Crystallography by Christian Bök Pdf

"'Crystallography' means the study of crystals, but also, taken literally, 'lucid writing.' This book of avant-garde literature features the intersection of poetry and science, and explores the relationship between language and crystals - looking at language as a crystal, a space in which the chaos of individual parts align to expose a perfect formation of structure."--Provided by publisher.

Library of Small Catastrophes by Alison C. Rollins Pdf

Library of Small Catastrophes, Alison Rollins’ ambitious debut collection, interrogates the body and nation as storehouses of countless tragedies. Drawing from Jorge Luis Borges’ fascination with the library, Rollins uses the concept of the archive to offer a lyric history of the ways in which we process loss. “Memory is about the future, not the past,” she writes, and rather than shying away from the anger, anxiety, and mourning of her narrators, Rollins’ poetry seeks to challenge the status quo, engaging in a diverse, boundary-defying dialogue with an ever-present reminder of the ways race, sexuality, spirituality, violence, and American culture collide.

The Crystal Text by Clark Coolidge Pdf

The occasion for this poetic meditation is a colorless quartz crystal sitting upon the writer's desk. The crystal is as still and irreducible as a death's head in St. Jerome's study or Cezanne's studio. But what would the crystal reveal, if it could speak? How might the issue of its presence be brought into language? The poet of The Crystal Text, by means of a rare stamina of attention and listening vulnerability, seeks to become the medium of the crystal's transmissions. Like many other Coolidge works, The Crystal Text sounds the depths of a visionary excavation of present being. Faced daily, Coolidge's quest is to know anything, to write everything. And what is revealed here in the glancing light of his language's mineral beauty is the writing mind itself. Its precision, its weights and measures, its peerless word choice and shutter speed all combine in passages of inspired momentum to bring the reader cognitions of a unique and exemplary kind.

It Was a Crystal Clear Night by Thomas Montgomery Pdf

It Was a Crystal Clear Night is the most recent work by the author and was God-driven almost from the first. It is clearly a devotional in its present form: reality-based Christian poetry hallmarked by several Christian commentaries to evoke thought and consideration on the part of the reader. Readers will find themselves associating with the poetic content as it touches on daily events; and will not be put off by the commentaries as the author did not delve into a serious theological approach as he sieved out the poems from a Christian perspective giving depth and greater meaning beyond that which the poems themselves hold forth for the reader to digest. In effect, the reader thus gains a two-fold prosperity by reading this work: poetic information and identity; and Christian elaboration full of thought-provoking material. The reader will come away from the work having had time to indulge in devotional reading, thoughtful self-conversation, prayerful insight into Christian lifestyle and expectations, and a quiet sense of uplifting through the work of the Holy Spirit charging their batteries. It is a unique kind of Christian material in the manner in which it is presented, and in the way it garnishes Christians values and truths in subtle ways without preaching; rather, it is almost invitational in its approach to God-speak. Friendly, warm, gentle, honest, and precise are other words that describe this work.

Eunoia by Christian Bök Pdf

'Eunoia', which means 'beautiful thinking', is the shortest English word to contain all five vowels. This book also contains them all, except that each one appears by itself in its own chapter. A unique personality for each vowel soon emerges: A is courtly, E is elegiac, I is lyrical, O is jocular, U is obscene. A triumphant feat, seven years in the making, Eunoia is as playful as it is awe-inspiring.

Paul Celan by John Felstiner Pdf

Paul Celan, Europe's most compelling postwar poet, was a German-speaking, East European Jew. His writing exposes and illumines the wounds that Nazi destructiveness left on language. John Felstiner's sensitive and accessible book is the first critical biography of Celan in any language. It offers new translations of well-known and little-known poems--including a chapter on Celan's famous "Deathfugue"--plus his speeches, prose fiction, and letters. The book also presents hitherto unpublished photos of the poet and his circle. Drawing on interviews with Celan's family and friends and his personal library in Normandy and Paris, as well as voluminous German commentary, Felstiner tells the poet's gripping story: his birth in 1920 in Romania, the overnight loss of his parents in a Nazi deportation, his experience of forced labor and Soviet occupation during the war, and then his difficult exile in Paris. The life's work of Paul Celan emerges through readings of his poems within their personal and historical matrix. At the same time, Felstiner finds fresh insights by opening up the very process of translating Celan's poems. To present this poetry and the strain of Jewishness it displays, Felstiner uncovers Celan's sources in the Bible and Judaic mysticism, his affinities with Kafka, Heine, Hölderlin, Rilke, and Nelly Sachs, his fascination with Heidegger and Buber, his piercing translations of Shakespeare, Dickinson, Mandelshtam, Apollinaire. First and last, Felstiner explores the achievement of a poet surviving in his mother tongue, the German language that had passed, Celan said, "through the thousand darknesses of deathbringing speech."

Empathy in Contemporary Poetry after Crisis by Anna Veprinska Pdf

This book examines the representation of empathy in contemporary poetry after crisis, specifically poetry after the Holocaust, the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, and Hurricane Katrina. The text argues that, recognizing both the possibilities and dangers of empathy, the poems under consideration variously invite and refuse empathy, thus displaying what Anna Veprinska terms empathetic dissonance. Veprinska proposes that empathetic dissonance reflects the texts’ struggle with the question of the value and possibility of empathy in the face of the crises to which these texts respond. Examining poems from Charlotte Delbo, Dionne Brand, Niyi Osundare, Charles Reznikoff, Robert Fitterman, Wisława Szymborska, Cynthia Hogue, Claudia Rankine, Paul Celan, Dan Pagis, Lucille Clifton, and Katie Ford, among others, Veprinska considers empathetic dissonance through language, witnessing, and theology. Merging comparative close readings with interdisciplinary theory from philosophy, psychology, cultural theory, history and literary theory, and trauma studies, this book juxtaposes a genocide, a terrorist act, and a natural disaster amplified by racial politics and human disregard in order to consider what happens to empathy in poetry after events at the limits of empathy.

Shadow of a Cloud But No Cloud by Killarney Clary Pdf

"Shadow of a Cloud but No Cloud" is the latest offering from enigmatic prose-poet Killarney Clary. Like her earlier book, "Potential Stranger," this is a book-length sequence of unnumbered, untitled poems. "Shadow of a Cloud but No Cloud," in poem after poem, evokes crystal-clear moments in time in fraught domestic relationships. One can almost hear the speakers inhaling and exhaling worry or gratitude in the spaces between speech, emulating or reflecting the sparkling or bleak landscapes around them. In a poem that begins We watched ravens, ostensibly about two people in a car at a truck-stop on a desert highway, the speaker muses: As long as we were not speaking, I wouldn t hear what I was afraid you d say. I wouldn t say the words I d be sorry for. Doesn t the wind need to rest? A motley sparrow turned his working, calico eye to the sun, heated the mites then dusted them. Tending to himself, he looked bad. In another poem that begins There went my chance to say: "I never said that." We are on the phone. I am wondering, "Could I have said that?" as you speak forward into other news, what might be. I run behind, see what you have missed. I am missing too. Oh but what I let you say. This quietly haunting book, remarkable for its subtlety and delicacy, is Clary s strongest, most engaging book to date, and amply shows her to be the master of this most difficult of lyric genres."

Shining Through by Ben Gerritsen Pdf

In the Mahabharata, a Takshaa asks Tudishtira, What is the greatest miracle? Yudishtira replies, The greatest miracle is that we, although always surrounded by death and decay, live as if we are immortal. What a very profound answer that is, we live as if we are immortal while we can drop dead in the next minute. Without the inward realization that life and death are just the movement of Love we are bound to repeat the same dreams and nightmares over and over again. That the poems in Shining Through may guide you to the Love within, the Love you are in The Beloved. That is the poets true wish.

Studies in Chinese Poetry by James R. Hightower,Florence Chia-ying Yeh Pdf

This collection of seventeen essays by James R. Hightower and Florence Chia-ying Yeh contains three chapters on shih poetry, ten chapters on Sung tz'u, and four chapters on the works of Wang Kuo-wei. It includes ten previously unpublished works, including Hightower's now classic work on T'ao Ch'ien and Yeh's studies of Subg tz'u, as well as seven important additions to the literature on Chinese poetry. The essays treat individual poets, particular poetic techniques (for example, allusion), and general issues of period style and poetry criticism. The previoulsy published items have been updated to include the Chinese texts of all poems presented in translation. Although authored separately by Professors Hightower and Yeh, the essays presented here are the result of theor thirty years of collaboration in working on Chinese poetry. Through close readings of individual texts, the two authors explicate the stylistic and psychological components of the work of the poets they study and present compelling interpretations of their poems.
