Japanese Forms in American Poetry

Shows the surprising ways T. S. Eliot's work sheds light on-and proves useful to-the contemporary struggle for a freer and more just world.
How does literature from the past speak to the present? What can we, as readers committed to combatting oppression, learn from figures whose writing we love but some of whose beliefs we may oppose? Quite a lot, according to Patrick R. Query. To make this case, Query turns to a writer and critic as canonical as he is controversial-T. S. Eliot. Passionately argued and eminently readable, Freedom Is Not Enough shows how Eliot makes a surprising yet vital ally in the struggle to fill the world with more freedom, equality, and human dignity. Without ignoring or downplaying the bigotry and elitism that are ineluctable parts of Eliot's legacy, Query argues that we need today what Eliot has to teach us: about migration, peace, friendship, radicalism, anti-fascism, liberation, resistance, and hope. Drawing on the full scope of Eliot's oeuvre-from his most well-known poetry and prose to newly available archival materials-Freedom Is Not Enough demonstrates how to use Eliot and literature more broadly to confront the forces conspiring to turn our world into a waste land.

"City of Beginnings is an exploration of modernism in Arabic poetry, a movement that emerged in Beirut during the 1950s and became the most influential and controversial Arabic literary development of the twentieth century. Robyn Creswell introduces English-language readers to a poetic movement that will be uncannily familiar--and unsettlingly strange. He also provides an intellectual history of Lebanon during the early Cold War, when Beirut became both a battleground for rival ideologies and the most vital artistic site in the Middle East. Arabic modernism was centered on the legendary magazine Shi'r ("Poetry"), which sought to put Arabic verse on "the map of world literature." The Beiruti poets--Adonis, Yusuf al-Khal, and Unsi al-Hajj chief among them--translated modernism into Arabic, redefining the very idea of poetry in that literary tradition. City of Beginnings includes analyses of the Arab modernists' creative encounters with Ezra Pound, Saint-John Perse, and Antonin Artaud, as well as their adaptations of classical literary forms. The book also reveals how the modernists translated concepts of liberal individualism, autonomy, and political freedom into a radical poetics that has shaped Arabic literary and intellectual debate to this day"--Publisher's description.

Focusing on the poetry and poetics of four pivotal authors, this book examines how experimental approaches to poetic form in the post-war United States actively intervened in and reframed period-defining questions surrounding the limits and possibilities of human agency.

The Poetics of Agency

Rochester and the pursuit of pleasure, the fourth full-length study of Rochester's work since David Vieth's pioneering edition of The Compete Poems (1968), is the first to bring together a reading of John Wilmot's poetry, dramatic works, and letters. The book provides a reading of Rochester's work in a biographical context. Though a biographical interpretation is fraught with risks, theoretically and in terms of the surviving literary and biographical material, in doing so, Carver shows the role that biography plays in interpreting Rochester's work and illuminates a central problem in Rochester criticism: the relationship of poet to his speakers. This in turn reveals that Rochester's works cluster about a central theme - the pursuit of pleasure - a complex process in which many of Rochester's mid-seventeenth century contemporaries were engaged. No longer sure under the old dispensation of their duties - familial, political, religious, or artistic - they sought new grounds for their motivations. For Rochester this pursuit of pleasure has its roots in Christianity. Rochester's work reflects his Christian and God-fearing upbringing and provides evidence of an excessive preoccupation with, and, at the end of his life, acceptance of Christianity. As the various speakers and Rochester himself pursue pleasure by courting king, wife, mistresses, and the craft of writing, they in humorous, perverse, and even criminal ways court God.

Broad in its scope and forward-thinking in its approach, this book offers a wide-ranging thematic exploration of key debates on contemporary translation in Latin American literature and culture. Featuring 32 chapters, some of which have been translated themselves, from a variety of the field's leading authorities alongside up-and-coming voices from around the world, it is organized in nine sections that correspond to fundamental sets of political, literary, and cultural questions that have emerged throughout the continent's history. Sections focus on colonialism, race, gender, the archive, criticism, creation, authenticity, politics, and world literature to offer a broad and ambitious snapshot of where the field is now as well as where it is going. Each essay demonstrates a way of doing translation studies by looking closely at texts and moments, whilst simultaneously drawing larger conclusions that are applicable to other objects of study. Mapping emerging trends in this vibrant field, it provides specialists, researchers and students with an invaluable and expansive collection of current research on translation in Latin America.
