Book excerpt: "In homage to and in mourning for the street of booksellers, this book takes its title from Aeneas's words of sorrow uttered before a Carthaginian mural depicting the Trojan War. Tragedy must be brought home to us, but how can we relay the depths of loss--a very idea predicated on absence? This reliquary is part lachrymatory: it contains a book whose text of tears is designed to tear away at itself each time the book is displayed. Pleated into an accordion, it plays the elegy for its own effacement as, gradually, the cut-out letters catch on one another, pulling themselves up and off the page until they may fall away entirely. Not only is the book's texture designed to transform, its text does as well: page by page, one letter of the phrase changes at each turn." --artist's statement.

Book excerpt: "Created in response to the bombing of Al-Mutanabbi Street, Baghdad's street of booksellers, 'Sunt Lacrimae Rerum' mourns the loss of both books and bodies. It takes its title from Aeneas's words of sorrow uttered before a Carthaginian mural depicting the Trojan War. Tragedy must be brought home to us, but how can we relay the depths of loss -- a very idea predicated on absence? This reliquary is part lachrymatory: it contains a book whose text of tears is designed to tear away at itself each time the book is displayed. Pleated into an accordion, it plays the elegy for its own effacement as, gradually, the cut-out letters catch on one another, pulling themselves up and off the page until they may fall away entirely. Not only is the book's texture designed to transform, but its text does as well: page by page, one letter of the phrase changes at each turn. Although right now, 'these are the tears of things', over time we might enter a space 'where all the tears embraced'." -- Vamp & Tramp, Booksellers website.

Book Synopsis Fathers and Sons in Virgil's Aeneid by : M. Owen Lee
Download or read book Fathers and Sons in Virgil's Aeneid written by M. Owen Lee and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1982-06-30 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, M. Owen Lee provides a comprehensive narrative summary of Virgil's Aeneid and a personal account of his experience with the epic poem. Noting that Virgil is the writer most Latinists read early, live with, and often come to love late, Lee expresses a clear devotion to the poet's work and relates how it has touched him throughout his life. While most criticism of the Aeneid makes a distinction between what critics say and what an individual may respond to, Lee takes a unique approach by analyzing the epic story from his own point of view. He not only explores the extensive Virgilian tradition, but also looks at the work of other poets, as well as philosophers, artists, composers, and filmmakers in order to better understand the Aeneid. Lee concludes that Virgil's poem, with its unavailing fathers and dutiful sons, its ineffably sad view of a failed humanity and a flawed universe, still touches hearts and, in ways Virgil could not have foreseen, still affects human lives.

Book Synopsis The Inky Digit of Defiance by : Tony Harrison
Download or read book The Inky Digit of Defiance written by Tony Harrison and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2017-05-02 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this richly varied selection of Tony Harrison's provocative prose of the last fifty years, the great poet of page, stage and screen presents a lifetime's thinking about art and politics, creativity and mortality. In so doing, he takes us on an extraordinary journey through languages and across continents and millennia, from his Nigerian Lysistrata to the British Raj of his version of Racine's Phèdre, to post-Communist Europe for the film Prometheus to a one-off performance of The Kaisers of Carnuntum at the Roman amphitheatre in Austria on the Danube, to the peace camp at Greenham Common, and from a Leeds street bonfire celebrating the defeat of Japan by the new atomic bomb to wines made from the vines on volcanoes.A collection of work filled with passion and humour that educates as it dazzles.'More than Yeats, Eliot or Auden, more than anyone writing in English this century, and perhaps the two before that as well, Harrison has demonstrated that verse drama remains a living artistic possibility.' Observer
