Download or read book Dear Azula, I Have a Crush on Danny Phantom written by Azura Tyabji and published by SCB Distributors. This book was released on 2021-06-22 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2019 Button Poetry Prize Runner-Up Dear Azula, I Have a Crush on Danny Phantom is a crossover of our coming of age universes. Exploring the interplay of adolescence and media, Dear Azula is a masterclass on how Generation Z see themselves reflected on screen, how they find themselves in characters when the world does not grant them the possibility. These poems pay homage to the cartoon characters who made us the wicked lovestruck people that we are. These ubiquitous stories of teen ghost boys and water bending women gave wonder to a generation raised by recession. In illustrious villains we learned our own glamour. In chiseled chins and 2D teeth we learned desire. In Dear Azula, I Have a Crush on Danny Phantom we bring the early 2000s renaissance of animation into our modern lives to unpack, celebrate, revel, and remember.
Book Synopsis The Phantom Poet by : Drac Von Stoller
Download or read book The Phantom Poet written by Drac Von Stoller and published by Drac Von Stoller. This book was released on 2024-08-05 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the heart of the city, where the relentless hum of traffic and the cacophony of human life created a perpetual din, stood an old, gothic building. Its gargoyles, frozen in eternal grimace, seemed to guard the secrets hidden within its crumbling walls. It was here, in the dusty, forgotten attic, that whispers of a phantom poet first began to circulate. The building, a looming structure of weathered stone and intricate ironwork, had stood for over a century. Its spires reached towards the sky like gnarled fingers, and its windows, some cracked and others boarded up, reflected the city's lights in eerie patterns. The locals called it the "Inkwell," a nickname born from its long-standing association with the written word and the dark mysteries that seemed to seep from its very foundations. The Inkwell was home to the city's oldest newspaper, the Daily Chronicle. Founded in 1872, the Chronicle had been a witness to the city's transformation from a modest port town to a sprawling metropolis. Its pages had chronicled wars, economic booms and busts, technological revolutions, and the ever-changing face of society. The newspaper itself was a relic of a bygone era, stubbornly clinging to tradition in a world increasingly dominated by digital media. Inside, the building was a labyrinth of narrow corridors, creaking staircases, and rooms filled with the musty scent of old paper and ink. The basement housed ancient printing presses, now silent and covered in dust, but still bearing testament to the newspaper's illustrious history. The ground floor bustled with activity, a stark contrast to the quiet upper floors where time seemed to move at a different pace. It was a place steeped in history, where the echoes of bygone eras seemed to linger in the shadows. Every corner held a story, every creaking floorboard a secret. The staff, a mix of seasoned veterans and fresh-faced rookies, often spoke in hushed tones about the building's peculiarities – the elevator that sometimes took you to floors that didn't exist, the whispers heard in empty rooms, and the inexplicable cold spots that defied explanation.

Download or read book Afterland written by Mai Der Vang and published by Graywolf Press. This book was released on 2017-04-04 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2016 winner of the Walt Whitman Award of the Academy of American Poets, selected by Carolyn Forché When I make the crossing, you must not be taken no matter what the current gives. When we reach the camp, there will be thousands like us. If I make it onto the plane, you must follow me to the roads and waiting pastures of America. We will not ride the water today on the shoulders of buffalo as we used to many years ago, nor will we forage for the sweetest mangoes. I am refugee. You are too. Cry, but do not weep. —from “Transmigration” Afterland is a powerful, essential collection of poetry that recounts with devastating detail the Hmong exodus from Laos and the fate of thousands of refugees seeking asylum. Mai Der Vang is telling the story of her own family, and by doing so, she also provides an essential history of the Hmong culture’s ongoing resilience in exile. Many of these poems are written in the voices of those fleeing unbearable violence after U.S. forces recruited Hmong fighters in Laos in the Secret War against communism, only to abandon them after that war went awry. That history is little known or understood, but the three hundred thousand Hmong now living in the United States are living proof of its aftermath. With poems of extraordinary force and grace, Afterland holds an original place in American poetry and lands with a sense of humanity saved, of outrage, of a deep tradition broken by war and ocean but still intact, remembered, and lived.

Download or read book The Phantom Table written by Ann Banfield and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-02-15 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virginia Woolf identified the influence on her work of 'the Cambridge Apostles', the philosophical society which counted G. E. Moore, Bertrand Russell and much of male Bloomsbury among its members, as one more 'capable of description' than 'the influence of my mother'. In this major study of Woolf's relationship to Bloomsbury and the aesthetic and philosophical developments of her time, Ann Banfield subjects that influence to a full treatment. The theory of knowledge Moore and Russell formulated, Banfield argues, profoundly affected Woolf's conception of reality, as it did Roger Fry's theory of Post-Impressionism, one source for Woolf's transformations of philosophical principles into aesthetic ones. The Phantom Table is a magisterial account of Woolf's engagement with this remarkable trinity of thinkers: Moore, Russell, Fry. It revises the epistemology of modernism, reconceiving the relation between realism and formalism to account for Woolf's dual reality of sense impressions and logical forms.
Book Synopsis The Phantom Heroine by : Judith T. Zeitlin
Download or read book The Phantom Heroine written by Judith T. Zeitlin and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2007-06-30 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "phantom heroine"—in particular the fantasy of her resurrection through sex with a living man—is one of the most striking features of traditional Chinese literature. Even today the hypersexual female ghost continues to be a source of fascination in East Asian media, much like the sexually predatory vampire in American and European movies, TV, and novels. But while vampires can be of either gender, erotic Chinese ghosts are almost exclusively female. The significance of this gender asymmetry in Chinese literary history is the subject of Judith Zeitlin’s elegantly written and meticulously researched new book. Zeitlin’s study centers on the seventeenth century, one of the most interesting and creative periods of Chinese literature and politically one of the most traumatic, witnessing the overthrow of the Ming, the Manchu conquest, and the subsequent founding of the Qing. Drawing on fiction, drama, poetry, medical cases, and visual culture, the author departs from more traditional literary studies, which tend to focus on a single genre or author. Ranging widely across disciplines, she integrates detailed analyses of great literary works with insights drawn from the history of medicine, art history, comparative literature, anthropology, religion, and performance studies. The Phantom Heroine probes the complex literary and cultural roots of the Chinese ghost tradition. Zeitlin is the first to address its most remarkable feature: the phenomenon of verse attributed to phantom writers—that is, authors actually reputed to be spirits of the deceased. She also makes the case for the importance of lyric poetry in developing a ghostly aesthetics and image code. Most strikingly, Zeitlin shows that the representation of female ghosts, far from being a marginal preoccupation, expresses cultural concerns of central importance.

Book Synopsis Coleridge's Metaphors of Being by : Edward Kessler
Download or read book Coleridge's Metaphors of Being written by Edward Kessler and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-08 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an original and provocative demonstration that Coleridge's later poetry took on a powerful metaphysical conception, Edward Kessler emphasizes Coleridge's struggle with language as a means of both expressing and creating Being. While many of Coleridge's late poems are generally viewed as fragments that constitute an aesthetic failure, Professor Kessler contends that what at first may appear to reflect Coleridge's inability to finish a poem can otherwise be seen as a deliberate rejection of what the poet came to see as a confining form. Originally published in 1979.

Download or read book Here, Bullet written by Brian Turner and published by Alice James Books. This book was released on 2014-09-01 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A first-person account of the Iraq War by a solider-poet, winner of the 2005 Beatrice Hawley Award. Adding his voice to the current debate about the US occupation of Iraq, in poems written in the tradition of such poets as Wilfred Owen, Yusef Komunyakaa (Dien Cai Dau), Bruce Weigl (Song of Napalm) and Alice James’ own Doug Anderson (The Moon Reflected Fire), Iraqi war veteran Brian Turner writes power-fully affecting poetry of witness, exceptional for its beauty, honesty, and skill. Based on Turner’s yearlong tour in Iraq as an infantry team leader, the poems offer gracefully rendered, unflinching description but, remarkably, leave the reader to draw conclusions or moral lessons. Here, Bullet is a must-read for anyone who cares about the war, regardless of political affiliation.
Download or read book Phantom of Chance written by John D Lyons and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2011-11-30 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How the classical and medieval conceptions of Fortune shifted to the modern notion of chanceIs chance nothing more than a projection of human desire on to the world? In this fascinating new study, John Lyons argues that the idea of chance assumed new vigour in the late Renaissance, when converging philosophical and literary currents demystified the powerful concept of Fortune, sensitizing writers to the relationship between human desire and the world's apparent randomness. Up to now, the story of chance has been written by historians of mathematical thought and has focused on calculation, probability and gambling. Lyons, by contrast, highlights the ethical, aesthetic and even erotic aspects of chance. He offers detailed readings of the works of major French authors - Montaigne, Corneille, Lafayette, Scudery, Pascal, Racine, Bossuet, and La Bruyere.
Download or read book Ghost Girl written by Amy Gerstler and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2004-04-06 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sly and sophisticated, direct, playful, and profound, Amy Gerstler’s new collection highlights her distinctive poetic style. In thirty-seven poems, using a variety of dramatic voices and visual techniques, she finds meaning in unexpected places, from a tour of a doll hospital to an ad for a CD of Beethoven symphonies to an earthy exploration of toast. Gerstler’s abiding interests—in love and mourning, in science and pseudoscience, in the idea of an afterlife, in seances and magic—are all represented here. Entertaining and erudite, complex yet accessible, these poems will enhance Gerstler’s reputation as an important contemporary poet.
