Princeton Series of Contemporary Poets

A reckoning with psychological and ecological crises from a poet whose work has been praised as “beautiful and riveting” (Los Angeles Review of Books) A poetic representation of PTSD and its evocative bewilderments, Paula Bohince’s mesmerizing new collection, A Violence, is written at inflection points: a waking from dissociation borne from a harrowing childhood; a breakdown; and a struggle toward wholeness by means of mystified recollection amid ecological disturbances. Praised for poems that “reward enormously upon first encounter, and only more so upon subsequent reads” (The Rumpus), Bohince is here alert to surprise, the enthralling image “rushing through such wreckage a brain becomes.” Contemplating vulnerability and resilience in the entwined human and natural worlds, with a voice precise and powerful, A Violence is a haunting collection that builds symphonically to recover a self “gone away,” where the ordinary is imbued with transcendental significance.

A Violence

This book makes available Ronald Knox's hitherto unpublished lectures on Virgil's Aeneid delivered at Trinity College, Oxford, as part of a lecture course on Virgil in 1912. Written with Knox's customary incisiveness and with frequent allusions to contemporary life, the lectures are devoted to the appreciation of the Aeneid and focus on what he called the 'essential and dominant characteristics' that make up its greatness. They deal with Virgil's political and religious outlook, ideas of the afterlife, sense of romance and pathos, narrative style, sources, versification and appreciation of scenery. His interpretation of the relationship between Dido and Aeneas renders redundant the question, much debated to this day, of whether Aeneas loved Dido, and also portrays Aeneas more sympathetically than is currently fashionable. The additional introductory and critical essays by the contributors place the lectures in their historical and scholarly context, bring out their enduring relevance and illustrate how Ronald Knox's distinctive approach might be still developed to advantage. As Robert Speaight noted in his presidential address to the Virgil Society in 1958, 'many of us who love our Virgil will now understand him better because Ronald Knox loved and understood him so well'.

Ronald Knox’s Lectures on Virgil’s Aeneid

As people, we are capable of both love and hate, amazement and disgust, fun and misery. So why do we live in a world that is constantly nudging us to hate both ourselves and others? In this brand-new collection, Hollie McNish brings her inimitable bled of poetry and prose to question all the warped and wily way we have been taught to hate, and if we might learn to love again. 'This book is so good . . . quietly heartbreaking, so full of love' Musa Okwonga 'Funny, so smart and refreshingly honest' Sarah Millican 'I love Hollie McNish!' Matt Haig 'I've loved her work for years' Jo Brand 'Earthy, angry and funny' Scotsman 'Hollie and her poems are a bold, funny, raw, rebellious delight' Liz Berry 'Poems to feed your soul' Stylist

and other things I’m learning to love: 'energising, fearless and joyful' Sara Pascoe

'Gayl Jones's work represents a watershed in American literature . . . her truth-telling, filled with beauty, tragedy, humour and incisiveness, is unmatched' Imani Perry Two epic poems brimming with intimacy, history and revolution, from the acclaimed writer of Palmares and Corregidora. When the Portuguese attack Palmares, Brazil's last fugitive slave enclave, Almeyda and her husband are separated as they flee from the destruction. Amid the flight and re-enslavement of the inhabitants, their narrative emerges. Two powerful poems give voice to the lovers: Almeyda's passionate lament for Anninho, whom she believes has been killed, is combined with his response as he searches for her. Their story is one of longing - for each other, for freedom - and for revolution. 'A once-in-a-lifetime work of literature, the kind that changes your understanding of the world' Yara Rodrigues Fowler on Palmares 'Page after breathtaking page, her prose is intricate, mesmerizing, and endlessly inventive' Deesha Philyaw on Palmares 'Jones's writing powerfully blends narrative and lyricism' Margo Jefferson

Their story is one of longing - for each other, for freedom - and for revolution. 'I want to stay here, Anninho.' 'There won't be any way you can stay here. When they catch us, they'll take you back.' 'The men they kill, the women they take back.'

Song for Almeyda and Song for Anninho

The thrilling story of the healers, artists and prodigies once persecuted as witches - from the three-time T.S. Eliot Prize-shortlisted poetIn her thrilling fourth collection, Midden Witch, Fiona Benson enters the world of familiars, fables and hedge-magic and focuses on the persistent superstition - the fear and false knowledge - that was witchcraft. Telling tales of imagined transformations and spell-casting, these poems present a litany of artists, dreamers and outcasts and a study of their ostracisation. The poet looks at how gifted, sometimes troubled, individuals - generally healers, artists, prodigies and almost always women - became scapegoats, victims of societal paranoia and persecution, and were hounded for centuries, often to a gratuitously violent public execution. In Midden Witch, these women speak back to us with dark humour, insight and real herbal knowledge. Reckoning with middle age, marginalisation, perimenopause and a steady, unstoppable vanishing, this troubled codex of remedies, spells and stories speaks to human fear in the face of the unknown, and a drive to protect our loved ones that transcends all rational thought. At play in the language of archival accounts of witchcraft, this is a dark, eclectic spell-book that witnesses the end-days of magic.

Eloquent and uncompromising, Swell explores the triumphs and hardships of the journey to new motherhood - through pregnancy, miscarriage, birth and beyond In the consultation room I stared at the purple flowers in their purple vase and imagined my insides: an ocean, a cave, a storm. Maria Ferguson's second poetry collection is a raw and powerful documentation of one woman's experience of becoming a mother. Against a backdrop of the sounds and sensations of daily life, she longs for her own mother''s embrace, observes as her body changes and charts a course through loss and wilting house plants toward recovery, empowerment and renewal. Tender, direct and winningly witty, Swell distils the poet''s complex feelings surrounding family and domesticity, exploring the contending weight and levity felt as she contemplates a thrillingly unfamiliar new chapter. Ferguson is a poet as alert to the absurd as to the shattering, and these are large-hearted poems, full of life and thought. Together, they invite the reader to join them in a search for self-acceptance, for freedom from shame, and for a path to stability in increasingly uncertain times.
