The Echoing Green: Poems of Fields, Meadows, and Grasses is a unique anthology of poetry about the natural world. The rich poetic history of grass spans the centuries, from the pastoral poems of ancient Rome to the fields and prairies of the New World. The rapturous idealizations of William Blake’s “echoing green” and William Wordsworth’s “splendour in the grass” stand in vivid contrast to the obliterating greenery on human battlefields in war poems such as John McCrae’s “In Flanders Fields” and Carl Sandburg’s “Grass,” or to the work of contemporary poets—Lucia Perillo, Harryette Mullen, Denise Levertov, and Gary Soto among them—who reflect on an age of environmental crisis. Here is a rich array of poets from around the world, including Virgil, T’ao Ch’ien, Bashō, Andrew Marvell, Robert Burns, Victor Hugo, Christina Rossetti, Rainer Maria Rilke, Anna Akhmatova, Willa Cather, Ingeborg Bachmann, Ted Hughes, Seamus Heaney, Tomas Tranströmer, Sherman Alexie, and Derek Walcott, in a dazzling celebration of our complicated relationship to nature.
Loni is imprisoned for murdering her husband, Michael. But, as the story of this beautiful and increasingly hardened woman gradually reveals, he is not her only victim. Time and time again she has murdered his likeness as it appeared in its various guises - be it a childhood piano teacher or a lover. Like a vampire, Loni is doomed to destroy any man who falls in love with her. This novel is both a stunning poem in the manner of Schubert's Death and the Maiden' and a hilarious riff on contemporary culture.'
The PIP Anthology of World Poetry of the 20th Century: Linving space: poems of the Dutch Fiftiers by Douglas Messerli Pdf
In 1979 Peter Glassgold edited for New Directions a poetry collection from 7 Dutch writers known throughout Europe as The Fiftiers' - poets who, having grown up in the turbulent 1940s, came of age as poetic and visual experimenters in the 50s. This revealing collection has remained an influential testament to this exciting poetry ever since, withstanding newer and larger selections of poetry from the Netherlands. This revised and expanded edition includes a note by Douglas Messerli.'
For years the noted author and founded-publisher of Sun & Moon Press and Green Integer has been spurred by fellow writers and friends to write his memoirs. But Messerli argues that he does not have the sensibility to write only about his personal experiences, since his life has been primarily defined by cultural encounters - thus this annual collection of essays on these experiences as well as the hundreds of notable figures with whom he has had friendships and working relationships. The 2005 volume includes Paul Auster, Robert Creeley and John O'Keefe, among others.
The third volume in Messerli's ongoing cultural memoirs', beginning in the year 2000, considers all things 'under the skin': readings, events and memories that have defined him as a person. In his ongoing attempt to write about a life defined by cultural experiences, Messerli delves deep into the cultural events, both popular and literary, he was witness to during his lifetime.'

The World, the Text, and the Critic by Edward W. Said Pdf
Said demonstrates that critical discourse has been strengthened by the writings of Derrida and Foucault and by influences like Marxism, structuralism, linguistics, and psychoanalysis. But, he argues, these forces have compelled literature to meet the requirements of a theory or system, ignoring complex affiliations binding the texts to the world.
