The poems, steeped in the Romantic tradition, resonate with personal and universal struggles, providing insight into Bront√´'s inner world and the broader human experience. Often overshadowed by her notable novel, "Wuthering Heights," this poetry reflects Bront√´'s keen observation of the natural world and her exploration of the sublime, all while challenging the conventional constraints of 19th-century literary norms. Emily Bront√´ (1818-1848) emerged from the moors of Yorkshire, a landscape that deeply influenced her artistry. As one of the Bront√´ sisters, she was part of a literary family that encouraged her creative expression. Despite leading a largely reclusive life, her profound introspection and keen intelligence culminated in a rich poetic legacy that reveals the struggles and aspirations of her time. Bront√´'s unique perspective as a woman writer in a male-dominated literary world adds a layer of complexity to her work, inviting critical examination and appreciation. This collection is highly recommended for readers seeking to delve into the emotional and thematic richness of Bront√´'s work. Perfect for scholars, students, and poetry enthusiasts, "The Complete Poetry of Emily Bront√´" provides an essential exploration of her literary genius, enhancing our understanding of both her poetry and the context in which it was crafted.

Paradise Lost

John Milton

Paradise Lost is an epic poem written by the Puritan English poet John Milton between 1658 and 1663, and published in 1667. This is a period of English history which encompasses the end of Oliver Cromwell's Commonwealth and the restoration of the monarchy in 1660.
Perhaps reflecting some of his country's turmoil during Milton's life, Paradise Lost deals with revolution in Heaven by Satan and his followers against God, their defeat and banishment to Hell, and their subsequent plotting of revenge, leading ultimately to Satan beguiling Eve in Paradise to taste the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge against the explicit command of God. Milton's vivid and poetic description of these events is both dramatic and compelling. The work gained swift acceptance and has always remained a popular and important part of English literature.
Originally published in ten books, a second edition was published in 1674 arranged into twelve books, the form in which it appears here.

Changes - Chapter 5

Open Boundaries

Chapter 5 - Changes - The story behind the song: The journey we take through life will lead us to paths that either advance us or cause our decline, but we are the ones who must decide which path to take, which change we make, for these are our choices and our changes that ultimately define who we become. 
 
Author Bio: 
Set on creating a worldwide movement and bridging the gap between mental health and EDM music. Open Boundaries looks at music as a piece of the mind, something that transgresses languages, borders and backgrounds, a form of emotive connection that lets people forget, love, release, bring joy, cry, and expose their inner selves. The music itself is a form of expression based on personal self-realizations, with each release being built from pieces of the artists mind and then encapsulated in hard hitting beats, melodic rap flows, highly relatable lyrics and heart-felt vocals, all blended together and realized into in 3 versions; including the exclusively unique 'Message Bound' mixes. 
 
Each release is then supported by the storytelling within the release of the ‘Chapters’, which define the meaning behind each song. 
 
The artist remains anonymous for the purposes of being all inclusive to every person out there, there is no connection to any country or any background with all the focus being on the music and the lyrics, rather than the person behind it. This has allowed Open Boundaries to attract a global reach and fanbase who proclaim their devotion to the artist, along with their unwavering support to the ethos behind it.

Born in the USA - Exploring...

Emma Lazarus, Alan Seeger,...

Poetry. A form of words that seems so elegantly simple in one verse and so cleverly complex in another. Each poet has a particular style, an individual and unique way with words and yet each of us seems to recognise the path and destination of where the verses lead, even if sometimes the full comprehension may be a little beyond us.

Through the centuries every culture has produced verse to symbolize and to describe everything from everyday life, natural wonders, the human condition and even in its more hubristic moments, the crushing triumph of an enemy.

In the volumes of this series we take a look through the prism of individual regions of the United States through the centuries and decades.

The United States may be many things: the world’s policeman, a bully, a shameless purveyor of mass market culture but it also, in its better moments, a standard bearer for truth, transparency, equality and the more positive qualities of democracy.

Little wonder that’s its poets are rightly acknowledged as wonders of their art. Leading lights in the fight against slavery and for equality, even if the rest of the Nation is finding it problematic to catch up.

New York state is more often overshadowed by its energetic and overwhelming five boroughs of its namesake city. But among its other cities, towns and countryside is a veritable who’s who of classic poets including Walt Whitman, Edith Wharton, Alan Seeger, Herman Melville and Philip Freneau. Their words and verse record and reveal a wide range of topics and subjects as they focus their poetic talents on the State of their birth.

Enough Rope - Poems - Unabridged

Dorothy Parker

The poems in this collection range from the satiric to the sentimental; wickedly clever and yet elegantly and expertly constructed. Parker's mastery of the turn of phrase or the cynical or sardonic final line instantly grabbed the reading public's attention and propelled Parker into the national spotlight, which she would not relinquish for the rest of her life.  Dorothy Parker - social commentator, political reformer and legendary wit - has enjoyed a special place in American culture for almost a century and "Enough Rope" is an early example of Parker's unique and wry commentary on modern life.
