Paperback. Condizione: New. The first collection of critical essays on the writing of Kathleen Jamie, one of the most outstanding poets of our timesKathleen Jamie's works are classics. No one can read Kathleen Jamie and remain indifferent or unchanged. Nationally acclaimed since her first major publications in the 1980s, Jamie stands out from other contemporary poets in her exceptional musicality, her strikingly unusual perspectives, her wry humour, translucent imagery and hard-edged economy of expression. These 16 newly commissioned critical essays and 7 previously unpublished poems by leading poets make up the first full-length study of Kathleen Jamie's writing. The essays discuss all of her poetry collections, including The Queen of Sheba (1994), Jizzen (1999), Mr and Mrs Scotland Are Dead: Poems 1980-94 (2002), The Tree House (2004) and The Overhaul (2012), as well as her travel writing, including Among Muslims (2002), her nature writing, Findings (2005) and Sightlines (2012) and her collaborative work, including Frissure (2013), with artist Brigid Collins. Whether engaging with national politics, with gender, with landscape and place, or with humanity's relation to the natural environment, this volume demonstrates that Kathleen Jamie's verse teaches us new ways of listening, of seeing and of living in the contemporary world. Readers will have access to 14 audio recordings of Kathleen Jamie reading from works discussed in the volume.www.euppublishing.com/page/kathleenjamie/audioRachel Falconer is Professor of Modern English Literature at the University of Lausanne.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This book demonstrates the ways in which Virgils are poems that Heaney lived with long and dreamily, especially the descent into the underworld in Aeneid VI. It shows that in his original English poems as well as his translations from Latin, Heaney conjures and transforms familiar Virgilian motifs. The rhythm, pace and musicality of Virgils hexameters can be heard in Heaneys pastoral eclogues and sonnet sequences. And Virgils life and times, as well as his poetry, contribute to the shaping of Heaneys prose poetics. In dialogue with Virgil, as well as other classical and modern poets, Heaney develops his notion of the redress of poetry: the counterbalance that poetry can offer against historical tragedy, suffering and loss. The book explores Heaneys intensely productive, thirty-year dialogue with Virgil, beginning with his translation of The Golden Bough in the 1980s and extending through several major volumes, including Seeing Things, The Midnight Verdict, Electric Light, District and Circle, The Riverbank Field, Human Chain, and the posthumously published translation of Aeneid Book VI. The first book-length study of Heaneys dialogue with Virgil, one of Seamus Heaneys major literary exemplars.
