  • Title Page of Her First Collection of Poems, the Close Chaplet (1926), Following Their Divorce in 1925
    ! 1! “Hospitality to Words”: Laura Riding’s American Inheritance and Inheritors Philip John Lansdell Rowland Royal Holloway, University of London Submitted for the Degree of PhD ! 3! Abstract This thesis situates the work of Laura Riding in an American tradition of “hospitality to words” extending from Emerson and Emily Dickinson through Gertrude Stein to John Ashbery and contemporary language-oriented writing. The theme is introduced in terms of her linguistic and spiritual ideal of home as a place of truthful speaking, related in turn to her identity as an American writer who renounced the craft of poetry in mid-career. First, Riding’s poetry is “hospitable” in ways akin to Dickinson’s, broadly characterized by Riding’s term, “linguistic intimateness.” There are similarities in their word-conjunctions and styles of poetic argument, as well as their ideas of poetry as “house of possibility” and spiritual home. Riding’s work is then compared with that of her older friend of the late 1920s, Gertrude Stein. The chapter details the shift in Riding’s critical view of Stein; then focuses on the similarly “homely” characteristics of their prose writing and poetics, with particular reference made to Riding’s “Steinian” poems. The central chapters clarify Riding’s conception of truth and related questions of authority, history and responsibility. Chapter 4 explains her poetic vision of “the end of the world” as the introduction to a new world and potentially a new home, and chapter 5 extends the account to include her post-poetic work, The Telling compared to her earlier, collaborative The World and Ourselves.

  • WRITING YOUR FAMILY HISTORY a Guideline for Your Project
    WRITING YOUR FAMILY HISTORY A Guideline for Your Project Old Buncombe County Genealogical Society P.O. Box 2122, Asheville, NC 28802 •828-253-1894 •www.obcgs.com If you are interested in genealogy and have conducted even the shortest of searches for a relative, you might have thought about how to organize the results into a useful format. One could write a report, an article for a journal or even set up a notebook to share with others, but a book might seem daunting. Many genealogists dream about writing a book on their family research, but do not know where to start. In 2012, OBCGS organized a working group to explore the steps needed to write a family history book. The group was able to organize their findings and put them all in one place to share with our members. The result is this guideline, a summary of the steps necessary to get your research ready for printing. I. THE ORGANIZING PROCESS – success is easier when you do some planning up front. a. Choose the Format – cookbook, photo album, genealogy narrative, etc. b. Choose the Scope – one family line descending from a distant ancestor; the grandparent’s story; the military service of a Revolutionary War soldier in the family including his family genealogy; etc. c. Choose a Plot or Theme – one way to make the book more interesting to a broader audience is to use a plot or theme throughout. Suggestions might be their immigration story; life after slavery; survival during the Great Depression; etc. d. Research the Time and Place – this provides more narrative for the reader and rounds out the family members’ experience so the reader understands what they went through to raise their family and survive.

  • Mccann Lit Review
    Olentangy Local School District Literature Selection Review Teacher: Shachter / Boone / Overbeck /Boden School: Liberty High School Book Title: Let the Great World Spin Genre: Literary Fiction Author: Colum McCann Pages: 400 Publisher: Random House Copyright: December 2009 In a brief rationale, please provide the following information relative to the book you would like added to the school’s book collection for classroom use. You may attach additional pages as needed. Book Summary and summary citation: (suggested resources include book flap summaries, review summaries from publisher, book vendors, etc.) In the dawning light of a late-summer morning, the people of lower Manhattan stand hushed, staring up in disbelief at the Twin Towers. It is August 1974, and a mysterious tightrope walker is running, dancing, leaping between the towers, suspended a quarter mile above the ground. In the streets below, a slew of ordinary lives become extraordinary in bestselling novelist Colum McCann’s stunningly intricate portrait of a city and its people. Let the Great World Spin is the critically acclaimed author’s most ambitious novel yet: a dazzlingly rich vision of the pain, loveliness, mystery, and promise of New York City in the 1970s. Corrigan, a radical young Irish monk, struggles with his own demons as he lives among the prostitutes in the middle of the burning Bronx. A group of mothers gather in a Park Avenue apartment to mourn their sons who died in Vietnam, only to discover just how much divides them even in grief. A young artist finds herself at the scene of a hit-and-run that sends her own life careening sideways.

  • WINTER 2018 Rainer Maria Rilke Poems from the Book of Hours
    Alexander Kluge Temple of the Scapegoat: Opera Stories • Translated from the German by Isabel Cole and Donna Stonecipher • With photographs Revolving around the opera, these tales are an “archaeological excavation of the slag-heaps of our collective existence” (W. G. Sebald) Combining fact and fiction, each of the one hundred and two tales of Al- exander Kluge’s Temple of the Scapegoat (dotted with photos of famous PBK NDP 1395 operas and their stars) compresses a lifetime of feeling and thought: Kluge is deeply engaged with the opera and an inventive wellspring of narrative FICTION JANUARY notions. The titles of his stories suggest his many turns of mind: “Total Com- mitment,” “Freedom,” “Reality Outrivals Theater,” “The Correct Slowing-Down 5 X 8" 288pp at the Transitional Point Between Terror and an Inkling of Freedom,” “A Crucial Character (Among Persons None of Whom Are Who They Think They Are),” ISBN 978-0-8112-2748-3 and “Deadly Vocal Power vs. Generosity in Opera.” An opera, Kluge says, is a blast furnace of the soul, telling of the great singer Leonard Warren who died EBK 978-0-8112-2749-0 onstage, having literally sung his heart out. Kluge introduces a Tibetan scholar who realizes that opera “is about comprehension and passion. The two never 36 CQ TERRITORY W go together. Passion overwhelms comprehension.

  • Fictions of the Self in Aleksandar Hemon's the Lazarus Project
    Brno Studies in English Volume 37, No. 2, 2011 ISSN 0524-6881 DOI: 10.5817/BSE2011-2-14 Wendy Ward Does Autobiography Matter?: Fictions of the Self in Aleksandar Hemon’s The Lazarus Project Abstract In this article, I examine Bosnian writer Aleksandar Hemon’s relationship to and intervention in life-writing. Hemon’s fiction provides rich terrain for exploring the key shifts and obstacles facing the genre(s) at present by crossing national as well as aesthetic borders. In doing so, I trace his first autobiographical gestures in his earlier fiction against his recent insistence that his stories are “antibio- graphical” since they are the very “antimatter to the matter of my life. They con- tain what did not happen to me” – thus, an alternate, unrestrained space in which Hemon can flesh out multiple fictional selves. With his novel,The Lazarus Pro- ject, he delivers, in essence, a fictional biography on two levels: a main narrator (Brik) who enacts the author’s own exodus but also traces and retells an im- migrant stranger’s past (Lazarus) in order to work through his present conflicts, anger and sadness. The novel’s tensions between biography, autobiography and photography emerge from what Hemon calls a “conditional Americanness” that has overtaken the American Dream. Hemon employs photographic imagery not only to refute given notions of history and archive but also to craft a narrative imagination that builds on late German writer W. G. Sebald’s own transgressions within (auto)biographical writing, yet targets and questions more American and cross-cultural identity categories. Key words Autobiography; photography; Aleksandar Hemon; intermediality; immigrant identity; W.

  • Harry Mathews Interview Final
    loggernaut reading series – summer 2012 Harry Mathews: A Meal Should Last Forever Harry Mathews has written some of the most formally inventive, and perversely moving, American fiction and poetry of the last 50 years. As the American standard-bearer for the otherwise predominantly European OuLiPo, his influence can be felt throughout the cultural sphere. He splits his time between France and Key West, where we conducted this interview last April. Mathews has increasingly seemed to me a sage arbiter not only of all things literary, but also of living well. It made sense, therefore, to ask him a few questions about food and wine and their relationship to literature, all of which I have enjoyed heartily in his presence. This conversation between Mathews, the Key-West-based poet and publisher Arlo Haskell, and myself took place over dinner at the erstwhile Key West Italian restaurant Antonia's. We were joined by Marie Chaix, Mathews's wife, and Ashley Kamen, who by the time you read this will have become Haskell's. -Stuart Krimko Harry Mathews: Is the recorder on now? Arlo Haskell: It is, but we'll pretend like it's not. HM: You've already asked me an extremely recordable question. Stuart Krimko: It was really just an appetizer question. I'd asked you whether anyone had asked you in particular about the ways in which food and wine play into your work. HM: One basic thing is that I don't drink whiskey. I love it, but I don't drink it so much anymore. T.S. Eliot said that he often had a glass or two of whiskey to get the creative juices flowing, which was amazing, coming from him, and quite understandable.

[57705] $300 A classic from the Great Depression and one of the finest examples of a 'wordless novel'. This work con- sists of 122 linocuts similar in style to the work of Frans Masereel or early Lynd Ward. Patri was inspired by the stock market crash of 1929 to create something that would help to unify (and unionize) the working classes, both "white-" and "blue-collar". He began work on White Collar in 1930 and finally completed the book ten years later. "White Collar was to be my contribution to, what I believed then, an indispensable understanding of the necessity of unity among all American workers and voters. I was not a writer, so illustrations in sequence were I thought the answer. "I had a printing press and lots of linoleum to use for linoleum cuts, so I set to work the idea of doing the entire job myself. I was young, naive and in a hurry, but I soon discovered that a book, a story, an ideal, each is a slow process, even with some help from the family.
