ISBN: 9780915924271 / Angielski / Miękka / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Structure & Surprise: Engaging Poetic Turns offers a road map for analyzing poetry through examination of poems' structure, rather than their forms or genres. Michael Theune's breakthrough concept encourages students, teachers, and writers to use structure as a tool to see the fundamental affinities between strikingly different kinds of poetry and radically different literary eras. The book includes examination of the mid-course turn and the elegy, as well as the ironic, concessional, emblem, and retrospective-prospective structures, among others. In addition, 14 contemporary poets provide an...

ISBN: 9780393333046 / Angielski / Miękka / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The limerick, one of the oldest and most challenging of verse forms, has traditionally been the plaything of Oxford dons, American academicians, and a sprinkling of men of wit. Historian Ray Allen Billington worked on his own collection for fifty years. Here is the cream of that collection--original and classical limericks, irreverent, spicy, funny, and, of course, suggestive.

The Blessing of Rain and Other Poems
ISBN: 9781434331618 / Angielski / Miękka / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The poetry in this collection is informed by the memory of ancestors and is motivated as well by my personal struggle to define a vision of life. The poems are arranged loosely into five categories: Ancestors and Memory, Passages, The Natural World, The Spiritual Life, and Love and Other Essences. The classification is loose, because each piece is part of the greater story and may play more than one such role in the telling. This work is very personal, but I share it, because this is the reason why we come to the world, to share, just in the event a word we make may create a beauty somewhere...

Iracema
ISBN: 9780195115482 / Angielski / Miękka / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Jose de Alencar's prose-poem Iracema, first published in 1865, is a classic of Brazilian literature--perhaps the most widely-known piece of fiction within Brazil, and the most widely-read of Alencar;s many works. Set in the sixteenth century, it is an extremely romantic portrayal of a doomed live between a Portuguese soldier and an Indian maiden. Iracema reflects the gingerly way that mid-nineteenth century Brazil dealt with race mixture and multicultural experience. Precisely because of its nineteenth-century romanticism, Iracema strongly contributed to a Brazilian sense of...

Eternal Pollution of a Dented Mind
ISBN: 9781847474377 / Angielski / Miękka / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Description "I am not a poet I just write. These pieces are a collection of my musings and it is the first time that I am publishing my writing without drawings, photos or paintings to accompany the words. This is very scary since I see myself primarily as an artist but these pieces are about the soul, life, s**t, rubbish, beauty, love, hate, mental confusion, light and darkness. You might wonder if they are autobiographical but I will remain mute regarding that detail since I have a fervent imagination and what is truth anyway? Something very dubious if you ask me. Just read... Description "I am not a poet I just write. These pieces are a collection of my musings and it is the first time that I am publishing my writing ... |

Chicano Poetics: Heterotexts and Hybridities
ISBN: 9780521573702 / Angielski / Twarda / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Chicano Poetics: Heterotexts and Hybridities examines the crossing of literary and social forces that forms the context for being Chicano. Heterotextual poetics reveals how a poetry of the cross can influence identity, in readings ranging from the poetry of gender and race by Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz to that of the fragmentary, postmodern subject of Juan Felipe Herrara. Heterotextuality is the medium in which xicanismo is articulated and comes to be a hybrid subject of textual difference.
