  • Final Thesis Phil Isherwood
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by University of Bolton Institutional Repository (UBIR) Numinous Connections: Poetry in the Hospice Philip Isherwood A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of Bolton for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy January 2015 Numinous Connections - Poetry in the Hospice - Philip Isherwood A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of Bolton for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Philip Isherwood Numinous Connections: Poetry in the Hospice Abstract This thesis offers a distinctive approach to writing poetry which has been developed within the context of the author’s/researcher’s observations of, and participation in, end of life care. It will be argued that poetry can have a unique role in supporting patients within a hospice setting. It emerges that there may be a further role of the poem as ‘memorial art’. The practical base to the research has been writing poetry based on conversations with, and the creative artwork of, hospice patients throughout a period of over three years. These working methods have enabled the author to produce a substantial collection of poetry, presented at the start of the thesis, as the prime evidence of the value of the approach. In this research context the ‘numinous’ is interpreted from its extended definition as relating to transcendence, wonder and otherness. Particular components of the writing practice have formed a ‘numinous poetics’. The numinous as a focus in this research has emerged through careful and scholarly reading and reflection as part of the author’s response to the perceived qualities and value of the poems as they were written.

  • Carol Ann Duffy
    NCTE Verse - Carol Ann Duffy mail.google.com/mail/u/1 Poet of the Day: Carol Ann Duffy 1/5 Carol Ann Duffy, born in 1955, became the first female poet laureate of Britain in 2009. She often explores the perspectives of the voiceless women of history, mythology, and fairy tales as well as those on the fringes of society in her dramatic monologues. Duffy is most well-known for her collections Standing Female Nude (1985) and The World’s Wife (1999). She has also written plays and poetry for children. CC image “Carol Ann Duffy 8 Nov 2013 5” courtesy of Steel Wool on Flickr under a CC BY-NC-ND 2.0 license. This poet belongs in our classrooms because… she explores the voices of those who have traditionally been silenced. Her poetry uses humor and emotion with simple language that hits us in the gut with its truth. It’s poetry that students can understand quickly but can also explore at length, uncovering its layers and relating to the speakers and their experiences. A Poem by Carol Ann Duffy Warming Her Pearls for Judith Radstone Next to my own skin, her pearls. My mistress bids me wear them, warm them, until evening when I'll brush her hair. At six, I place them round her cool, white throat. All day I think of her, 2/5 resting in the Yellow Room, contemplating silk or taffeta, which gown tonight? She fans herself whilst I work willingly, my slow heat entering each pearl. Slack on my neck, her rope.

The influence and inspiration of other haiku poets, in Britain and, indeed, around the world, has been an immense asset. They have loaned me much essential reading material, walked with me on desolate mountain-tops, and in sharing their enthusiasm they have brought joy to my life.

  • The Forties: a Doctorate in Creative and Critical Writing
    The Forties: A Doctorate in Creative and Critical Writing Todd Swift Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the degree of PhD University of East Anglia Faculty of Humanities School of Literature and Creative Writing August, 2011 © This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived therefrom must be in accordance with current UK copyright law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. ABSTRACT Todd Swift, 2011, ‗The Forties: A Doctorate in Creative and Critical Writing‘ This work is in two parts: a portfolio of creative writing (poetry), preceded by a critical thesis. In the critical aspect of my dissertation I contest a dominant account of poetic creation and influence in the period 1938–1954, and consider a third line of influence that arose in post-war British poetry. The methodology follows in the footsteps of Other Traditions by John Ashbery: literary criticism by a practitioner. My critical writing complements my poetry collection, whose various styles and registers relate to the poetic influences discussed. My first three chapters develop the argument as follows: Chapter One considers ideas of ‗style‘ and ‗poetic style‘. Chapter Two narrows in on the idea of ‗period style‘ in poetry and turns more specifically into a discussion of the Forties Style in Poetry. Chapter Three looks directly at the period under question, the Forties, and its key poet, Dylan Thomas, as read by critics. Chapter Four discusses F.T. Prince, a major poet much overlooked.

  • Crafts of World Literature Faculty of English, Oxford 28-30 September 2012
    CRAFTS OF WORLD LITERATURE FACULTY OF ENGLISH, OXFORD 28-30 SEPTEMBER 2012 ABSTRACTS FOR PANEL SESSIONS 1. Short Story Shital Pravinchandra (Yale): ‘World Literature and the Short Story’ This paper engages with Moretti’s hypotheses about world literature in order to argue that the excessive attention he bestows upon the novel effectively reproduces the ‘one but unequal’ status of the world literary system. My claim is that an adequate theorization of world literature requires the literary critic to understand that unless we fail to take notice of the problem of literary genre the problem of world literature will only be further compounded. My paper turns to an entirely different genre — the short story — on the grounds that this is a necessary shift in focus that both takes into account the actual literary production of the global south and showcases the urgent need for literary critical attention to genre, both in postcolonial studies and in studies of world literature. Although the short story largely remains, to this day, as F. Odun Balogun puts it when discussing the case of the African short story, “a literature in search of critics” my paper looks at concrete instances of short story criticism and explores the shortcomings of the predominant models for understanding world literature, which rely heavily on the novel. The short story, I suggest, might offer a different yardstick with which to approach world literary production. Shital Pravinchandra is Assistant Professor of English at Yale University. She is currently working on a monograph entitled Same Difference: Literature and the Postcolony in the Age of Biotechnology, which explores the transformations that biotechnology has wrought on postcolonial studies.

  • Robin Morrow, AM
    The International Board on Books for Young People (IBBY) is a non-profit organisation which represents an international network of people from all over the world committed to bringing books and children together. NEWSLETTER No 32 February, 2017 President’s Letter Dear members and supporters of IBBY Australia The office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) was created in 1950, in the aftermath of World War II when millions of people had fled or lost their homes. (And Australia was quick to sign up as a state party to the Refugee Convention). IBBY was founded very soon after, in 1953. These were two of the organisations which arose at that time to work cooperatively, across national borders, to build a better world. Now we see many countries and leaders retreating from transnational policies. The president of the US has banned entry for people from a list of countries, in clear breach of the Geneva Convention. Australia has made savage cuts to its foreign aid budget. Millions of people, including many children, are refugees. It is easy to lose heart, and feel powerless in the face of such challenges. IBBY continues to advocate for the right of every child to be a reader, and to work to implement this through the IBBY Fund for Children in Crisis. In this newsletter are stories to inspire us, of a bilingual picture book club in Germany, and of a French project with wordless books, linked to IBBY Italia’s Silent Books: Final Destination Lampedusa. Go to the revamped website www.ibby.org to find out more of how IBBY combines idealism with practical efforts to bring quality books to children everywhere.
