"A work of enormous brilliance."--Encounter. "The richness and variety of these essays is truly remarkable."--Listener. Though published independently over many years, each of these penetrating essays asks how a poet's words reveal "the force of poetry"--that force, in Dr. Johnson's words, "which calls new powers into being, which embodies sentiment, and animates matter." The poets treated here range from John Gower to Robert Lowell, and include Marvell, Milton, Johnson, Wordsworth, Philip Larkin, and Geoffrey Hill. Ricks has also added four essays on general topics: on cliches, on lies, on misquotations, and on American literature in its relation to the transitory. The Force of Poetry reveals the quality of Ricks's criticism that W.H. Auden responded to when he described him as "exactly the kind of critic every poet dreams of finding."

  • Christopher Ricks
    CHRISTOPHER RICKS Christopher Ricks has been an officer in the Green Howards, a scholar of Balliol, a Fellow of Worcester, Professor of English at Bristol, King Edward VII Professor at Cambridge, and is now Warren Professor of Humanities at Boston University, Co- Director of its Editorial Institute, and a Fellow of the British Academy. He is a scholar, critic and teacher of enormous distinction, who has a uniquely subtle critical imagination, a graceful, sensitive and stringent intelligence, which, allied with his profound scholarship, makes him an unrivalled lecturer. A lecture by Christopher Ricks is always an exciting, inspiring event. His review of Seamus Heaney’s Death of a Naturalist in the New Statesman helped to launch Heaney’s career, and his review of Philip Larkin’s The Whitsun Weddings in the New York Review of Books helped to win a North American readership for Larkin’s poems. He has written with great insight and intelligence about Paul Muldoon in a compelling essay on Andrew Marvell in The Force of Poetry, and as his recent study of Bob Dylan, Dylan’s Visions of Sin, shows he is keenly aware of popular culture. His critical study, Milton’s Grand Style (1963) challenged the surprisingly successful attempt of Eliot and Leavis to downgrade Milton’s poetry, and initiated the critical and scholarly reclaiming of Milton’s work which has taken place over the last four decades. He has also published Tennyson (1972), Keats and Embarrassment (1974), The Force of Poetry (1984), T.S. Eliot and Prejudice (1988), Allusion to the Poets (2002), Dylan’s Visions of Sin (2003).He has published two anthologies: The New Oxford Book of Victorian Verse (1987) and The Oxford Book of English Verse (1999).

  • I Organise the Teaching of English at Queen's, As Well As Teaching the Literature Courses at the Modern End of the Syllabus
    Congratulations on being offered a place at Queen's! I organise the teaching of English at Queen's, as well as teaching the literature courses at the modern end of the syllabus. Although you will be taught by a variety of tutors with different specialisms during your time at Oxford, I’ll be advising you and organising your English tutorials for you throughout the course. You’ll be studying four papers in English in the first year: Introduction to English Language and Literature (Paper 1), Early Medieval Literature, 650-1350 (Paper 2), Literature in English, 1830-1910 (Paper 3), and Literature in English, 1910 to the present day (Paper 4). You will study Paper 3 in Michaelmas (autumn) term, and Paper 4 in Hilary (spring). Classes for Paper 1 will run throughout the year, with the Language teaching taking place in Michaelmas, and teaching on the literary section of the paper following in Hilary. The Early Medieval paper will also be studied throughout the year. Reading lists are attached. Given the pressure of work in term, it is vital that you read the texts before you arrive in Oxford: you will not have time to read the ‘primary texts’ (the novels, plays and poetry) for the first time, as well as the ‘secondary texts’ (criticism on the primary material) that you’ll be researching too. Prioritise the texts for the first term (Paper 3 rather than Paper 4), ensuring the novels in particular are all read. A number of them are very substantial works, and students who don’t read them in advance find that they are seriously disadvantaged throughout the first term.

  • Christopher Ricks
    Judas! from Inside A Prune Hello again folks and welcome to issue 7. Seasons come and seasons go, years pass, decades even; a millennium date change has even happened by and still the not-to-be- called-never-ending-tour, never ending tour rolls by. When this issue hits your door- mats Bob will be mid-European tour. We at Judas! central are off to see two shows in Sweden and participate in the Stockholm convention - and hope to see as many of you there as possible - before the UK tour starts, a set of dates made much more attractive by the later additions of Hammersmith and Brixton. Ah, what memories to be rekindled and hopefully new ones to savour too. Inside these pages we bring you another collection of articles that we trust you will enjoy. Again we have aimed for a balance between well known names and newcomers or relative newcomers. This is something we can only maintain if new writers keep coming forward. There’s a plea elsewhere in these pages for photographs, the same goes for new material. A few out there (you know who you are) have started articles, please keep at them, the more new writing blood in the Dylan fanzine world the better as far as I am concerned. Issue Eight will hopefully feature one or more of these, plus articles by established names. Manuel Vardavas’s bootleg column will be back again (presuming something worthy of discussion is released, that is) and it is quite likely we will be taking an in- depth look at SACD and bootleg DVDs from a ‘technology-and-its-impact-on-your- Dylan-entertainment’ standpoint.

  • The End of the Word in Geoffrey Hill's Poetry
    CONSUMMATUM EST: THE END OF THE WORD IN GEOFFREY HILL’S POETRY THOMAS MICHAEL DOCHERTY PEMBROKE COLLEGE DECEMBER 2017 This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. CONSUMMATUM EST: THE END OF THE WORD IN GEOFFREY HILL’S POETRY THOMAS MICHAEL DOCHERTY This thesis intends to demonstrate that the idea of the end is a crucial motive of Geoffrey Hill’s poetry. It analyses the verbal and formal means by which Hill attempts to have his poems arrive at ends. The ends are, chiefly, the reconciliation of antagonists in word or thought; and the perfect articulation of the poem. The acknowledgement of failure to achieve such ends provides its own impetus to Hill’s work. The thesis examines in detail Hill’s puns, word-games, rhymes, syntaxes, and genres — their local reconciliations and entrenched contrarieties — and claims for them a significant place in the study of Hill’s poetry, particularly with regard to its sustained concern with ends and endings. Little has been written to date about Hill’s entire poetic corpus as represented in Broken Hierarchies (2013), due to the recentness of the work. This thesis draws from the earliest to the latest of Hill’s poetic writings; and makes extensive use of archival material. It steps beyond the ‘historical drama’ of language depicted in Matthew Sperling’s Visionary Philology (2014) and Alex Pestell’s Geoffrey Hill: The Drama of Reason (2016) and asserts that the drama in Hill’s poetry, seeking to transcend history, is constantly related to its end: not only its termination in time but its consummating purpose.

  • BOOK REVIEW TS Eliot:Poems Edited by Christopher Ricks and Jim
    BOOK REVIEW T. S. Eliot:Poems Edited by Christopher Ricks and Jim McCue Faber and Faber, 2015 ISBN Volume I: 978-0-571-23870-5. ISBN Volume 2: 978-1421420189 Each £40 Whisper Music “Complimenti, you bitch. I am wracked by the seven jealousies,” wrote Ezra Pound to T.S Eliot with his characteristic unhinged vigour, in a letter at the end of 1921. Pound’s compliments, and his jealousy, were earned by Eliot having finished a draft of ‘The Waste Land,’ which Pound called “the longest poem in the English Langwidge”. Anyone who picks up the new two volume, 2032 page edition of Eliot’s Poems, edited by Christopher Ricks and Jim McCue, without much acquaintance with the poet’s work might be forgiven for thinking that this was literally true, rather than just Pound being Pound. The monumentality of the new editions—with, in the first volume, almost a thousand pages of annotations to 346 pages of poems—does, however, show something of what Pound was getting at. The density of ‘The Waste Land’, its attempt to sustain a lyric compression without any transitions or expository material, much of which was ruthlessly excised by Pound himself, as well as its shoehorning in of almost the entirety of Western (and some of Eastern) civilisation, gives it the quality of a work many times its size. Cut into it almost anywhere and you will find the intensity of anthology excerpts: —yet when we came back late, from the hyacinth garden Your arms full, and your hair wet, I could not Speak, and my eyes failed, I was neither Living nor dead, and I knew nothing Looking into the heart of light, the silence.

  • T. S. Eliot and the Art of Collaboration Richard Badenhausen Frontmatter More Information
    Cambridge University Press 0521841232 - T. S. Eliot and the Art of Collaboration Richard Badenhausen Frontmatter More information T. S. ELIOT AND THE ART OF COLLABORATION Richard Badenhausen examines the crucial role that collaboration with other writers played in the development of T. S. Eliot’s works from the earliest poetry and unpublished prose to the late plays. He demonstrates Eliot’s dependence on collaboration in order to create, and also his struggle to accept the implications of the process. In case-studies of Eliot’s collaborations, Badenhausen reveals for the first time the complexities of Eliot’s theory and practice of collaboration. Examining a wide range of familiar and uncollected materials, Badenhausen explores Eliot’s social, psychological, and textual encounters with collaborators such as Ezra Pound, John Hayward, Martin Browne, and Vivien Eliot, among others. Finally, this study shows how Eliot’s later work increasingly accommodates his audience as he attempted to apply his theories of collaboration more broadly to social, cultural, and political concerns. RICHARD BADENHAUSEN is Professor and Kim T. Adamson Chair at Westminster College in Salt Lake City, Utah, where he also directs the Honors Program. He has previously taught at Marshall University. His essays on Eliot have appeared in several books and journals, most recently in Gender, Desire, and Sexuality in T. S. Eliot, edited by Cassandra Laity and Nancy Gish (Cambridge, 2004). This is his first book. © Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 0521841232 - T. S.

  • Job Description and Selection Criteria
    Job Description and Selection Criteria Post Professorship of Poetry Department/Faculty Faculty of English Language and Literature Division Humanities College All Souls, or another college by agreement Overview of the post The Professorship of Poetry is due to become vacant in Michaelmas Term 2015, when the current incumbent, Professor Sir Geoffrey Hill, reaches the end of his term of office. The appointment to re-fill the Chair will be made by election of Convocation in Trinity Term 2015. All members of Convocation are eligible to vote in the election1. The elected candidate will hold office for four years from 11 October 2015, the first day of Michaelmas Term 2015. The Professor of Poetry lectures were conceived in 1708, as a result of a bequest by Berkshire landowner Henry BirKhead, who believed ‘the reading of the ancient poets gave Keenness and polish to the minds of young men as well as to the advancement of more serious literature both sacred and human’. Matthew Arnold, uniquely elected twice to the Professorship (in 1857 and 1862), created the Professorship in its modern form: Arnold spoKe about literary matters of contemporary concern, and was the first Professor to deliver his lectures in English, as opposed to Latin. The appointee will be the 45th Professor of Poetry (a full list of holders of the Chair is available at http://www.ox.ac.uk/about/oxford-people/professor-of-poetry). The professorship is held in the Faculty of English Language and Literature. The Faculty of English at Oxford University is the largest department of English Literature in the UK and is widely recognised as one of the most eminent in the world.
