Book Description
"Energy constricted in a dot of purity / Infinitely hot and dense dreams liberty." endless metamorphosis by Aurora Kastanias. Poeticles are 'poetic-less' melanges of words portraying the startlingly multifarious aspects of a human being's life. Its perceptions, sentiments, observations and realities. Five years of Poeticles have now been selected to compose a five-volume series, of which 'endless metamorphosis' is the third. Engendered by the entrancing contemplation of the myriad marvelling sceneries offered by our world, The Nature Collection depicts Gaia's rivulets and mountains, oceans and gardens, their inhabitants and all that exists within a Universe immense, in poetry, as awareness awakens through our form.

The Unpolitical
Author: Massimo Cacciari
Publisher: Fordham Univ Press
ISBN: 0823230058
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 513
Book Description
Massimo Cacciari is one of the leading public intellectuals in today's Italy, both as an outstanding philosopher and political thinker and as now three times (and currently) the mayor of Venice. This collection of essays on political topics provides the best introduction in English to his thought to date. The political focus does not, however, prevent these essays from being an introduction to the full range of Cacciari's thought. The present collection includes chapters on Hofmannstahl, Lukács, Benjamin, Nietzsche, Weber, Derrida, Schmitt, Canetti, and Aeschylus. Written between 1978 and 2006, these essays engagingly address the most hidden tradition in European political thought: the Unpolitical. Far from being a refusal of politics, the Unpolitical represents a merciless critique of political reason and a way out of the now impracticable consolations of utopia and harmonious community. Drawing freely from philosophy and literature, The Unpolitical represents a powerful contribution to contemporary political theory. A lucid and engaging Introduction by Alessandro Carrera sets these essays in the context of Cacciari's work generally and in the broadest context of its historical and geographical backdrop.

Poetic Revolutionaries
Author: Marion May Campbell
Publisher: Rodopi
ISBN: 9401210357
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 317
Book Description
Poetic Revolutionaries is an exploration of the relationship between radical textual practice, social critique and subversion. From an introduction considering recent debates regarding the cultural politics of intertextuality allied to avant-garde practice, the study proceeds to an exploration of texts by a range of writers for whom formal and poetic experimentation is allied to a subversive politics: Jean Genet, Monique Wittig, Angela Carter, Kathy Acker, Kathleen Mary Fallon, Kim Scott and Brian Castro. Drawing on theories of avant-garde practice, intertextuality, parody, representation, and performance such as those of Mikhaïl Bakhtin, Julia Kristeva, Gérard Genette, Margaret A. Rose, Linda Hutcheon, Fredric Jameson, Ross Chambers and Judith Butler, these readings explore how a confluence of writing strategies – covering the structural, narratological, stylistic and scenographic – can work to boost a text’s subversive power.

The Poetry of Antonio Machado
Author: Xon De Ros
Publisher: OUP Oxford
ISBN: 0191056499
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 293
Book Description
This study offers a reappraisal of the contribution of the poet Antonio Machado to Modernism, seeking to open up new perspectives for the interpretation of his poetry, and includes for the first time a comparative analysis of Machado's translators into English. While the book is attentive to areas of recent critical debate, the argument keeps Machado's poems to the fore, with new detailed readings of many of his most significant poems. The reader will find that the structure of this book also allows for a separate exploration of each of Machado's main poetic tendencies. One associated with the Symbolist poetics is considered in Chapter I dealing with those early poems where the sound of water acquires a rich symbolic meaning. An emphasis on the visual imagination is more prevalent in the material studied in chapters II and III with a focus on the natural landscape, while the more conceptual and intellectual strand occupies Chapter IV. Every individual chapter begins with a brief introduction to the theoretical ground related to the specific discussion (on gender, space-place, the sublime, and translation, respectively), and a survey of the cultural discourses which situate the material under analysis in the original historical contexts.

Caseness and Narrative
Author: Michael A. Susko
Publisher: AllrOneofUs Publishing
ISBN: 1393047874
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 69
Book Description
Caseness and Narrative contrasts two ways of trying to help persons in emotional distress. The first, called Caseness, sees signs of distress as symptoms without significant meaning, makes a diagnosis which allows the psychiatric system to name the experience, and then uses strong methods to minimize or stop symptom expression. The second way, called Narrative, allows the story to unfold, uses the structure of narrative to frame the process, and then—to avoid the person becoming stuck––supports the transformative nature of the lived experience. We invite you to a greater and deeper understanding, which may help you, family and friends support each other going through difficult emotional experiences.
