The Reformation of the Subject: Spenser, Milton, and the English Protestant Epic
ISBN: 9780521034906 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Reformation iconoclasts viewed verbal images with the same distrust and aversion as visual images, because they too were capable of shaping and thus waylaying the human imagination; and yet the Reformation also produced the defining monuments of English epic. In an extended analysis, both lucid and theoretically sophisticated, Linda Gregerson traces the contradictory cultural roots of The Faerie Queene and Paradise Lost, illuminating the ideological, political, and gender conflicts that Spenser and Milton confronted as they transformed the epic poem into an instrument for the reformation of...

Magnetic North
ISBN: 9780547085760 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) The New Yorker has written, "Gregerson's rich aesthetic allows her best poems to resonate metaphysically." In this new volume, Linda Gregerson makes clearer than ever her passionate premise that the metaphysical only and always derives from our profound embeddedness in physical reality.
From subjects as diverse as the Nazi occupation of Poland and a breakthrough discovery in cell biology, Gregerson seeks to distill "the shape of the question," the tenuous connection between knowing and suffering, between the brightness of the body and the shadows of the mind. "Choose any angle you... The New Yorker has written, "Gregerson's rich aesthetic allows her best poems to resonate metaphysically." In this new volume, Linda Gregerson makes c...

Negative Capability: Contemporary American Poetry
ISBN: 9780472067770 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) In a wide-ranging and fiercely intelligent series of readings, Linda Gregerson presents an eloquent overview of the contemporary American lyric. This lyric is distinguished, she argues, not only by its unprecedented variety and abundance, but by its persistent and supple engagement with form. In detailed examinations of work by John Ashbery, Mark Strand, Louis Gluck, James Schuyler, Muriel Rukeyser, C. K. Williams, Rita Dove, Philip Levine, Heather McHugh, William Meredith, John Hollander, and a host of other recent and contemporary poets, Gregerson documents the depth and richness of...

Waterborne: Poems
ISBN: 9780618382026 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) A stirring, brilliantly crafted collection, Linda Gregerson's third volume of poetry examines mortality in all its beauty and horror. Fluently rendered in Gregerson's distinctive three-line stanzas, these poems explore subjects from autism to genealogy to ecology. Their occasions are diverse -- a barn fire, a wounded deer, a child's determined struggle with a bicycle -- but their instinct is always to wrest from the impure world a vernacular of praise.

Empires of God: Religious Encounters in the Early Modern Atlantic
ISBN: 9780812222609 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Religion and empire were inseparable forces in the early modern Atlantic world. Religious passions and conflicts drove much of the expansionist energy of post-Reformation Europe, providing both a rationale and a practical mode of organizing the dispersal and resettlement of hundreds of thousands of people from the Old World to the New World. Exhortations to conquer new peoples were the lingua franca of Western imperialism, and men like the mystically inclined Christopher Columbus were genuinely inspired to risk their lives and their fortunes to bring the gospel to the Americas. And in the... Religion and empire were inseparable forces in the early modern Atlantic world. Religious passions and conflicts drove much of the expansionist ene... |

The Woman Who Died in Her Sleep
ISBN: 9780395822890 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This second book of poems by a powerful, compassionate, and fiercely intelligent poet bravely explores the ways in which we humans encounter mortality: the assaults of disease and bodily harm, the cruel inequities of material and psychic well-being, domestic treachery, self-slaughter, failures of mind. Linda Gregerson's work emphasizes the resourcefulness of the human spirit, the intelligence of the body, the abundant beauty of the created world. What readers will love about these poems - many of them centered on young children - is the way they combine straightforwardness and complexity....
