Book Synopsis English Poetry and Old Norse Myth by : Heather O'Donoghue
Download or read book English Poetry and Old Norse Myth written by Heather O'Donoghue and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2014-07-17 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: English Poetry and Old Norse Myth: A History traces the influence of Old Norse myth — stories and poems about the familiar gods and goddesses of the pagan North, such as Odin, Thor, Baldr and Freyja — on poetry in English from Anglo-Saxon times to the present day. Especial care is taken to determine the precise form in which these poets encountered the mythic material, so that the book traces a parallel history of the gradual dissemination of Old Norse mythic texts. Very many major poets were inspired by Old Norse myth. Some, for instance the Anglo-Saxon poet of Beowulf, or much later, Sir Walter Scott, used Old Norse mythic references to lend dramatic colour and apparent authenticity to their presentation of a distant Northern past. Others, like Thomas Gray, or Matthew Arnold, adapted Old Norse mythological poems and stories in ways which both responded to and helped to form the literary tastes of their own times. Still others, such as William Blake, or David Jones, reworked and incorporated celebrated elements of Norse myth - valkyries weaving the fates of men, or the great World Tree Yggdrasill on which Odin sacrificed himself - as personal symbols in their own poetry. This book also considers less familiar literary figures, showing how a surprisingly large number of poets in English engaged in individual ways with Old Norse myth. English Poetry and Old Norse Myth: A History demonstrates how attitudes towards the pagan mythology of the north change over time, but reveals that poets have always recognized Old Norse myth as a vital part of the literary, political and historical legacy of the English-speaking world.
Book Synopsis The Story of the Milkman and Other Poems by : Alan Walowitz
Download or read book The Story of the Milkman and Other Poems written by Alan Walowitz and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-02-27 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ""Alan Walowitz's poetry can provoke out-loud laughter and pensive melancholy; better still, he can even do both in the same poem. He has a particular talent for reconstructing recollections, quietly showing us what is moving about them and why, as in this volume's splendid title poem."" Robert Wexelblatt, author of 'The Posthumous Papers of Sidney Fein' ""What I love about Alan Walowitz's poems, is the very relatable way in which he captures so many of life's important moments with astute observation, wry humor, and empathy. He has a distinctive voice which infiltrates my synapses and resonates with my heart."" Betsy Mars, author of 'Alinea' ""Alan Walowitz is neither withholding nor unnecessarily oblique. And then there's the welcome wit, as he juggles the sometimes Jewish-blues in deft narratives that never cease to surprise. In his refusal to claim wisdom, he is wise. And oh, so rare to turn a breath into a gasp."" Estha Weiner, author of 'at the last minute'

Book Synopsis Scotland as Science Fiction by : Caroline McCracken-Flesher
Download or read book Scotland as Science Fiction written by Caroline McCracken-Flesher and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2012 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Out of the mainstream but ahead of the tide, that is Scottish Science Fiction. Science Fiction emphasizes "progress" through technology, advanced mental states, or future times. How does Scotland, often considered a land of the past, lead in Science Fiction? "Left behind" by international politics, Scots have cultivated alternate places and different times as sites of identity so that Scotland can seem a futuristic fiction itself. This book explores the tensions between science and a particular society that produce an innovative science fiction. Essays consider Scottish thermodynamics, Celtic myth, the rigors of religious "conversion," Scotland's fractured politics yet civil society, its languages of alterity (Scots, Gaelic, allegory, poetry), and the lure of the future. From Peter Pan and Dr. Jekyll to the poetry of Edwin Morgan and the worlds of Muriel Spark, Ken Macleod, or Iain M. Banks, Scotland's creative complex yields a literature that models the future for Science Fiction.

Book Synopsis Myths of the Pagan North by : Christopher Abram
Download or read book Myths of the Pagan North written by Christopher Abram and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-03-03 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the Vikings began to migrate overseas as raiders or settlers in the late eighth century, there is evidence that this new way of life, centred on warfare, commerce and exploration, brought with it a warrior ethos that gradually became codified in the Viking myths, notably in the cult of Odin, the god of war, magic and poetry, and chief god in the Norse pantheon. The twelfth and thirteenth centuries, when most of Scandinavia had long since been converted to Christianity, form perhaps the most important era in the history of Norse mythology: only at this point were the myths of Thor, Freyr and Odin first recorded in written form. Using archaeological sources to take us further back in time than any written document, the accounts of foreign writers like the Roman historian Tacitus, and the most important repository of stories of the gods, old Norse poetry and the Edda, Christopher Abram leads the reader into the lost world of the Norse gods.
