Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group Rhymes Rooms
Book SynopsisFrom the widely acclaimed poet, novelist, critic, and scholar, a lucid and edifying exploration of the building blocks of poetry and how they’ve been used over the centuries to assemble the most imperishable poems.We treasure our greatest poetry, Brad Leithauser reminds us in these pages, “not for its what but its how.” In chapters on everything from iambic pentameter to how stanzas are put together to “rhyme and the way we really talk,” Leithauser takes a deep dive into the architecture of poetry. He explains how meter and rhyme work in fruitful opposition; how the weirdnesses of spelling in English are a boon to the poet; why an off rhyme will often succeed where a perfect rhyme would not; why Shakespeare and Frost can sound so similar, despite the centuries separating them. And Leithauser is just as likely to invoke Cole Porter, Stephen Sondheim, or Boz Scaggs as he is Chaucer or Milton, Bishop or Swenson, providing enlightening play-by-plays of their memorable lines.Here is both an indispensable learning tool and a delightful journey into the art of the poem—a chance for new poets and readers of poetry to grasp the fundamentals, and for experienced poets and readers to rediscover excellent works in all their fascinating detail.

Alfred A. Knopf Keats
Book SynopsisA dazzling new look into the short but intense, tragic life and remarkable work of John Keats, one of the greatest lyric poets of the English language, seen in a whole new light, not as the mythologized Victorian guileless nature-lover, but as the subversive, bawdy complex cynic whose life and poetry were lived and created on the edge.In this brief life, acclaimed biographer Lucasta Miller takes nine of Keats's best-known poems—Endymion; On First Looking into Chapman’s Homer; Ode to a Nightingale; To Autumn; Bright Star among them—and excavates how they came to be and what in Keats's life led to their creation. She writes of aspects of Keats's life that have been overlooked, and explores his imagination in the context of his world and experience, paying tribute to the unique quality of his mind. Miller, through Keats’s poetry, brilliantly resurrects and brings vividly to life, the man, the poet in all his complexity and spirit, l

Random House USA Inc The Complete English Poems Everymans Library
Book SynopsisThe magnificent Seventeenth-Century metaphysical poet John Donne created new forms of lyric, satire, erotic poems, and religious verse that left poetry in English forever changed. From his famously sensual love poems to his equally passionate and powerful Holy Sonnets, Donne's forceful language and ingenious wit encompass a remarkable range of tones. His poetry reflects every stage of his personal development, from the piratical Jack Donne who sailed with Sir Walter Ralegh against the Spaniards and spent riotous nights in the London streets, to the penitent John Donne who became Dean of St. Paul's and the most celebrated preacher of his age. His independence of view, compact manner of expressing conflicting moods, impassioned paradoxes, and outbreakes of cynicism and wry humor make his work particularly appealing to modern readers. This edition, compiled and introduced by C. A. Patrides, is recognized as the most complete and scholarly one

Random House USA Inc The Complete English Poems Everymans Library
Book Synopsis John Milton wrote poetry of such sublime beauty that he managed, through its universal influence, to transform the character of the English language. From his astonishing epic Paradise Lost, with its magnificent blank verse and mesmerizing characters, to the tragic brilliance of Samson Agonistes, Milton engaged the political and religious issues of his troubled times with subtlety and sophistication. His moving elegy “Lycidas,” written after the untimely drowning death of a friend, has been hailed as the greatest lyric poem in English. The classic shorter works, from the pastoral poems “L’Allegro” and “Il Penseroso” to the enchanting masque Comus, to the intensely personal sonnets, share the grandeur and vitality of his epics; all serve as continual reminders of the heights the human imagination can achieve. With an introduction by Gordon Campbell.

Random House USA Inc Collected Poems Vintage International
Book SynopsisBetween 1927 and his death in 1973, W. H. Auden endowed poetry in the English language with a new face. Or rather, with several faces, since his work ranged from the political to the religious, from the urbane to the pastoral, from the mandarin to the invigoratingly plain-spoken.This collection presents all the poems Auden wished to preserve, in the texts that received his final approval. It includes the full contents of his previous collected editions along with all the later volumes of his shorter poems. Together, these works display the astonishing range of Auden's voice and the breadth of his concerns, his deep knowledge of the traditions he inherited, and his ability to recast those traditions in modern times.

It has a great deal to offer not only scholars of French literature, but to anyone interested in the complex intersections between literature and history. -- Alison James Modern Philology 2009 At a time when we are more than ever encouraged to distinguish between good guys and bad guys, it is refreshing to read a work that illustrates the impossibility of such clear-cut distinctions. -- Nicole Asquith Substance 2009 One of the most solidly critically informed works in the field. -- Michael R.

Johns Hopkins University Press Poets on Prozac Mental Illness Treatment and the
Book SynopsisShatters the notion that madness fuels creativity. This work features sixteen essays that address questions such as: Does emotional distress inspire great work? Is artistry enhanced or diminished by mental illness? What effect does substance abuse have on esthetic vision? Do psychoactive medications impinge on ingenuity?Trade ReviewA fascinating collection of 16 essays, as insightful as they are compulsively readable. Publishers Weekly (starred review) 2008 All agree that the sick brain often spells catastrophe for the creative mind. New York Times 2008 The book shows that good poets also write vigorous, engaging prose. Richard Berlin has done a marvelous job of showing us how ordinary poets are; the selected poets have shown us that mental illness shares with other experiences a capacity to reveal our humanity. Metapsychology 2008 At once instructive and poignant, Poets on Prozac constitutes an important addition to the literature on creativity and mental illness... An illuminating read both for mental health professionals who work with creative people and for artists who are contemplating treatment options. New England Journal of Medicine 2008 This book belongs on the shelves of all therapists who treat women and men who immerse themselves in creative writing or any other fine art. Dr. Berlin's pithy introduction provides a useful summary of the relationship between creativity and emotional disorder. The 16 essays and the poetic excerpts that bolster them share the virtues of being heartfelt, accessible, and brief. They can be read by highly literate women and men, even those in the midst of an emotional maelstrom. American Journal of Psychiatry 2008 Each essayist (and the book as a whole) certainly has an audience, most faithfully in poets. -- Roxanna Font Bellevue Literary Review 2008 This collection of brilliant essays does not resolve the relative contribution that medication (ranging from SSRIs to orthomolecular treatment) makes to the resolution of a creative person's fallow periods and blocks. Like the creative process itself, the picture that emerges is idiosyncratic and, perhaps, understood better as an appreciation than as analysis. Choice The book's claim to uniqueness lies chiefly in the character of the authors and the poetry with which they express their feelings. Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease 2009 In providing these poets with a voice in prose, Richard M. Berlin, himself both a healer and an artist, provides telling insights into both mental illness and the creative process. -- Harvey Fenigsohn Lamar Soutter Library Book Reviews 2008 Endlessly fascinating. -- Brooke Allen Hudson Review 2008 This collection of essays would be particularly useful to psychiatrists who have patients from the creative world of literature but I believe also from music, fine art or theatre. British Journal of Psychiatry 2009 Through the words of poets, this book celebrates the idea that health is not an end point-and that healing is a lifelong process. -- Dagan Coppock, MD Psychiatric Times 2009Table of ContentsList of Contributors AcknowledgmentsIntroductions, Richard M.

Johns Hopkins University Press The Return of Ulysses A Cultural History of
Book SynopsisAccessibly written and timely, The Return of Ulysses establishes the Odyssey as the founding text of Western Civilization and offers a major contribution to the study of Homer's epic poem, as well as modern insight into its cultural reception and continuing imprint on society.Trade ReviewBritish scholar Edith Hall takes 15 aspects of the Odyssey and traces their permutations from ancient times to today. The result is engrossing and enlightening. Author Magazine 2008 Hall is the optimistic traveller par excellence and leads us on a stimulating journey, roving far and wide through both time and space in pursuit of her hero. Times Higher Education Supplement 2008 [Hall] fills her pages with sharp and often surprising observations about the 'Odyssey' and its spiritual children. She devotes much attention to film ('The Searchers,' 'The Natural,' 'Cold Mountain' and many others), but even reflected in this modern medium, she realizes, the 'Odyssey' owes a measure of its allure to its sheer, echoing antiquity. Reading her good-humored and accessible book is like conversing across the ages. New York Times Book Review 2008 Hall's study of the Odyssey is thorough, entertaining and well referenced. She offers many ways for the reader to relate Homer's epic to more modern works of literature, art and film, thus bridging the gap between old and new. Suite101.com The book sparkles with the excitement... Times Literary Supplement 2008 The Return of Ulysses is a sweeping tour of almost all one could wish to demonstrate about the spell of Homer. -- Zbigniew Janowski First Things 2008 A true cultural treat awaits readers with ears and eyes attuned to both the higher and lower reaches of culture and in want of expert crosscultural, socioliterary criticism. Nostalgia may not generally be what it used to be, but Professor Hall has made a herculean stab at convincing us that there can be exceptions. Anglo-Hellenic Review 2009 Edith Hall takes us on a tour of global culture high and low, mostly from the last hundred years, to demonstrate how Homer's great poem continues to permeate our sensibility and imagination. She is an informative and enthusiastic guide. London Review of Books 2009 Though conversant with Homeric scholarship and the imperatives of postmodern literary criticism, Hall never burdens her prose with theoretic jargon... A goldmine of fascinating information on the persistence of thematic archetypes first formulated in Homer's great epic. Highly recommended. Choice 2009 An extraordinary wide-ranging, clearly written, instructive, and engaging survey of the cultural reception of the poem from antiquity to the early twenty-first century. -- Seth L. Schein New England Classical Journal 2009 The scope of the book is breathtaking and Hall, Odysseus-like, deftly navigates across the rich landscape she unfolds before us, guiding us through its landmarks with a style that is clear, engaging, and at times outright funny. -- Silvia Montiglio Classical World 2010 A monumental overlook at the Homerian classic from all angles and a work which should keep the brain busy through just about any outer circumstance. -- Marilis Hornridge Lincoln Country News [Damariscotta, Maine] 2010Table of ContentsAcknowledgmentsPart I: Generic Mutations1.
