Download or read book Reading the Ground written by Brian John and published by CUA Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this comprehensive study of Thomas Kinsella's poetry, Brian John explores the poet's development within both the Irish and the English contexts and defines the nature of his poetic achievement. He also offers a new reading of Kinsella's evolving relationship to one of his major literary forebears, W. B. Yeats. What becomes clear is the formidable accomplishment of a poet, now writing at the height of his powers, whose substantial body of work warrants comparison with the grand masters of twentieth-century literature in English - with Yeats, Joyce, and Beckett.

Download or read book "The Given Note" written by Seán Crosson and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2021-02-03 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The oldest records indicate that the performance of poetry in Gaelic Ireland was normally accompanied by music, providing a point of continuity with past tradition while bolstering a sense of community in the present. Music would also offer, particularly for poets writing in English from the eighteenth century onwards, a perceived authenticity, a connection with an older tradition perceived as being untarnished by linguistic and cultural division. While providing an innovative analysis of theoretical work in music and literary studies, this book examines how traditional Irish music, including the related song tradition (primarily in Irish), has influenced, and is apparent in, the work of Irish poets. While looking generally at where this influence is evident historically and in contemporary Irish poetry, this work focuses primarily on the work of six poets, three who write in English and three who write primarily in the Irish language: Thomas Kinsella, Seamus Heaney, Ciaran Carson, Gearóid Mac Lochlainn, Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill and Cathal Ó Searcaigh.

Book excerpt: About the Book In this modern-day retelling of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, Andrew has lived a life filled with significant, unresolved psychological problems. Trichotillomania. Cutting. Familial issues. As the scion of an international enterprise based in Austria, and having the finer things in life, he cannot overcome his anxieties and depression. When he meets a young woman named Una, his life begins to change. Una is patient, kind, and loving. She helps Andrew through his anxieties with performance in the bedroom, and as their relationship matures and they become engaged, their life together seems smooth and exactly as it should be with a woman his family knows and accepts. Beginning to feel unsure of the lackluster life he is sure will follow a marriage to Una, Andrew begins to reconsider marrying her. His answer becomes clear when he meets American model, Greta. Now, Andrew finds himself confronted by the worst imaginable dilemma. A story weaving fact and fiction, with the overarching effects of mental health disorders, Andrew ~ A Tale of Three, is replete with joy and sorrow and emotional highs and lows. About the Author A retired academic, Kurt Darr has traveled widely and strives to be a Renaissance man. He enjoys reading, gardening, and hobbyist beekeeping, and is devoted to driving and automobiles.

Download or read book Yeats as Precursor written by S. Matthews and published by Springer. This book was released on 2000-01-27 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As both a late Romantic and a modern, W.B. Yeats has proved to be perhaps the most influential poet of the early twentieth-century. In this original study Steven Matthews traces, through close readings of significant poems, the flow of Yeatsian influence across time and cultural space. By engaging with the formalist criticism of Harold Bloom and Paul de Man in their dialogues with Jacques Derrida, he also considers Yeats's significance as the founding presence within the major poetry criticism of the century.

Download or read book Accompanied Voices written by John Greening and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2015 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poets have been inspired by music for centuries, but with the arrival of recordings and the possibility of repeated listening there was an extraordinary upsurge in verse about specific pieces, particular composers. There followed a century of pithy, perceptive responses, fascinating to the poetry lover, delightful to the music lover, and irresistible to those who are both. John Greening's new anthology draws especially on this exciting hoard of forgotten material. ACCOMPANIED VOICES is a unique book: not only is it a highly readable anthology of some of the most memorable and accessible international writing about classical music, and a moving commentary by one set of practising artists on the work of another. It is also something of a guide in verse to the great composers. There have been several anthologies of 'music poems', but never one which follows the story of western music through from the Renaissance to the twenty-first century, a fact which gives John Greening's 250-pages an encyclopaedic value. This is in effect a chronological guide to the major composers of the last four hundred years, written in the language which comes closest to music itself - poetry. Readers unaccustomed to poetry anthologies will find in ACCOMPANIED VOICES the same pleasure that they might find in simply putting on a CD and listening. Every page brings something to arrest or transport and an there is extraordinary diversity of response. Ancedote, epiphany, portrait, meditation... but many of these poets offer intellectual insights too and even critiques - there is far more variety here than any straightforward music essay can manage. But readers who feel that they do not know enough about classical music will find that these poems, while informing them, move beyond the mere names of composers and their works, reaching for more universal concerns. . JOHN GREENING is a poet and received a Cholmondeley Award in 2008. He is also a Hawthornden Fellow and a Fellow of the English Association. He has published studies of the Poets of the First World War, Yeats, Hardy, Edward Thomas and Elizabethan Love Poets.

Book excerpt: Ana Rossetti is a unique phenomenon in Spanish culture, a performer and a writer who resists categorization within any single genre, gender, period, or medium. One of the most exciting Spanish writers of the last twenty-five years, Rossetti can be both transgressive and playful, employing erotic signs (fetishes, taboos) derived from fashion, literature, design, pornography, psychology, theater, drag, and Catholicism to destabilize critical, analytic, political, social, and gender categories. Critics, however, have faced a dilemma that this book seeks to overcome: how to define her work - which bridges high and low cultures and includes poetry, fiction, essay, fashion, drama, children's literature, and opera - without resorting back to the very categories that her own artistic practice questions.

Book excerpt: This is a long novel, a tapestry of life in rural Australia with all the characters, the localities, the climate and the social life so finely pictured that not one single aspect of the portrayal jars. Reminiscent of John Steinbeck's wonderful pen pictures of rural America and the unique characters that dwelt therein. The story line is good and well maintained. The language is rough but not aggressively Australian and laced with typical wit. The racial prejudice is infiltrated throughout the story so imperceptibly that it becomes almost acceptable as a normal attitude, as does the behavior of the senior policeman in the small station. It is only as the story draws to its rather horrifying conclusion that the reader begins to realize its skillful condemnation of the average Australian's apathy towards bad social attitudes and political intrigue. This is not to suggest the tale degenerates into a lecture on morality. It is an excellent read throughout.
