Poetry has long been thought of as a genre devoted to grand subjects, timeless themes, and sublime beauty. Why, then, have contemporary poets turned with such intensity to documenting and capturing the everyday and mundane? Drawing on insights about the nature of everyday life from philosophy, history, and critical theory, Andrew Epstein traces the modern history of this preoccupation and considers why it is so much with us today. Attention Equals Life argues that a potent hunger for everyday life explodes in the post-1945 period as a reaction to the rapid, unsettling transformations of this epoch, which have resulted in a culture of perilous distraction. Epstein demonstrates that poetry is an important, and perhaps unlikely, cultural form that has mounted a response, and even a mode of resistance, to a culture suffering from an acute crisis of attention. In this timely and engaging study, Epstein examines why a compulsion to represent the everyday becomes predominant in the decades after modernism and why it has so often sparked genre-bending formal experimentation. With chapters devoted to illuminating readings of a diverse group of writers--including poets associated with influential movements like the New York School, language poetry, and conceptual writing--the book considers the variety of forms contemporary poetry of everyday life has taken, and analyzes how gender, race, and political forces all profoundly inflect the experience and the representation of the quotidian. By exploring the rise of experimental realism as a poetic mode and the turn to rule-governed "everyday-life projects," Attention Equals Life offers a new way of understanding a vital strain at the heart of twentieth- and twenty-first century literature. It not only charts the evolution of a significant concept in cultural theory and poetry, but also reminds readers that the quest to pay attention to the everyday within today's frenetic world of smartphones and social media is an urgent and unending task.
60 Morning Walks is a sixty-part meditation inspired by Utagawa Hiroshige's kaleidoscopically shifting vantage on the ever-changing city. The project's companion piece, available on UDP's website, revisits many of the same New York locations, yet now with its language contracted out to an error-prone online transcription service. The unmediated/mediated idiom of these two halves disrupts any easy reading of the overall project as a lyrical or conceptual text.

Your Walk Walks and Your Talk Talks by Lora Goss Pdf
Making decisions at any age is not always an easy feat. When you are walking with the Lord Jesus Christ, it makes sense to pray and do the next right thing. As life moves at ninety miles an hour, moving with the flow can set you up to make split-second decisions. Taking what we think is the easy way is often the hardest of all. We are told in 1 Peter 5:7 to cast all our cares on Him because He cares for us. Taking the Jesus way out is always the best way. It may not be the easy that we are looking for, but it will not leave the collateral damage that our way leaves behind. The roads that we walk down in life are covered with attractive billboards drawing us to off-ramps that will lead us to destruction. It is so important to keep our eyes fixed on Jesus Christ as we walk life's highways and byways so we are not lured into the craziness that the world has to offer. Taking life one moment at a time is actually a doable thing. Life moves in seconds, not days. Don't let one trial take you down. Romans 8:13 says that we are more than conquerors, and thankfully, God is a god of do-overs!

Two Minute Talks to Improve Psychological and Behavioral Health by John F. Clabby Pdf
'There are important books that focus a full effort on a painful emotion such as depression or panic. Frankly, many troubled people do not directly present with such complaints. Instead, they speak about marital stress, upset about making an oral presentation, dealing with a mean-spirited co-worker, poor nutritional habits, handling uncooperative children or early adolescents, and domestic violence. They want practical guidance about those content areas as well.'- John F Clabby. Health professionals confronted with symptoms of mental and emotional distress often lack knowledge of how to respond to the situations that underlie them, or feel unable to address them in time-limited consultations. This can lead many to either adopt an empathetic listening approach which fails to address underlying causes effectively, or avoid asking their patients and clients about their psychosocial lives at all. Two Minute Talks to Improve Psychological and Behavioral Health takes a unique approach to this common dilemma. It provides concise, pragmatic and matter-of-fact advice which health professionals can use to effectively address the most common underlying causes of distress, such as work, family or relationship difficulties, poor nutritional habits, domestic violence and grief. Although firmly evidence-based, it avoids unnecessary detail to provide a practical reference which can either be read in its entirety or used as a quick reference of clear, accessible advice and strategies that patients can put into use. It is an essential addition to the toolbox of all health professionals who want to provide effective, responsive and empathetic care to their clients in time-limited situations. 'This book will reveal to you talents and results you did not believe possible. It will re-energize your approach to care, and make it fun to talk with and get to know your patients'. - from the Foreword by Kenneth Faistl.
