Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Genius and Nelson: And Other Poems These verses were written, firstly, with a view to nursing my imagination which, I believe, got a very good chance to develop, not being hampered with a Weighty scholastic education secondly, with a view to entertaining myself when I am an old man (if I ever live to be old), with a want of friends, which things I am making poor headway at securing thirdly, for the pleasure of scribbling on some letter paper which I have borrowed and never expect to have the p ice to return. But in late years, he lieving that all men possess like passions, cares and griefs and the same thoughts, if these thoughts would force themselves far enough to leave their stamp upon the memory, I have endeavored to expose my mind Without any fear of scorn. I have lately completed one score of years of the allotted three; therefore I would fain offer an apology for thrusting these verses on the unwary public, and it shall be this, that out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. Thanking my few cherished friends for the encouragement they have given me, and hoping, should I discover to my neigh bors in these few unfinished lines a want of genius and they in turn extinguish me immediately, that the Ruling Powers will allow me to while away eternity in admiring the banks of the beautiful Beaver.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Powers of Genius: A Poem, in Three Parts Didactic poetry is moral truth clothed in the garments of Fiction. Its design more than that of any other species of poetry is to instruct, to guide the arts, and to trace the laws of propriety and reason. Like prosaical compositions it delivers the rules and the lessons of knowledge, while it borrows the harmony and images of measured numbers. It has been generally, considered as that species of poetry, in which it is most difficult to excel. If it do not inculcate doctrines and opinions which are strictly, just and which will be generally received, it will be condemned, and unless it present those in a manner pleasing and captivating it will fail in its design of instruction.

This book was released on 2018-07-06 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Minstrel; or the Progress of Genius with some other poems By James Beattie I. Ah! who can tell how hard it is to climbThe steep, where Fame's proud temple shines afar!Ah! who can tell how many a soul sublimeHas felt the influence of malignant star, And waged with Fortune an eternal war!Checked by the scoff of Pride, by Envy's frown, And Poverty's unconquerable bar, In life's low vale remote has pined alone, Then dropt into the grave, unpitied and unknown! II. And yet, the languor of inglorious daysNot equally oppressive is to all.Him, who ne'er listened to the voice of praise, The silence of neglect can ne'er appal.There are, who, deaf to mad Ambition's call, Would shrink to hear th' obstreperous trump of Fame;Supremely blest, if to their portion fallHealth, competence, and peace. Nor higher aimHad He, whose simple tale these artless lines proclaim. III. This sapient age disclaims all classic lore;Else I should here, in cunning phrase, display, How forth The Minstrel fared in days of yore, Right glad of heart, though homely in array;His waving locks and beard all hoary grey: And, from his bending shoulder, decent hungHis harp, the sole companion of his way, Which to the whistling wind responsive rung: And ever as he went some merry lay he sung. IV. Fret not yourselves, ye silken sons of pride, That a poor Wanderer should inspire my strain.The Muses fortune's fickle smile deride, Nor ever bow the knee in Mammon's fane;For their delights are with the village-train, Whom Nature's laws engage, and Nature's charms: They hate the sensual, and scorn the vain;The parasite their influence never warms, Nor him whose sordid soul the love of wealth alarms.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Minstrel, or the Progress of Genius: In Two Books; With Some Other Poems The design was, to trace the progress of al'oetical Genius, born in a rude age, from the first dawning of fancy and reason, till that period at which he may be supposed capable of appearing in the world as A min sirel, that is, as an itinerant Poet and Musician; a character which, according to the notions of our forefathers, was not only respectable, but sacred. I have endeavoured to imitate spenser in the mea sure of his verse, and in the harmony, simplicity, and variety, of his composition. Antique expressions I have avoided; admitting, however, some old words, where they seemed to suit the subject: but I hope none will be found that are now obsolete, or in any degree not intelligible to a reader of English poetry.

Download or read book Unoriginal Genius written by Marjorie Perloff and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-12 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marjorie Perloff here explores this intriguing development in contemporary poetry: the embrace of "unoriginal" writing. Paradoxically, she argues, such citational and often constraint-based poetry is more accessible and, in a sense, "personal" than was the hermetic poetry of the 1980's and 90's. --

Download or read book Partial Genius written by Mary Biddinger and published by . This book was released on 2019-08-15 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. "I love this book so much. A work of meticulous craft and profound originality, Mary Biddinger's newest collection of prose poems is one of the best books I've read on our historical moment and the decades that led to it. PARTIAL GENIUS reads like a dossier of the psychological landscape of late capitalist America and the end of empire. In the tradition of John Ashbery, but wholly original in her own vision and voice, Biddinger draws from a deep well of poetic intellect and wit to illuminate the existential threats and imaginative possibilities of our collective self-destruction. In 'The Subject Pool' the speaker watches a man tattoo AU COURANT around her thigh. The tattoo artist has no idea. Every poem is chock-full of revelations in every detail. Reading this book felt like sitting by the fire in some secret location with a double agent, smoking her pipe telling tales of all that went down right in front of our faces, while we were all driven to distraction by outrage. To paraphrase Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth, She's got it all in this book."--Heather Derr-Smith "'How many days since you began your last panic...?' Mary Biddinger asks in her latest collection. Quirky, imaginative, and wry in tone, PARTIAL GENIUS is a book that thwarts expectation, turns convention on its head, surprises and delights. Within a narrative scaffolded like a twisting stairway or maze-like hall, these fascinating poems feature high school reunions, job interviews, broken dioramas, and birth control pills; they showcase apologies, parlor games, and consolation prizes, intricacies, illusions, and tricks. Comfort is found in a bar of bathroom soap. An assistant manager wonders why a blazer is named for fire. A radio is implanted in the chest as a companion to the heart. Spheres of uncertainty juxtaposed against landscapes of failure create the book's complex beauty and dangerous edge, as Biddinger claims, 'The best part of figure skating was getting cut.' PARTIAL GENIUS comes to us as both a study of despair and a gleaming beacon of hope."--Jennifer Militello

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Moments of Genius These studies might be called the synthetic side of the work of which the Authors previous book, Human Documents, represents rather the analytical aspect. A great representative of some form of human faculty or accomplishment is taken at a critical moment of his career, the personality is vividly stamped as in a cameo, in the fore-part of the study; then, as in a vista, is shown the vision of his past, and (as following on the Moment of Genius) the adumbration of the future, all expressed in the feelings of the subject and the aspirations of his soul. The Author considers various forms of human greatness in turn, even the glory of physical perfection, choosing, for the sake of similarities or contrasts, two representatives of each.
