    N EW B OOKS 2 0 1 1 Chinua Achebe John Ashbery Sujata Bhatt Eavan Boland Joseph Brodsky Paul Celan Inger Christensen Gillian Clarke Donald Davie Hilda Doolittle (H.D.) Over forty years of great poetry Iain Crichton Smith Elaine Feinstein Carcanet Celebrates 40 Years...from Carcanet... Louise Glück Jorie Graham W.S. Graham Robert Graves Ivor Gurney Marilyn Hacker Sophie Hannah John Heath-Stubbs Elizabeth Jennings Brigit Pegeen Kelly Mimi Khalvati Thomas Kinsella R. F. Langley Hugh MacDiarmid L ETTER FROM THE E DITOR As this catalogue goes to press, I’m editing New Poetries V, an introductory anthology of work by writers several of whom will publish Carcanet first collections in coming years. They come from the round earth’s imagined corners – from Singapore and Stirling, Cape Town and Cambridge, Dublin and Washington – and from England. They share a vocation for experimenting with form, tone and theme. From India, Europe and America a Collected Poems by Sujata Bhatt, and from South Africa and Yorkshire a new collection by Carola Luther, indicate the geographical scope of the Carcanet list. For eight years readers have waited to accompany Eavan Boland on her critical Journey with Two Maps: in April, at last we set out. We also encounter an anthology of British surrealism that changes our take on the tradition. Translation, classic and contemporary, remains at the heart of our reading. John Ashbery’s embodiment of Rimbaud’s Illuminations is his most ambitious translation project since his versions of Pierre Martory. Fawzi Karim from Iraq, Toon Tellegen from the Netherlands, the Gawain Poet from Middle English and Natalia Gorbanevskaya from Russia explore historical, allegorical and legendary landscapes and bring back trophies… And from America, a first European edition of the most recent US Poet Laureate, Kay Ryan.

  • The Oxford Dictionary of Modern Quotations.TXT
    The Oxford Dictionary of Modern Quotations PREFACE Preface =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- This is a completely new dictionary, containing about 5,000 quotations. What is a "quotation"? It is a saying or piece of writing that strikes people as so true or memorable that they quote it (or allude to it) in speech or writing. Often they will quote it directly, introducing it with a phrase like "As ---- says" but equally often they will assume that the reader or listener already knows the quotation, and they will simply allude to it without mentioning its source (as in the headline "A ros‚ is a ros‚ is a ros‚," referring obliquely to a line by Gertrude Stein). This dictionary has been compiled from extensive evidence of the quotations that are actually used in this way. The dictionary includes the commonest quotations which were found in a collection of more than 200,000 citations assembled by combing books, magazines, and newspapers. For example, our collections contained more than thirty examples each for Edward Heath's "unacceptable face of capitalism" and Marshal McLuhan's "The medium is the message," so both these quotations had to be included. As a result, this book is not--like many quotations dictionaries--a subjective anthology of the editor's favourite quotations, but an objective selection of the quotations which are most widely known and used. Popularity and familiarity are the main criteria for inclusion, although no reader is likely to be familiar with all the quotations in this dictionary. The book can be used for reference or for browsing: to trace the source of a particular quotation or to find an appropriate saying for a special need.

  • Subversão E Continuidade Na Poesia De Wendy Cope
    Viagens pela Palavra. 161 Subversão e Continuidade na Poesia de Wendy Cope Maria Adelaide de Castro Ramos Universidade de Lisboa A bibliografia sobre Wendy Cope é ainda escassa e os críticos que a referem nos seus artigos limitam-se, por vezes, a menções muito breves à Poetisa e aos seus livros já publicados. Todavia, Kingsley Amis regista o tom frequentemente elogioso dessas apreciações numa carta dirigida à própria Wendy Cope em Novembro de 1986, salientando o êxito de Making Cocoa for Kingsley Amis (publicado no mesmo ano), volume que a tornou conhecida e que constitui o fulcro deste trabalho: “I have hardly been able to pick up a periodical these last months without finding an approving reference to Making Cocoa. I am delighted.”1 Alguns anos mais tarde, em 1992 e em carta a Robert Conquest, Amis volta a manifestar- -se de modo encomiástico, nesta altura a propósito da recente publicação de Serious Concerns, outro título muito apreciado a que também se recorrerá: “The new Wendy Cope vol. is really quite good. ‘I hardly ever tire of love or rhyme – That’s why I’m poor and have a rotten time” (The Letters 1115-1116, 1116). Amis cita o poema “Variations on Belloc’s Fatigue” incluído no novo livro de Cope, um exemplo de “light verse” que caracteriza a autora e que Hilaire Belloc também escrevia. É um tipo de verso que se distingue pela finura de espírito e pelo virtuosismo técnico, entre outros atributos: “wit, elegance, grace, ingenuity and technical virtuosity”.2 1 The Letters of Kingsley Amis, ed.

  • A History of Twentieth-Century British Women’S Poetry Jane Dowson and Alice Entwistle Frontmatter More Information
    Cambridge University Press 0521819466 - A History of Twentieth-Century British Women’s Poetry Jane Dowson and Alice Entwistle Frontmatter More information A HISTORY OF TWENTIETH-CENTURY BRITISH WOMEN’S POETRY A History of Twentieth-Century British Women’s Poetry offers a uniquely detailed record and analysis of a vast array of publications, activities and achievements by major figures as well as lesser-known poets. This comprehensive survey is organised into three historical periods (1900–45, 1945–80 and 1980–2000), each part introduced by an evaluative overview in which emerging poets are mapped against cultural and literary events and trends. Four chapters in each section consider the major figures, including Charlotte Mew, Sylvia Townsend Warner, Stevie Smith, Elizabeth Jennings, Sylvia Plath, Anne Stevenson, Eavan Boland, Carol Rumens, Denise Riley, Grace Nichols and Carol Ann Duffy. The individual essays reflect and stimulate continuing debates about the nature of women’s poetry. They offer new critical approaches to reading poems that engage with, for example, war, domesticity, Modernism, linguistic innovation, place, the dramatic monologue, Postmodernism and the lyric. A chronology and detailed bibliography of primary and secondary sources, covering more than 200 writers, make this an invaluable reference source for scholars and students of British poetry and women’s writing. JANE DOWSON is Senior Lecturer in English at De Montfort University, Leicester. ALICE ENTWISTLE is Senior Lecturer in English at the University of the West
