The Space Between

This is the first encyclopedia devoted exclusively to medieval women’s writing&nbsp;globally. Focusing on the thousand-year period between 500-1500, this comprehensive reference work addresses a long-standing gap in scholarship on women writers from this period. It challenges current understandings of the literary tradition of women by incorporating early writers and texts that remain marginal and by expanding definitions of textual composition to include more collaborative&nbsp;and contextual&nbsp;activities.&nbsp;This encyclopedia also presents women in context of the global Middle Ages.&nbsp;Entries extend beyond works written in England, Scotland, Ireland,&nbsp;and Wales to include works by women from Europe, Africa,&nbsp;and Asia. By locating medieval women’s writing within its cultural, social, religious,&nbsp;and political contexts,&nbsp;The Palgrave Encyclopedia of Medieval Women’s Writing&nbsp;in the Global Middle Ages&nbsp;will be an ideal entry point for students and researchers coming into the field, and a valuable resource for established scholars.

The Palgrave Encyclopedia of Medieval Women's Writing in the Global Middle Ages

From one of Columbia’s most innovative modern poets, María Paz Guerrero’s poetry collection, Pink Tongue Out, Blind Cat, is filled with sinuous verses on the human experience told with cadence akin to salsa musicians like Héctor Lavoe.
In María Paz Guerrero’s Pink Tongue Out, Blind Cat, unnamed bodies are cut open in search of disease, legs buckle and collapse under pressure, and a blind cat stalks its way through the collection, bumping into unseen objects as it travels. María Paz Guerrero’s poetry collection is both experimental and lyrical, forcing readers to fall into its eerily clipped rhythm.

Pink Tongue Out, Blind Cat

What would the world look like if we couldn’t express outrage against the things we disagree with or support the changes we seek?Rivers that don’t catch fire. The choice to marry who we love. Clean air and water. Even weekends off. Peaceful protest—which, in the U.S. as in many other countries around the world, is protected as a crucial part of an inclusive, thriving participatory democracy – helped bring about each of these victories. Free speech, dissent, and public mobilization are essential tools for advancing so many causes, including environmental protection, workers’ rights, human rights, self-determination, and climate, social, and racial justice.Though protest has brought so much progress — or maybe because of it — the right to speak freely, dissent, and even do basic public outreach and organizing, is increasingly under attack. We have come to expect crackdowns in authoritarian countries, but anti-protest sentiment is spreading in established democracies as well. Activists are being vilified, retaliated against, and even criminalized. In the U.S., anti-protest laws have been enacted in 49 states. SLAPP suits – meritless legal action taken to silence dissent -- are on the rise. New legal concepts, such as “negligent protest,” are being used to hold organizers liable for damages. At the same time, violent actions taken by anti-democratic forces have been reframed and pardoned.Our right to peaceful protest is under attack, and we must act now!Protest! A Tribute and a Call to Action&nbsp;presents a clear understanding and appreciation of the critical role peaceful activism has always played in advancing public good, and to spotlight the need to safeguard this democratic right. The book describes more than 40 iconic, inspiring campaigns from around the world. Photos, artifacts, inspiring quotes, and more make this a compelling testament to the power of public dissent. Guest essays from leaders such as Jane Fonda, Tennessee Representative Justin Pearson, Dolores Huerta, Nemonte Nenquino, and others reveal the role that protest has played in their commitment to fight for change. This book, through storytelling and first-hand reflection, encourages readers to themselves engage in peaceful activism — right here, right now.

The Poets That Made Our World and Why We Need Them

How to Think Like a Poet

A collection of lyrical and experimental poems, Mermaid Theory redefines the page to visually and textually enact the struggles and celebrations of Arab-American femininity. 
 
In her second full-length collection, Maya Salameh offers a profound exploration of Arab-American identity, weaving together themes of myth, science, and cultural heritage. Salameh's innovative poetic forms blur the lines between ancient myth and psychological scholarship. 
 
Mermaid Theory boldly reimagines Arab-American womanhood in the modern military age, deploying psychological evaluation forms, ritual incantations, and other texts as visual lyric poems to deepen the reader's engagement. Salameh transcends simple narratives of shame or violence to offer a nuanced portrayal of identity, exploring both the privileges and heartbreaks of diasporic exile. Her multilingual poetry bridges Arabic and English, enriching the poems' sonic texture.&nbsp;

Drawing on deep passion and personal experience, former US Poet Laureate Tracy K. Smith demystifies the art form that has too often been mischaracterised as "inaccessible", "irrelevant" or "intimidating". She argues that poetry is rooted in fundamentally human qualities innate to our capacities to love, dream, question and engage across diverse cultures and backgrounds. Lifting the veil on her own creative process, Smith shows us how reading and writing poetry allows us to confront life's many uncertainties and losses, to build camaraderie with strangers and to understand ourselves. She grounds readers in the technical elements of the craft and provides close readings of the works of contemporary poets, alongside classic poems. By reimagining and re-examining the age-old art form, Fear Less is a warm invitation to find meaning, consolation and hope through poetry.

"A formally ambitious second collection calculating the cost of evolution and survival"--

A book of transition-poetic, political, religious-and its always radical implications. 

Occupied with trans Islamic spirituality, the genocide in Palestine, and the manifold intricacies of queer love, the poems in imogen smith's second collection, raw &amp; zero, open up an unabashedly musical incitement to take a stand on honest ground. The poems in this collection are pastoral and urban, investigating the tensions between the philosophical and the pornographic. The influence of concrete poetry is felt throughout the book's middle section, where the poet plays with the sense of shape, space, and symbols. The author began both medically transitioning and converted to Islam during the writing of this book, which is felt in the book's themes of grounding, meaning, hope, love, lust, identity, and community alongside personal, regional, and global grief.

Forgiveness is necessary in the long fight for a just world-but it is only possible after the oppressed are victorious. 
 
For too long, revolutionary social movements have reconciled to defeat. We must start winning again. Forgiveness is a necessary strategy for remaking the world, to secure and sustain victories, to turn one-time enemies into friends. 
 
With deep political commitment and lucid moral clarity, David Renton makes the case for forgiveness, but of a particularly unruly sort. Tracing the tragic abuse of Eleanor Marx and Jane Wells, the mistakes of the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission, the courage of the Bolshevik Revolution, and the redemption of an American televangelist, Renton urges us to forgive, but only after tearing down the citadels of the rich. 
 
Revolutionary Forgiveness merges history with philosophy, infuses politics with ethics, and connects collective struggle with the individual's search for justice to demand a future for all-when the oppressed will be magnanimous in power, and even former oppressors will be free.
