The Plural of Us: Poetry and Community in Auden and Others
ISBN: 9780691172811 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Plural of Us is the first book to focus on the poet's use of the first-person plural voice--poetry's "we." Closely exploring the work of W. H. Auden, Bonnie Costello uncovers the trove of thought and feeling carried in this small word. While lyric has long been associated with inwardness and a voice saying "I," "we" has hardly been noticed, even though it has appeared throughout the history of poetry. Reading for this pronoun in its variety and ambiguity, Costello explores the communal function of poetry--the reasons, risks, and rewards of the first-person plural. Costello...

Shifting Ground: Reinventing Landscape in Modern American Poetry
ISBN: 9780674008946 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Just as the look of the American landscape has changed since the 19th century, so has our idea of landscape, with a contemplation of wild nature giving way to an understanding of Nature as a human construction. Here Bonnie Costello reads six 20th-century American poets who have reflected and shaped this transformation and in the process renovated landscape by drawing new images from the natural world and creating new forms for imagining the earth and our relation to it. Showing how these poets' landscapes respond to the sense of constant change, and to the disruption and acceleration of life...

Planets on Tables
ISBN: 9780801446139 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Poets have long been drawn to the images and techniques of still life. Artists and poets alike present intimate worlds where time is suspended in the play of form and color and where history disappears amid everyday things. The genre of still life with its focus on the domestic sphere seemed to some a retreat from the political and economic pressures of the last century. Yet many American artists and writers found in the arrangement of local objects a way to connect the individual to larger public concerns. Indeed, the debates over still life reveal just what is at stake in the long-standing...

ISBN: 9780141181202 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 624 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Marianne Moore's correspondence makes up the largest and most broadly significant collection of any modern poet.

At the height of her celebrity, she would occasionally write...
