He was twenty-two years of age when, March, 1831, he left West Point. Before leaving the Academy he had secured subscriptions from his fellow-cadets for a volume of his poetry. This, the third volume to be issued, was a revision of his earlier volumes, was entitled Poems, and was dedicated to his fellow-students Of West Point.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The First Evanstonians: A Paper Read Before the Evanston Historical Society, February 7th, 1916 On the eastern boundary the winds and waves of Old Lake Michigan-then known as the Lake of the Illinois, blew and rolled as in these modern days. The calm summer sea and the glory of the sunrise, meaning then as much to the Red Man as these days to the White, and probably sometimes more, for a calm sea afforded navigation with a canoe and the Sun was the emblem of the Great Spirit. Sand dunes and scrub oak groves lined the shores from the Chicago Creek to the site of modern Davis Street in Evanston, and from there northward to Little Fort, now Waukegan, were the high bluffs ever changing their align ment with the march of time and the roar of the waves, and there was the great forest as in recent days, presenting a shore line of such beauty and interest, especially in autumn, as to cause repeated comment and description by the early writers. From Little Fort to the Land of the Wisconsins, again sand dunes and the low country with its adjacent bluffs and ravines as one sees it today; rich then as now, as experts tell us, in a greater variety of trees. Wild flowers and shrubs than any other one locality of the known world. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book How Poems Think written by Reginald Gibbons and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-09-23 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To write or read a poem is often to think in distinctively poetic ways—guided by metaphors, sound, rhythms, associative movement, and more. Poetry’s stance toward language creates a particular intelligence of thought and feeling, a compressed articulation that expands inner experience, imagining with words what cannot always be imagined without them. Through translation, poetry has diversified poetic traditions, and some of poetry’s ways of thinking begin in the ancient world and remain potent even now. In How Poems Think, Reginald Gibbons presents a rich gallery of poetic inventiveness and continuity drawn from a wide range of poets—Sappho, Pindar, Shakespeare, Keats, William Carlos Williams, Marina Tsvetaeva, Gwendolyn Brooks, and many others. Gibbons explores poetic temperament, rhyme, metonymy, etymology, and other elements of poetry as modes of thinking and feeling. In celebration and homage, Gibbons attunes us to the possibilities of poetic thinking.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este estudio analiza la poética de oposición de Melville y se centra en aspectos locales, temáticos, retóricos y técnicos de los poemas del autor. La tensa relación de Melville con su país ensayada en sus novelas se condensa en la poesía que se analiza aquí. Como poeta, Melville es, por increíble que parezca, una voz que clama en tierra salvaje, con la extensa tradición de los clásicos occidentales y de la Biblia que se repiten en estos poemas. Las obras analizadas en este libro han sido seleccionadas de las tres colecciones de poesía publicadas durante la vida de Melville: Battle-Pieces and Aspects of the War, John Marr and Other Sailors with Some Sea-Pieces y Timoleon Etc. La disensión que emana de este corpus poético subraya el inconformismo de Melville con las expectativas ortodoxas de la América de finales del siglo XIX.

Download or read book Thornton Wilder, Classical Reception, and American Literature written by Stephen J. Rojcewicz, Jr. and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-25 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book delineates how Thornton Wilder (1897–1975), a learned playwright and novelist, embeds himself within the classical tradition, integrating Greek and Roman motifs with a wide range of sources to produce heart-breaking masterpieces such as Our Town and comedy sensations such as Dolly Levi. Through this study of archival sources and close reading, readers will understand Wilder’s avant-garde staging and innovative time sequences not as a break with the past, but as a response to the classics. The author traces the genesis of unforgettable characters like Dolly Levi in The Matchmaker, Emily Webb in Our Town, and George Antrobus in The Skin of Our Teeth. Vergil’s expression, "Here are the tears of the world, and human matters touch the heart" haunts Wilder’s oeuvre. Understanding Vergil’s phrase as "tears for the beauty of the world," Wilder utilizes scenes depicting the beauty of the world and the sorrow when individuals recognize this too late. Wilder exhorts us to observe lovingly, alert to the wonder of the everyday. This work will appeal to actors and directors, professors and students in classics and in American literature, those fascinated by modern drama and performance studies, and non-specialists, theatre-goers, and readers in the general public.

Download or read book Writing Not Writing written by Tom Fisher and published by University of Iowa Press. This book was released on 2017-07-01 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The poet George Oppen comments, “There are situations which cannot honorably [be] met by art, and surely no one need fiddle precisely at the moment that the house next door is burning.” To write poetry under such circumstances, he continues, “would be a treason to one’s neighbor.” Committing himself, then, to more direct and conventional forms of response and responsibility, Oppen leaves poetry behind for twenty-five years. The disasters of the 1930s, for Oppen, put poetry into a fundamental question that could not be resolved or overcome. Yet if crisis is continual, then poetry is always turning away from the neighbor in need, always an irresponsible response in a world persistently falling apart. Writing Not Writing both confirms this question into which crisis puts poetry and explores alternative modes of “response” and “responsibility” that poetry makes possible. Reading the silences of Oppen, Carl Rakosi, and Bob Kaufman, the renunciation of Laura Riding, and other more contemporary instances of poetic abnegation, Tom Fisher explores silence, refusal, and disavowal as political and ethical modes of response in a time of continuous crisis. Through a turn away from writing, these poets offer strategies of refusal and departure that leave anagrammatical hollows behind, activating the negational capacities of writing and aesthetics to disrupt the empire of sense, speech, and agency. Fisher’s work is both an engaging and detailed analysis of four individual poets who left poetry behind and a theoretically provocative exploration of the political and ethical possibilities of silence, not-doing, and disavowal. In lucid but nuanced terms, Fisher makes the case that, from at least modernism forward, poetry is marked by refusals of speech and sense in order to open possibilities of response outside conventional forms of responsibility.
