular attention to the way in which literary encyclopaedism has flourished in the twentieth century, with special reference to the works of James Joyce, Ezra Pound and Philippe Sollers.

Book Synopsis Roses from the Steel Dust by : Walter Baumann
Download or read book Roses from the Steel Dust written by Walter Baumann and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roses from the Steel Dust collects Walter Baumann's essays on Pound published from the 1960s to the present, along with several previously unpublished essays. It extends and supplements The Rose in the Steel Dust, a major classic of Pound studies first published in 1967 in Europe. Reviewing The Rose in the Steel Dust in the Journal of Modern Literature, Edwin Fussell said that Baumann "can grasp not only Pound's thematic meanings, but he can also shed light on Pound's techniques of allusion, juxtaposition, fusion, ellipsis, timing, etc. ... He can also relate the word-by-word, line-by-line explication of the single passage to the rest of the Cantos."
Book Synopsis Revival: A History of Spanish Literature (1930) by : Ernest Merimee
Download or read book Revival: A History of Spanish Literature (1930) written by Ernest Merimee and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 668 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present English version, authorized by the publishers and heirs of M. Merimee, is based on the third French Edition. New material of two sorts has been added, however. First, the translator has been allowed to utlize an annotated, interleaved copy of the Precis, 1922, in which the author, and after his death his son Henri, himself a distinguished Hispanist, had set down material for the next revision. This accounts for many inserted names and phrases, and some paragraphs. Second, the translator has rewritten and added with some freedom.
Book Synopsis Ezra Pound and the Career of Modern Criticism by : Michael Coyle
Download or read book Ezra Pound and the Career of Modern Criticism written by Michael Coyle and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2018 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forty-five years after his death, and more than seventy years after his indictment for treason, Ezra Pound remains a deeply controversial figure. Today it is hard to imagine a poet sparking national debate, but Pound did just that. His receipt in 1949 of the first-ever Bollingen Award for Poetry started a hue and cry that spread to every US periodical that made even a pretense of following "cultural" issues: even Time weighed in. It took two years for things to simmer down, and when they finally did, literary study looked profoundly different. Everyone engaged in the study of poetry today, professors and students alike, works in an environment shaped by that national crisis of conscience. The present book considers this untold story, and investigates not just what critics have had to say about Pound but also why they have asked the questions they have asked. It is routine for reception histories to distinguish between professional studies and more popular responses; this book encourages us to consider why we make that distinction and what the costs of doing so might be. Unprofessional responses to Pound have often been ideologically and politically embarrassing for Pound scholars, who have in response policed the distinction between professional and popular readings with extraordinary vigilance. As a result, the history of Pound's reception unfolds as a kind of drama - perhaps the last ongoing theater for McCarthyite cultural-political anxieties. Michael Coyle is Professor of English at Colgate University and has published widely on Pound. Roxana Preda is Leverhulme Fellow in American Literature at the University of Edinburgh and President of the Ezra Pound Society.
