Parody
Author: Robert Chambers
Publisher: Peter Lang
ISBN: 9781433108693
Category : Drama
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
Parody: The Art That Plays with Art explodes the near-universal belief that parody is a copycat genre or that it consists of a collection of trivial and derivative forms. Parody is revealed as an über-technique, a principal source of innovation and invention in the arts. The technique is defined in terms of three major variations that bang, bind, and blend artistic conventions into contrasting pairings, the results of which are upheavals of existing conventions and the formation of unexpected and sometimes startling and revolutionary new configurations. Parodic art fashions a galaxy of contrasts, and from these stem an illusionistic sense of multiplicity and an array of divergent meanings and interpretive paths. This book, an extreme departure from existing analyses of parody, is nonetheless highly accessible and will be of major interest not only to scholars but to general readers and to professional writers as well. Parody: The Art That Plays with Art is particularly suited for readers interested in modernism, postmodernism, meta-art, criticism, satire, and irony.

The Salt Hour
Author: J. P. White
Publisher: University of Illinois Press
ISBN: 9780252069567
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 122
Book Description
"With this dazzling collection, J.P. White embarks on a windswept journey through seductive, treacherous waterways. Conveying a stormy sense of place defined less by geography than by the push and pull of the mind at odds with circumstance, these bracing poems plumb the depths of the sea and of the human heart in muscular, graceful language. A restless traveler who takes us from England and Russia to Nicaragua and the Caribbean, White pushes beyond the boundaries of the lyric/narrative tradition to let more of the world, more flux of the larger human condition rush in. As The Salt Hour wends its way from Lake Erie to the Sea of Cortez, from the Aegean Sea to ice-choked Baffin Bay, White reveals the electric clash of public and private in the natural and human worlds: a teenaged boy face to face with the blue-skinned sideshow freak who reminds him of himself; a late-shift utility worker catastrophically distracted by an angel in black lace and high heels; the perilous first leap of seal pups into the black, merciless water. Drenched in color almost achingly vivid, The Salt Hour evokes the very salt breath of the sea together with the poet's need for connection with the shore"--Back cover
