Settling the World Selected Stories 1970-2020 M. John Harrison

Summary Throughout his career, M. John Harrison’s writing has defied categorisation, building worlds both unreal and all-too real, overlapping and interlocking with each other. His stories are replete with fissures and portals into parallel dimensions, unidentified countries and lost lands. But more important than the places they point to are the obsessions that drive the people who so believe in them, characters who spend their lives hunting for, and haunted by, clues and maps that speak to the possibility of somewhere else. This selection of stories, drawn from 50 years of writing, bears witness to that desire for difference: whether following backstreet occultists, amateur philosophers, down-and-outs or refugees, we see our relationship with ‘the other’ in Comma Press microscopic detail, and share in Harrison’s rejection of the idea that the world, or our understanding of it, 9781912697281 could ever be settled.

CARCANET PRESS LTD. One, Two Angela Leighton

Summary In 'Pickpocket, Naples,' a sonnet sequence reflecting on her Neapolitan background, Angela Leighton imagines a poem 'surprised in the act of finding itself.' Constantly alert to such surprises, One, Two moves from memory-scapes of childhood to elegies for her mother, quirky tributes to the creatures of the natural world to anguished poems about breath and breathlessness in times of coronavirus. Some of these poems are in formal stanzas; others catch the spaced freedom of dream or day-dream. Above all, this is a poetry which insists on the rhythmic footstep that walks in words, on the 'one, two' of a beat in language, whether the steps of a dance or the daily countdowns of sickness and death. The volume ends with some translations of the poetry of Dante and Pirandello which, either strictly or more freely, test the limits of translation.

As If By Magic Selected Poems Paula Meehan

Summary This new selection of poems by Paula Meehan resonates with integrity and sympathy. The poet moves from the feminist to the ecological, from the grittier urban spaces of the north side of center-city Dublin to the suburban spaces outside, never leaving the former behind while weaving the gathering themes in a compassionate web. Meehan writes evocatively about gender and class, never losing sight of the lyric purpose of her poems. She blends the comic and tragic as many Irish writers before her have done. In Meehan’s poetry, particularly her most recent volumes, nature has historical and personal significance, but it also functions on its own terms. Meehan endeavors to examine the places, public and private, where nature and Wake Forest University Press culture meet. At this intersection she begins to make sense of the suffering of innocents and the powerless, to 9781930630987 chart avenues toward liberation, and to salve their psychological and physical wounds by finding poetry in the Pub Date: 4/1/21 On Sale Date: 4/1/21 disappearance and reappearance of the natural world. $19.95 USD/$26.95 CAD Discount Code: SHO Contributor Bio Trade Paperback Paula Meehan was born in Dublin where she still lives.

Circle of Form Form and Contrast in Architecture Thomas Arvid Jaeger

Summary Circle of Form offers an informative guide to the complex discipline of mastering form, contrast, and composition in architecture.

The Rise and Fall of the Orange Order during the Famine From Reformation to Dolly's Brae Daragh Curran

Summary Formed in 1795, the Orange Order had grown into a formidable popular organisation in its first forty years of existence. However, against a background of major social, political, and economic change, the Grand Orange Lodge of Ireland made the forced decision to disband the Order in 1836 in the face of mounting government pressure. In spite of this, the extremely widespread Protestant association could not simply disappear and continued to thrive at local level. By 1845 it had been officially revived amidst fears of renewed Catholic agitation. Within the next four years the Order eventually returned to its previous popular standing. This journey was far from straightforward and many obstacles needed negotiation.

VALLENTINE MITCHELL Politics by Other Means The Free German League of Culture in London, 1939-1946 Charmian Brinson, Richard Dove, Anna Müller-Härlin

Summary Politics by Other Means traces the development and historical significance of the Free German League of Culture, the foremost organization representing anti-Nazi German refugees in Britain during the years of the Second World War.

Because of the restrictions on refugees imposed by the British authorities, this cultural program served very much as a surrogate for direct political activity: the continuation of politics by other means. The study concludes by tracing the fate of those who returned to a now-divided Germany and the post-war integration of Vallentine Mitchell those who remained into British arts and society.
