Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. We learn a good deal about David Mason's life through his poetry: we learn of his family life and troubles, his travels, his loves, and his losses, but we never have the impression of being buttonholed by a man who is self-centered or egoistical. Partly this is because we are convinced of t…he numerous ways in which the life he recounts is connected to other lives, to places and to historical events. But it is mainly because we always sense how closely what he recounts is related to ourselves. As with all major poets, his voice becomes our own."This book examines Mason's career in detail, from his very first volume (1990) to his most recent publications, bringing out the full range of his accomplishment in a number of different genreslyrics, narrative poetry, children's verse, drama, and opera librettiwhile also examining his critical essays and memoirs. While offering close readings of all his most important poemsfrom the shortest epigram to the book-length verse narrative, Ludlowthe book also provides the biographical context for these works, giving an insight into a rich and varied life that has spanned three continents. Examines David Mason's career in detail, from his very first volume (1990) to his most recent publications, bringing out the full range of his accomplishment in a number of different genres - lyrics, narrative poetry, children's verse, drama, and opera libretti - while also examining his critical essays and memoirs.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "It's been a long time since a collection has so affected me. Whether she is writing of our twisted relational lives or of her own seemingly innate sense that something's wrong, Roma-Deeley writes with that curious blend of authority and self-doubt that marks our best poets. Ultimately, and… reassuringly, she finds the affirmation that sustains her through it all; as her title poem urges, "having courage, let us write a word or phrase on the short list of certainties something that sounds very much like praise." Which is just what she does in this tour de force." - Sydney Lea, finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in Poetry, and former Vermont Poet Laureate Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. What if the world you learned in flame and darkness/is apprehended only through these fancies?/What if the whole of it is heavenly? These urgent questions posed by Maryann Corbett at the start of her new collection The O in the Air set in motion a series of powerful poems that explore that…would-be-heavenly world in all of its beauty, pain, squalor, and ordinary glory. Corbett's poems are alternately visionary - eloquent prayers that reach after the numinous - and also earthly - frank utterances that lament and interrogate the quotidian. The sacred and the profane continually rub up against one another as the poet fixes her gaze on the world around her and perceives the unexpected connections that pervade the creation. Hers is a deeply Catholic sensibility, one that is both animated and troubled by the faith given to her by her parents, revenants who haunt her memory and her poetry. These elegant, deftly crafted poems lead the reader, step by step, on a quest for an answer to the mystery of our origins and our being: ""God is the question, the O in the air"" the poet is hell-bent to find. What if the world you learned in flame and darkness/is apprehended only through these fancies?/What if the whole of it is heavenly? These urgent questions posed by Maryann Corbett at the start of her new collection The O in the Air set in motion a series of powerful poems.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Latter Days tells a story about the meaning of a human life in the strange new world that is emerging today.After an initial sonnet that presents the existential challenge of the COVID-19 pandemic, it opens with "The Wanderer," a view of the world from the perspective of an aging world trav…eler seeking a summation of his more than seventy years of wayfaring. It continues with "In a Plague Season," a collection of poetic notes on the pandemic and its parallel to the changing climate of the earth. The next section, "A House Divided," extends the plague metaphor to the current state of political warfare, and the following sequence, "Toxic Manhood," examines the idea of maleness as a contested site at the center of the current struggle, suggesting an apocalyptic picture of a world in which the fertile union of sexuality has become obsolete.The next section, "Ars Poetica," is a turning point where the art of poetry, together with the other arts, especially music, is enlisted in a process of healing and recuperation. Poetry's economy and wit are called in by the next section, "Oeconomics," to outline a modestly contrarian political philosophy that might provide the basis for a cure. Three sections follow"Observations," "You Know Who You Are," and "Valentines"that recover poetry's sensory grasp of the world, turn to human affection as a foundation of renewed health, and celebrate a long marriage. The final section, "Second Childhood," prepares the wanderer for the conclusion of his long search for meaning.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The Harvest and the Lamp, the third volume of the Colosseum Books series, is a singular collection of poems in a wide variety of forms and voices. Author Andrew Frisardi writes on fundamental human themes such as love and desire, death and grief, the nature of the self and self-transcendenc…e in a tone that ranges from serious to witty to exuberant.The poems are often set in Italy, where Frisardi has lived for a number of years, drawing on natural or concrete imagery as well as the imaginal or symbolic. Frisardi composes in a number of forms: sonnet and sestina, triolet and ghazal, nonce forms and free verse, gracefully and with a fresh use of diction and rhyme. As the late poet-translator Brett Foster put it, Andrew Frisardis [poems] are exquisitely made things, many angled and shining brightly. Ear, eye, and mind do their elegant, exact work.Frisardi is an internationally noted translator and independent scholar of Dante, and Dantes impact appears directly or indirectly in much of his poetry, including a few translations in this volume. The poet-biographer Paul Mariani has written that in Frisardis poetry one finds the resins of the classics everywhere. Add wit, sensitivity, humor and the recurring shock of recognition, then sit back and enjoy what Andrew Frisardi has prepared for you. Then come back and taste again for the sheer pleasure of the company. Offers a singular collection of poems in a wide variety of forms and voices. Author Andrew Frisardi writes on fundamental human themes such as love and desire, death and grief, the nature of the self and self-transcendence in a tone that ranges from serious to witty to exuberant.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The translations - or ""conversions"" - in this book make available to contemporary readers of English-language poetry a wealth of poems that belong to what T.S. Eliot called ""the tradition."" From Homer, Sappho, and Archilochus to Catullus, Horace, and Virgil; from Dante, Villon, and Lope… de Vega to Baudelaire, Rilke, and Pessoa; this book presents fresh versions of many of the best-loved poems in the Western European tradition in strikingly new versions, allowing readers without access to the originals the opportunity to possess, in some measure, both the sense and style of these monumental works.Ryan Wilson's first book of poems, The Stranger World - winner of the prestigious Donald Justice Poetry Prize - explored the ways in which human beings may discover themselves in life's unforseen and unpredictable phenomena. That book, described by poet and professor James Matthew Wilson as ""a most astonishing debut"" and ""maybe the best first book by a poet I've ever read,"" lays the groundwork for Proteus Bound, in which the author's practice of xenia, or ""hospitality,"" welcomes poems from more than a half dozen languages, spanning nearly three millennia, into English. The translations in this book make available to contemporary readers of English-language poetry a wealth of poems that belong to what T.S. Eliot called the tradition. From Homer and Sappho, to Baudelaire and Rilke, this book presents fresh versions of many of the best-loved poems in the Western European tradition in strikingly new versions.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. What is the meaning of human life? The Summa Theologica is, in effect, Thomas Aquinas answer to this question. With the goal of showing why human beings exist, their destiny, and how they can achieve it, Aquinas argues that human beings exist to know God, that their destiny is to enjoy the…vision of him in the next life, that they need to act properly in this life in order to be worthy of their destiny, and that the Churchs sacraments are the means to do so. The Summa Theologica represents a major attempt to introduce the method and principles of Aristotle into the study of Christian theology. Intended for an educated general audience and philosophical neophytes, A Philosophical Primer on the Summa Theologica will help readers become better acquainted with Aquinas thought, summarily expressing his positions and arguments largely in his own terms. Using an innovative format, author Richard Regan makes available in one volume a more integrated view of Aquinas philosophy in the Summa Theologica.

Hardback. Condizione: New. While there is a long-standing history of reflection among Catholics about the proper orientation of Catholicism towards American society, today the American Catholic community confronts a fundamentally new situation. Catholics face the dual threat of an ever more centralized and increasingly omnicompe…tent state and a new cultural ethos fundamentally incompatible with--and hostile to--Catholicism.Today, American Catholics no longer live as a religious minority in a Protestant society whose commitment to limited government and religious freedom affords Catholics considerable space to live out their faith commitments, and whose Christian character assures the existence of substantial moral commonality. Now, Catholics are a religious minority in a post-Christian society animated by an anthropology and public morality incompatible with Catholic truth and committed to the exclusion of the faith from public life.This new situation demands a rethinking on the part of American Catholics of their place in America and their relationship with American society. These essays seek to assist with this challenging task by casting light on this new situation and exploring its implications for the Church in America.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The House of the Lord invites readers to participate in a unique journey: a deep exploration of the Old and New Testaments that searches out and contemplates the reality of God's presence with his people, with a particular focus on investigating God's self-revelation in and through the bibl…ical temple. The journey represents a tour de force of biblical theology, guided by author Steven Smith, a Catholic biblical scholar, seminary professor, and expert on the temple and the Holy Land. In addition to the temple, Smith observes the centrality of priesthood in both the Old and New Testaments, exploring all four Gospels like never before, through a temple lens.From Genesis onward, Smith carefully traces the biblical mystery of the temple, including the Sanctuary of Mount Eden, the tabernacle of the wilderness, the rise and fall of Solomon's Temple, Herod's Temple in Jesus's day, and the heavenly sanctuary of Revelation. Supported by a massive array of evidence and details, from sources across two millennia of biblical theology, this book will be read and read again for its value as a reference work. The House of the Lord is for anyone who seeks to understand more deeply the message of the biblical story.

The book captures pivotal periods and significant events in Hazo's life that shaped the person and writer he became as well as the remarkable individuals who added meaning and vibrancy to his life's collage. Candid, wise, and conversational, Hazo's poems are central to this pioneering biographical formguiding the narrative as opposed to merely adorning or supporting it. Hazo once noted, "There are too many analytical books about authors and not many that see life as a storywhich is what life is."

Paperback. Condizione: New. Vestige of Eden, Image of Eternity: Common Experience, the Hierarchy of Being, and Modern Science proffers a Catholic worldview of creation and the universe and shows that it is reasonable in the light of the best of human experience, both modern and pre-modern. The Catholic worldview maintains that t…he Liturgy of the Church-the image of eternity-is the "blueprint" for material and immaterial reality. This liturgical structure is manifested in the natural world through the hierarchy of being-the vestige of Eden-evident to human knowledge, and as such provides a framework that easily subsumes and makes sense of the data of modern scholarship and science. It also leaves them open to understanding in the light of realties beyond matter. Proposing a novel framework for understanding reality to modern ears, yet old in the history of human thought, Vestige of Eden will be of interest to general readers and college students, while proving profitable for the academic as well.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. While there is a long-standing history of reflection among Catholics about the proper orientation of Catholicism towards American society, today the American Catholic community confronts a fundamentally new situation. Catholics face the dual threat of an ever more centralized and increasing…ly omnicompetent state and a new cultural ethos fundamentally incompatible with--and hostile to--Catholicism.Today, American Catholics no longer live as a religious minority in a Protestant society whose commitment to limited government and religious freedom affords Catholics considerable space to live out their faith commitments, and whose Christian character assures the existence of substantial moral commonality. Now, Catholics are a religious minority in a post-Christian society animated by an anthropology and public morality incompatible with Catholic truth and committed to the exclusion of the faith from public life.This new situation demands a rethinking on the part of American Catholics of their place in America and their relationship with American society. These essays seek to assist with this challenging task by casting light on this new situation and exploring its implications for the Church in America. Catholics are a religious minority in a post-Christian society animated by an anthropology and public morality incompatible with Catholic truth and committed to the exclusion of the faith from public life. This situation demands a rethinking on the part of American Catholics of their place in America and their relationship with American society.
