    Plath Profiles 361 Review of The Spoken Word: Sylvia Plath (British Library 2010), ISBN: 978-0-712351-02-7 and The Spoken Word: Ted Hughes: Poems and Short Stories (British Library and BBC 2008), ISBN: 978-0-712305-49-5 Carol Bere Dramatic, visceral, occasionally mesmerizing, memorable—there is little question that these separate recordings from the archives of the BBC and the British Library of live and studio broadcasts of Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes reading their poetry offer sheer pleasure in themselves. Yet let me offer a brief caveat at the outset: this review is in no way meant to be a comparison of the poetry of Plath and Hughes, or a critical analysis of the ways in which they influenced each other's work—although I do assume mutual influence at various stages in their writing (and lives)—but rather a commentary on the separate BBC recordings, and perhaps a recognition of areas or periods of intersection in their careers. Hughes obviously had a much longer career, and these BBC recordings (two discs) reflect a span of over 30 years of writing, while the Plath recording (one disc) includes poems and interviews beginning in late l960 through January 1963. Along with knowledgeable introductions to the recordings by Peter K. Steinberg (Plath) and Alice Oswald (Hughes), respectively, these recordings are also invaluable guides to the early work (particularly in Plath's case), "hearing" both poets in the process of becoming, and, perhaps, gaining additional perspective on the poetry of both poets. What is also apparent in these recordings of Plath and Hughes is the necessity, or more realistically, the benefits of hearing poetry read aloud to fully understand the range of a poet's enterprise and achievement.

  • Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes: Layers of Literary Collaboration and The
    Plath Profiles 275 Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes: Layers of Literary Collaboration and the Perpetuation of the Poetic Voice Natalie Chambers The partnership of Ted Hughes and Sylvia Plath was arguably one of the most mutually productive literary pairings of the twentieth century, and while the work produced during their six-and-a-half year marriage was substantial in its sheer volume and artistic merit, the bulk of the critical discussion regarding their partnership focuses not on their prolific literary production but on the marriage itself and the events that led up to Plath's suicide in February of 1963. While countless books and critical essays have been written, at a distance, about this relationship—their partnership and the tumultuous passion that fueled their creative fires—these texts are inextricably rooted in speculation, cultivated by critical hypotheses and, ultimately, dependent upon the interpretations of outsiders. Even the most in-depth investigations of their marriage and respective works—like the many biographies and essays written by major Plath scholars Susan Van Dyne, Jacqueline Rose, Lynda Bundtzen, and Anne Stevenson, as well as the biography of their marriage written by Diane Middlebrook—still remain mere versions of the truth, individual interpretations of the details that constituted a collaborative life, the work it created, and the eventual culmination in Plath's death. It is not uncommon for artists to gain posthumous notoriety and critical attention, and thus sell more of their work, as was the case with Sylvia Plath. Though her death was undoubtedly a tragic loss of talent and silencing of a powerful poetic voice, it also evoked a conflagration of public and critical interest in her work and created a flurry of activity among the literary community to publish it.

  • Bodies and Self-Disclosure in American Female Confessional Poetry
    THE EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF LIFE WRITING VOLUME X (2021) SV33–SV56 Bodies and self-disclosure in American female confessional poetry Carmen Bonasera University of Pisa Abstract Far from being a mere thematic device, the body plays a crucial role in poetry, especially for modern women poets. The inward turn to an intimate autobiographical dimension, which is commonly seen as characteristic of female writing, usually complies with the requests of feminist theorists, urging writers to reconquer their identity through the assertion of their bodies. However, inscribing the body in verse is often problematic, since it frequently emerges from a complicated interaction between positive self-redefinition, life writing, and the confession of trauma. This is especially true for authors writing under the influence of the American confessional trend, whose biographies were often scarred by mental illness and self-destructive inclinations. This paper assesses the role of the body in the representation of the self in a selection of texts by American women poets—namely Sylvia Plath, Anne Sexton, Elizabeth Bishop, Adrienne Rich, and Louise Glück—where the body and its disclosure act as vehicles for a heterogeneous redefinition of the female identity.

  • D.H. Lawrence's Influence on the Marriage of Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes
    MARGE MOUNT D.H. Lawrence’s Influence on the Marriage of Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes “How frail the human heart must be – a mirrored pool of thought.” – SYLVIA PLATH Plath was enraptured with Lawrence’s way of thinking. It was as if he was her moral conscience. Why else should she claim: “...and D. H. Lawrence did have something after all...”(Unabridged Journals 105). More to the point, what were Lawrence’s ways of thinking? Let’s start with a discussion of the original dream he had to found a communal utopian community before delving into the reality of his and Frieda’s personal life together. His dream community placed three or four couples, hand picked by him, to form a colony of like-minded souls withdrawing from the materialistic society that he saw destroying itself. This ideal included a new social order based on enlightened egalitarian principles. His name for it was Ramanim, after the song. “Lawrence half- remembered a word from this song which he heard on a walk with his friend Koteliansky, a Russian Jew who had sung in Hebrew the 23rd Psalm – the word was ‘Ramanim’” (Footless Crow, 1). Lawrence actually did make overtures in this direction when he settled in the cottages at High Tregwerthen, midway between Gunar’s Head and St. Ives. (The Lawrences were expelled from Cornwall when bad timing made them suspect of being spies for the Germans during the First World War.) He fell out of favor with his potential colonists at this point. He would later express the same desire of a shared community while encamped in New Mexico, high in the mountainous area of Taos.

  • These Ghostly Archives 5: Reanimating the Past
    Plath Profiles 27 These Ghostly Archives 5: Reanimating the Past Gail Crowther & Peter K. Steinberg "Archival histories consist of tales we tell about the archive, and of tales the archive tells." (Helle 5) The universe of the Sylvia Plath archive is expanding. In addition to discussing long-established and worked-through archives such as the Plath papers held by Smith College and Indiana University, this series of papers has explored lesser known collections of materials such as the BBC Written Archives Centre, the Heinemann archives, and The New Yorker records. We ended our previous paper stating that "Since Plath's documents and possessions are scattered disparately in archives across the world, there are always new treasures to find" and with a quote from rare book dealer Rick Gekoski stating that "the treasure hunt must go on" (49). This is a challenge as much as it is a credo, and in this paper we continue our conversation about newly uncovered Sylvia Plath photographs, letters, and collections of archival materials. Our tales of the archive, and in particular the Plath archives, are as Anita Helle states above, a simultaneous telling. There are our experiences as researchers, and the stories we tell about our searches and finds, working alongside the stories the archives tell to us. This multi- dimensional story weaves a tale that not only informs us about Plath, but also includes history, culture, memory and time-hopping across years. As in "These Ghostly Archives 4,"1 our research for this paper took place both within the walls of traditional archives – in libraries and special collections– as well as remotely through Google queries and out of doors: both in nature and in houses where Plath resided.

  • Biography: Sylvia Plath (1932-1963)
    TEACHING HUMAN DIGNITY Biography: Sylvia Plath (1932-1963) Biography Sylvia Plath was born in Boston, Massachusetts on October 27, 1932 to highly intelligent parents. Her father, Otto Plath was a German immigrant and a professor of entomology at Boston University. Her mother, Aurelia, was the daughter of Austrian immigrants and taught high school German and English. At the age of eight Sylvia published her first poem. The same year, 1940, her father died of gangrene caused by untreated diabetes. His death had a profound impact on the young poet. After Otto’s death, Aurelia returned to teaching to support her My life, I feel, will not be lived children, with the help of her parents. Though she struggled to until there are books and stories which “ “relive it perpetually in time.1 maintain the family’s lifestyle, she always provided Sylvia and her younger brother, Warren, with various lessons and instilled —SYLVIA PLATH in them a deep love of learning. Throughout her childhood and adolescence, Sylvia continued to publish poetry and fiction in regional newspapers and magazines, and published her first national piece in the Christian Science Monitor in 1950. Plath was an exceptionally bright and tenacious student, excelling in studies at Wellesley High School and afterward at Smith College, where she attended on a scholarship. While at Smith, she continued to publish poetry and short stories, which earned her a guest editorship at Mademoiselle Magazine in New York. This would become the basis for the Bell Jar. It was also during this time that Plath attempted suicide for the first time and was sent to a private psychiatric hospital for six months.

  • Parodying Childhood Trauma in Sylvia Plath and Louise Bourgeois
    Reframing Confession: Parodying Childhood Trauma in Sylvia Plath and Louise Bourgeois Natasha Silver UCL Thesis Submitted for PhD in Comparative Literature Declaration I, Natasha Katie Silver, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 1 Abstract This thesis examines how childhood trauma is aesthetically mediated in the works and ego documents of Sylvia Plath and Louise Bourgeois, departing from a biographical approach in order to reconceive confession as an aesthetic genre. In particular, I explore the extent to which parody — as an intertextual, self-reflexive and playful mode — provides a means of framing an experience that resists symbolisation. Equally, I consider how the parodic mode might enable the artists to situate themselves in the male canon. Giving a cultural history of confession, Chapter 1 identifies a convergence between confessional practices and narratives of victimhood in contemporary western discourse. However, the art forms analysed in this thesis (namely, journal, poem and sculpture) actively manipulate confessional strategies, inviting critical reflection on audience enjoyment of the aestheticisation of suffering. Chapter 2 discusses how trauma can distort linear time and memory, drawing some key distinctions between traumatic temporalities that are frequently elided in trauma theory. By contrast, I propose that parody may enable the traumatised subject to establish reflective distance from overwhelmingly painful affect by localising the experience in time. Arguing that Plath’s journals produce (rather than reveal) a traumatised subject, Chapter 3 explores how they both inhabit and exceed the figure of melancholic poet, ironising the conception of trauma as a wellspring of genius.

  • Reimagined Trees in Richard Wilbur's “She” and Sylvia Plath's “Virgin in A
    Ac­ta humanitaric­a universitatis Saulensis. T. 13 (2011). 350–363. ISSN 1822-7309 re­imagined trees in richard Wilbur’s “she” and sylvia Plath’s “virgin in a tree” I r e n a RAGAIŠIEN ė Vytautas Magnus University keywords: mythology, postwar Americ­an poetry, c­onformism, mythopoeia, revisionist mythmaking. Richard Wilbur (b. 1921) and Sylvia Plath (1932–1963) belong to the postwar generation of poets whose works are characterized by “the direction in which American poetry was to go within ten years after the end of the war: towards mythology, the use of dream and archetype,” to quote Richard Gray (G r a y 1990, 220). The social and political context of the 1950’s is crucial to any understanding of the abundant use of mythological imagery in the works by Richard Wilbur and Sylvia Plath. According to Juliana Stevenson: The end of World War II and the beginning of the 1950s saw a time of prosperity and success in mainstream America. Less than a decade after the United States allied with Great Britain and the Soviet Union, forming one of the most powerful forces in history to defeat the axis powers in the war, the U.S. was deeply entrenched in a nuclear arms race and ‘Cold War’ with the Soviet Union. As a result, the country put on a collective facade of stability and strength to cover up many injustices that were taking place during the time. Americans, equipped for the fi­rst time in a long while with a good amount of money, flooded to the suburbs and replaced any sorrows they might have had with material products and consumerism - creating an America of conformity and extravagance (S t e v e n s o n )1.

  • The Limitations of Language in Sylvia Path's the Bell
    lilfiitafions i{ilEtfifffi Wh e n The BelI Jar was published in January 1963, Sylvia Plath had less than a month to live. The struggle of those last few weeks has been immortalized and perpetuated in biographies, literary criticism, and the zoor film Syluia. The harsh winter that shut down lnndon, the stmggle of caring for two young children, concerns for money, estrangement from Ted Hughes, her suicide-all of these images color our perceptions of The BeII Jar. Some would even argue that this story has eclipsed the plot of The BeII Jar. The French liter- ary theorist Gerard Genette contends narrators are frames for larger cultural contexts, and ia net sta lla rd isanassistantprofessorof it seems the ultimate narrator of The Bell Jar could be the legend of the last few weeks of plath, her research in- english .on.'poiaion in washington, dc. in addition to sylvia a desperate and depressed Plath. Therefore, it is naive to think we can discuss Sylvia Plath also writes poetry and without referencing her biography. Yet, it is unreasonable to imagine there is nothing else terlests include modern literature and cultural rhetoric. she to say without this context. The BeII Jar is rich with social commentary, particularly in its fiction. discussion of the roles of language and identity formation. This is obscured when we do not consider the larger implications of Plath's work. Biography is a piece ofthe puzzle, but it is by no means the ultimate piece or perhaps even the largest. The BeII Jar can be read as a cautionary tale for women.

  • Leaving Cert English Notes
    WEEKLY GRINDS AT THE ACADEMY At The Dublin Academy of Education, our mission is to enable students to realise their full potential in the State Examinations. We do this by providing both part-time and full-time second level courses, delivered by some of the most passionate and dedicated teachers in the country Over the last decade, we have become the cornerstone of exam preparation in Ireland. Each year, from our schools in Stillorgan and Killester, we provide weekly grinds to over 3,500 students, making us the largest and most trusted provider in the country Weekly grinds are 75 minutes in duration, and are held in a class-based environment. The foundation of our weekly grinds is "exam focus". We strip away the unnecessary sections of each subject, and focus soley on the core, examinable material. Our aim is to increase students' exam performances - and ultimately their CAO points. Weekly grinds include a special 1-to-1 service, where students can come up to the teacher for a period of time before or after the class. This is a specialised, individual service of which we encourage all our students to take advantage. All our Weekly Grinds commencing in September 2020 will operate in line with public health advice and social distancing requirements. We are fortunate that we have large and well-ventilated classrooms that can accommodate safe distances between students. However, due to social distancing, we will have to reduce capacity in our Weekly Grinds classes which means we expect classes to book out quicker than usual.
