Book Synopsis The Gazer's Spirit by : John Hollander
Download or read book The Gazer's Spirit written by John Hollander and published by Taylor & Francis US. This book was released on 1995-11-15 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a gallery of words and images that celebrates the sister arts of poetry and painting. John Hollander, the eminent poet and critic, has selected more than fifty works of painting, print, drawing, photography, and sculpture, from antiquity to the present, and paired them with poems that have addressed the images in their verses. The result is an illuminating and ingeniously organized chronicle of words and images in conversation, as well as a powerful introduction to how, across Western culture, great writers have been inspired by artists' images. Hollander opens the book with an extended critical introduction to the ecphrastic tradition, and closes it with one of his own poems about Monet's La route de ferme St-Simeon, a moving dialogue between seeing and saying, silence and representation. Lavishly illustrated, this book is a powerful witness to the dynamic relations between the visual and verbal that are at the heart of Western culture.

Book Synopsis The Autistic Alice by : Joanne Limburg
Download or read book The Autistic Alice written by Joanne Limburg and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are two acts of recovery in this book - one of a lost brother, and another of a lost self. Joanne Limburg commemorates both in her third collection, The Autistic Alice. In its title-sequence she uses Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass to explore her own experiences as a girl and young woman. Growing up with undiagnosed Asperger's, she often identified with Alice, a logical and curious child adrift in an arbitrary world. Collaging lines and phrases drawn from the two Alice books, she creates a disturbingly effective language to express the nature, discomfort and alienation of autistic experiences. In her neurodiverse verse, a text can become a rabbit-hole to another world, or a mirror. The poems that make up the book's opening sequence, The Oxygen Man, originally published as a pamphlet, were written in response to the death of Limburg's younger brother, a brilliant chemist who took his own life in 2008. They follow her as she visits the mid-Western town where he lived, worked and died; range back over their shared childhood; and look ahead as she tries to work out what it means to be the one who stays behind.

Download or read book Transistor written by Esteban Oloarte and published by Broadstone Books. This book was released on 2021-07-15 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Drama. The transistor, a tiny device capable of amplification and control, is the foundation of our digital world. Now comes "Transistor, who is sage, / and who is never seen despite the live feed," to conduct us on a breathtaking journey through that world, in this audacious first full-length collection from Esteban Oloarte. "Transistor broadcasts traffic reports, / powers of suggestion, chances of allegory, / and everyone exits in headsets as exiles." To read this book is to join that parade of exiles, to hitch a ride on an electron, flashing through the circuitry of modern life. Written in the shape of a bible, it is part prophesy, part wisdom literature, part jeremiad, with a bit of Song of Solomon eroticism for good measure, a secular sacred and profane text of social and cultural criticism. A set of "footnotes" run throughout the book like a plainsong chant, offering contrapuntal perspective from philosophers, academics, artists, and critics. More than anything, this is a celebration of the pure incantatory power of words, from a poet mad-drunk on language, a modern-day Delphic oracle. This is new, this is news, this is poetry like you haven't read before, and won't soon forget.
