Going Farther Into the Woods Than the Woods Go
Author: Seaborn Jones
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780881462722
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Going Farther into the Woods than the Woods Go opens with the poet speaking from an interior landscape in which life is going too fast and he is lonely and isolated from himself and others. Life is brutal, and the speaker finds himself constantly questioning his self-worth, yet in a surrealistic, witty fashion perhaps best described as black humor. As the book moves forward, the point of view shifts to a landscape largely identified as a desert. Many of these poems address the horrors of war, with concerns such as political liberation, elections, and the plight of refugees. Throughout the book, the aloneness and isolation of the individual is the paramount theme; yet, despite the darkness of the poet's vision, his fresh, vivid imagery, use of wit and humor, and his unique approach to style and content make this book a showcase for one of the most interesting and original voices in contemporary American poetry.

Self/Same/Other
Author: Heather Walton
Publisher: A&C Black
ISBN: 9781841270197
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
This collection of essays explores the way our notions of self, other, subjectivity, gender and the sacred text are being re-visioned within contemporary theory. These new ways of conceiving create upheavals and radical shifts that rework our understanding of philosophical, psychological, political, sexual and spiritual identity, allowing us to trace the fault lines, regulatory forces, exclusions and unmarked spaces both within our selves, and within the discourses that attend these selves. As such, revisionings break down borders, and the encounter of literature and theology becomes a crucial focus for these explorations, as the self learns to resituate its own being creatively vis-a-vis others and, ultimately, the Other.
