Riders to the Sea & Shadow of the Glen are both one act plays by J.M. Synge, an Irish playwright in the early 20th Century who made it his life's mission to accurately depict the people of the Irish Countryside. Riders to the Sea is a Tragedy in One Act about a mother and her daughters dealing with a familial curse that seems to cause all of the men in the family to die. Anxieties come to a peak when the last, remaining son is getting ready to ride out to sea in order to try and provide for his family. Shadow of the Glen is a contemplative Drama in One Act about how a women's integrity can be unjustly scrutinized through hearsay and speculation, and how forcing those opinions out into the open can have disastrous consequences for everyone involved.Ver libro
Poetry, prose, and photographs, explore the edges of languageEdges & Fray is an embodied meditation that cultivates receptivity and deep listening to the ways we inhabit language and its ethereal resilience. Combining close observation of birds' nests and the writing process, Danielle Vogel brings the reader into communion with language as a mode of presence. The frayed edges of consciousness are carefully arranged to suggest how writing, and the book, can serve as a site of radical transformation. Experimental and deeply grounded, this work is lyrical and patient. The text creates overlapping ecological fields, wherein each field is a system always in a state of becoming. Finding its strength in fragility, Edges & Fray is personal without feeling private, experimental without feeling programmatic. Its construction is intuitive and masterful, its many threads interwoven and intrinsically linked. This is a beautiful and inspiring book at the intersection of poetry, somatics, ecology, and divination.Ver libro

In these more modern time perhaps our first thoughts of an Elegy or a Lament is for someone’s passing. Wreathed in grief and death we think of a headstone on a silent grave and the memories that shelter within our hearts, slowly receding from one generation to the next, as an often lonely voice extols the virtues and traits of the one who has passed. But these two very early forms of poetry, dating back to at least Ovid and probably further, are also surprising in their lyrical touch. These are not just mournful and sad but also whimsical or rich with celebration and tribute as they journey through joy, laughter, love, tears and comfort. Our Classic Poets, who have specifically chosen to include the form in the title of their work, include the likes of Percy Bysshe Shelley, Thomas Chatterton, Aphra Behn, Rainer Maria Rilke, Radclyffe Hall and many others of equal measure are always surprising in their views, their analysis and their sharing of words and thoughts, offering feelings that mirror our own and provide a balm of many hues for our wounded and tender souls. 1 - Elegies and Laments - An Introduction 2 - Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard by Thomas Gray 3 - The Lament of Swordy Well by John Clare 4 - An Elegy on a Pile of Ruins by John Cunningham 5 - Lament by Rainer Maria Rilke 6 - Elegy - Supposed to Be Written in Barnet Churchyard by George Townsend 7 - Elegy by Thomas Chatterton 8 - A Lament by Radclyffe Hall 9 - An Elegy by Ben Jonson 10 - Laeta - A Lament by HP Lovecraft 11 - Angellica's Lament by Aphra Behn 12 - Amores - Book I Elegy V - Corinna in an Afternoon by Ovid 13 - Morning Lament by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 14 - The Wind's Lament by John Morris-Jones 15 - Noon Day Elegiacs by T W Rolleston 16 - Midnight Lamentation by Harold Munro 17 - February.
