Languages : en
Pages : 124
Book Description
« Je marchais vers la mer, vers l’enfant. Il faisait noir. Le long de la voie ferrée, le visage en sang, les mains tendues en avant, crispées. Je râlais aussi, souffle ténu et aigre d’une flûte qu’on étrangle. Je me disais, au bout de ce chemin, de cette voie ferrée, il y a la mer... Je m’y jetterai, je me laverai de tout ce sang qui dégouline sur ma figure et dans mon cou, dans mon dos. Et peut-être qu’il m’attendra sur la plage, avec son petit bonnet passe-montagne et son duffle-coat marine. » Dominique Solamens

The Galloping Hour: French Poems
Author: Alejandra Pizarnik
Publisher: New Directions Publishing
ISBN: 0811227758
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 93
Book Description
A beautifully produced and exquisitely translated edition of French poems by “the best exponent of the poetry of introversion and metaphorical delirium” (Italo Calvino) The Galloping Hour: French Poems—never before rendered in English and unpublished during her lifetime—gathers for the first time all the poems that Alejandra Pizarnik (revered by Octavio Paz and Roberto Bolano) wrote in French. Conceived during her Paris sojourn (1960–1964) and in Buenos Aires (1970–1971) near the end of her tragically short life, these poems explore many of Pizarnik’s deepest obsessions: the limitation of language, silence, the body, night, sex, and the nature of intimacy. Drawing from personal life experiences and echoing readings of some of her beloved/accursed French authors—Charles Baudelaire, Germain Nouveau, Arthur Rimbaud, and Antonin Artaud—this collection includes prose poems that Pizarnik would later translate into Spanish. Pizarnik’s work led Raúl Zurita to note: “Her poetry—with a clarity that becomes piercing—illuminates the abysses of emotional sensitivity, desire, and absence. It presses against our lives and touches the most exposed, fragile, and numb parts of humanity.”

Beyond Fingal's Cave
Author: James Porter
Publisher:
ISBN: 1580469450
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 425
Book Description
Demonstrates the profound impact of The Poems of Ossian on composers of the Romantic Era and later: Beethoven, Schubert, Mendelssohn, Brahms, Massenet, and many others. Beyond Fingal's Cave: Ossian in the Musical Imagination is the first study in English of musical compositions inspired by the poems published in the 1760s and attributed to a purported ancient Scottish bard named Ossian. From around 1780 onwards, the poems stimulated poets, artists, and composers in Europe as well as North America to break away from the formality of the Enlightenment. The admiration for Ossian's poems -shared by Napoleon, Goethe, and Thomas Jefferson - was an important stimulus in the development of Romanticism and the music that was a central part of it. More important still was the view of the German cultural philosopher Johann Gottfried Herder, who saw past the controversy over the poems' authenticity to the traditional elements in these heroic poems and their mood of lament. James Porter's long-awaited book traces the traditional sources used by James Macpherson for his epoch-making prose poems and examines crucial works by composers such as Beethoven, Schubert, Mendelssohn, Brahms, and Massenet. Many other relatively unknown composers were also moved to write operas, cantatas, songs, and instrumental pieces, some of which have proven to be powerfully evocative and well worth performing and recording.
