Book Synopsis Som Certaine Sonets, Revised and Enlarged Edition by : Michael R. Collings
Download or read book Som Certaine Sonets, Revised and Enlarged Edition written by Michael R. Collings and published by Wildside Press LLC. This book was released on 2011-02-01 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sonnets are among the most widely recognized of poetic forms, dating back almost a thousand years. In this book, Michael R. Collings blends past tradition with contemporary experimentation, public commentary with private meditation, lyric compression with epic breadth, rigid structure with "nuclear-fused sonnets, free radicals, one electron away from exploding." As Robert Reginald says: "Once again Collings shows that 'traditional' does not have to mean 'staid, ' and that all things are possible with imaginative word-play of the highest order. Great fun, great reading, GREAT poetry "

Download or read book Death Be Not Proud written by David Marno and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2016-12-21 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The seventeenth-century French philosopher Nicolas Malebranche thought that philosophy could learn a valuable lesson from prayer, which teaches us how to attend, wait, and be open for what might happen next. Death Be Not Proud explores the precedents of Malebranche’s advice by reading John Donne’s poetic prayers in the context of what David Marno calls the “art of holy attention.” If, in Malebranche’s view, attention is a hidden bond between religion and philosophy, devotional poetry is the area where this bond becomes visible. Marno shows that in works like “Death be not proud,” Donne’s most triumphant poem about the resurrection, the goal is to allow the poem’s speaker to experience a given doctrine as his own thought, as an idea occurring to him. But while the thought must feel like an unexpected event for the speaker, the poem itself is a careful preparation for it. And the key to this preparation is attention, the only state in which the speaker can perceive the doctrine as a cognitive gift. Along the way, Marno illuminates why attention is required in Christian devotion in the first place and uncovers a tradition of battling distraction that spans from ascetic thinkers and Church Fathers to Catholic spiritual exercises and Protestant prayer manuals.
Book Synopsis Toward an Understanding of Language by : Peter Howard Fries
Download or read book Toward an Understanding of Language written by Peter Howard Fries and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 1985 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles C. Fries (1887-1967) was a major figure in American linguistics and language education during the first half of the 20th century. Theoretical innovation and practical implementation were important threads that ran throughout his work. Fries believed that the attempt to deal with practical problems was a vital part of developing linguistic theory. He spent most of his effort exploring grammar as a tool for communicating meaning. Charles C. Fries was quite influential in the development of linguistics in the United States, and yet in some ways remained outside of the mainstream of the linguistics he helped to develop. The contributors to this volume were asked to present and evaluate some aspect of Fries' work and to show how similar ideas are being used today.

Book Synopsis Donne and the Politics of Conscience in Early Modern England by : Meg Lota Brown
Download or read book Donne and the Politics of Conscience in Early Modern England written by Meg Lota Brown and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11-22 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Donne and the Politics of Conscience in Early Modern England examines the responses of John Donne and his contemporaries to post-Reformation debate about authority and interpretation. It argues that the legal and epistemological principles, as well as the narrative practices, of casuistry provided an important resource for those caught in the welter of conflicting laws and religions. The first two chapters explore the political, historical, and theological contexts of casuistry, locating Donne in debates about the limits of reason and the relativity of law and ethics. Chapter three addresses Donne's concern with problems of moral decision and action, of knowledge and definition, in five of his prose works. Chapter four examines ways in which his verse assimilates and wittily subverts casuists' responses to epistemological and linguistic uncertainty. The study is particularly useful for literary critics, intellectual historians, and theologians.
