Sterling Publishers Pvt.Ltd Anthology of Poems: Hopes, Dreams & Wings
Book SynopsisTina (1964-2008), was a born rebel. Since childhood she never bound herself to any routine. Notwithstanding this, she was a lovely and brilliant child who cared for the world in her own special way. She had a mind of her own and developed her personality as per her own convictions. She was a vibrant and vivacious person blessed with eyes full of life and a smile replete with mischief. While her jokes sent people into splits, she sat poker faced enjoying the fact that she had made others laugh. Her happiness was so obvious and yet so illusive that we never realised her loneliness and associated pain. She was a girl who sold her joys to buy others'' grief. She was qualitatively different in style and professionally qualified as a fashion designer in the early eighties, her designs were in great demand in the foreign markets and she herself was the model for her own creations. Tina had hopes, dreams and the calibre to provide wings to her desire to scale the soaring heights she had set for herself. But God willed otherwise and recalled her to His abode, probably to assign her to another role befitting her magnificence.

Book SynopsisThis volume contains 11 new papers on Shakespeare written by members of the Department of English at the University of Copenhagen and other Danish universities plus a few international Shakespeare scholars.

Beside showing many different ways of thinking and writing about Shakespeare, the eleven articles fall into a pattern if read together in the order they are printed. The papers are varied and wide-ranging: contemporary contexts, tradition, language and style, performance, translation and modern appropriation.

Museum Tusculanum Press Tiden -- Tiderne: Digte på serbokroatisk og dansk
Book SynopsisText in Danish and Serbian. Poems by the Serbo-Croatian poet Alexander Sajin. Published in the author''s own translation in both Serbo-Croat and Danish. The book is a collection of prose-poetic texts which thematically depict images of the historical (European) and the individual (the fictitious narrator''s) time mostly from the 20th century. The book is published in its own translation in both Serbo-Croatian and Danish. Seeing the two languages side by side may already in itself be an encounter, our Indo-European encounter, from the time when the Germanic and Slavic tribes used the same words for mother, milk and night. We have now forgotten it after all the thousands of years that have gone by and will no longer admit to our primordial native language hidden beneath the roots of the words, and knowledge of our fraternity is presumed forever lost ... were it not that there is a place in our lives whence we so plainly can see each other: in the moment of death. This is why most of the historical personae of the book tell the story of their lives on the threshold between life and death, as death is the only meeting place we always have left. It always comes off.

University Press of Southern Denmark Ut Pictura Poesis Tradition & English
Book SynopsisThe parallel between poetry and painting harks back to Antiquity. It seemed obvious because both arts appeal to the intellect as well as the eye. In his Ars poetica (approx. 20 b.C.), Horace gave a terse formulation to the parallel: ut pictura poesis. Later critics dislodged what was in Horace just an obiter dictum, from its context, which in Horace referred to the appropriate distance of a beholder/reader from a picture/text. In English literature, the Neo-Classical cult of the Ancients straddling the year 1700 produced a spate of translations of Horace''s Ars poetica, and the translators'' accompanying comments suggest a wide range of idiosyncratic applications of the Latin poet''s maxim. One form of poetical expression of the parallel particularly favoured by English Neo-Classical poets was landscape description. However, landscapes'' had to fight opposition on two fronts, viz. the rigid Neo-Classical canon, and the prevalent mould of the description of outdoor scenery as seen in eg pastorals. This book traces the development of the maxim ut pictura poesis from a topos to a genre, viz. the Neo-Classical landscape poem. The typical poem belonging to that genre, which is given a detailed analysis in the pages of this book, contains a number of stock ingredients that meet the eyes of a beholder, who is also the narrator. Underneath the scene is a low-key social analogy, an intimation of a virtually unspoilt utopian society. At the same time, an undertone of anxiety for the preservation of this summum bonum is perceptible, and in James Thomson''s landscapes, dating from the 1720s, the reader feels the approach of the attitude to the items of natura naturata that we find in Wordsworth and Keats.

University Press of Southern Denmark Easter Flower! What Would You Here?: Anthology of
Book SynopsisThere are creative writers and thinkers who are the origin of words and expressions that have a long life in history. One of them is Nikolai Frederik Severin Grundtvig (1783-1872). He is perhaps best known internationally for his modern ideas about lifelong learning and a completely new type of school -- the folk high school for young people as well as adults -- that was to give people the possibility of developing freely and using their abilities for the benefit of their national community. In this book we feature a selection of his well-known hymns and songs. They are among the most powerful of his entire work marked by an artistic breadth that is immediately sensed. The present English translations -- the work of the poet and translator John Irons, in collaboration with the poet Klaus Høeck -- can and should be sung at everyday gatherings of people wishing to express themselves about what is most important in human existence: faith, hope and love.
