Autumn Poems: New and Selected by Christopher Yokel Pdf

This small volume is a project that IÕve wanted to do for quite some time. Growing up in New England, autumn has always been my favorite season of the year: the crisp coolness in the air, the apple picking, apple cider, apple everything, the trees going up in fire across the landscape, the holidays. As a poet who most often writes about nature, this season has inspired my creativity perhaps more than any other. Autumn is a paradox of tremendous beauty in the midst of dying, and as such, it has always felt like a seasonal thin place for me, where a glimpse from the other side of things comes bursting through.This volume collects most of my autumn themed poems found in other volumes, along with a few new, previously unpublished ones. So, find a cozy armchair, pour yourself some hot cider, and enjoy.

The Heart of Autumn by Robert Atwan Pdf

A beautiful gift book that captures autumn in all its contemplative beautyThe Heart of Autumn collects some thirty masterful poems by English-language writers on the experience of reflection and introspection that occurs with the fading of the sunlight, the cooling of the earth, and the dropping of the leaves. Illustrated throughout with graceful pen-and-ink drawings of fall foliage, this volume features a selection of some of the world's most acclaimed poets from Gerard Manley Hopkins, Emily Dickinson, and William Wordsowrth to comtemporary poets including e.e. cummins, Robert Bly, and W.S. Merwin. Each poem offers readers a glimpse of the satisfying gifts that fall brings to us, and a celebration of the hallmarks of the season: the harvest, Thanksgiving, and finally, the onset of winter. The title of the book is taken from a Robert Penn Warren poem, and the introduction is a meditation on the season by his daughter, the poet Rosanna Warren. Other contributors include: Archibald MacLeish, May Sarton, Pamela Steed Hill, Yvor Winters, Edgar Lee Masters, John Keats, Mary Jo Salter, Siegfried Sassoon, Richard Wilbur, Louise Bogan, Carl Sandburg, William Butler Yeats, and more.

Burying Autumn by Hu Ying Pdf

"“Autumn wind, autumn rain, fill my heart with sorrow”—these were the last words of Qiu Jin (1875–1907), written before she was beheaded for plotting to overthrow the Qing empire. Eventually, she would be celebrated as a Republican martyr and China’s first feminist, her last words committed to memory by schoolchildren. Yet during her lifetime she was often seen as eccentric, even deviant; in her death, and still more in the forced abandonment of her remains, the authorities had wanted her to disappear into historical oblivion.Burying Autumn tells the story of the enduring friendship between Qiu Jin and her sworn-sisters Wu Zhiying and Xu Zihua, who braved political persecution to give her a proper burial. Formed amidst social upheaval, their bond found its most poignant expression in Wu and Xu’s mourning for Qiu. The archives of this friendship—letters, poems, biographical sketches, steles, and hand-copied sutra—vividly display how these women understood the concrete experiences of modernity, how they articulated those experiences through traditional art forms, and how their artworks transformed the cultural traditions they invoked even while maintaining deep cultural roots. In enabling Qiu Jin to acquire historical significance, their friendship fulfilled its ultimate socially transformative potential."

Wallace Stevens and the Seasons by George S. Lensing Pdf

This fruitful pairing of literary and biographical interpretation follows Wallace Stevens’s poetry through the lens of its dominant metaphor—the seasons of nature—and illuminates the poet’s personal life experiences reflected there. From Stevens’s first collection, Harmonium (1923), to his last poems written shortly before his death in 1955, George S. Lensing offers clear and detailed examination of Stevens’s seasonal poetry, including extensive discussions of “Autumn Refrain,” “The Snow Man,” “The World as Meditation,” and “Credences of Summer.” Drawing upon a vast knowledge of the poet, Lensing argues that Stevens’s pastoral poetry of the seasons assuaged a profound and persistent personal loneliness. An important scholarly assessment of a major twentieth-century modernist, Wallace Stevens and the Seasons also serves as an appealing introduction to Stevens.

Pictures of the Heart by Joshua S. Mostow Pdf

The Hyakunin Isshu, or One Hundred Poets, One Poem Each collection, is a sequence of one hundred Japanese poems in the tanka form, selected by the famous poet and scholar Fujiwara no Teika (1162-1241) and arranged, in part, to represent the history of Japanese poetry from the seventh century down to Teika's own day. The anthology is, without doubt, the most popular and widely known collection of poetry in Japan - a distinction it has maintained for hundreds of years. In this study, Joshua Mostow challenges the idea of a final or authoritative reading of the Hyakunin Isshu and presents a refreshing, persuasive case for a reception history of this seminal work. In addition to providing a new translation of this classic text and biographical information on each poet, Mostow examines issues relating to text and image that are central to the Japanese arts from the Heian into the early modern period. By using Edo-period woodblock illustrations as pictorializations of the poems - as "pictures of the heart," or meaning, of the poems - text and image are pieced together in a holistic approach that will stand as a model for further research in the interrelationship between Japanese visual and verbal art.
