Sinossi

In 'Briefless Ballads and Legal Lyrics', author James Williams offers a remarkable fusion of humor and jurisprudence, creating a unique literary mosaic that blends poetic form with legal acumen. The volume, a second in its series, exhibits Williams's polished wit within the verse, boasting a style that is both erudite and accessible. As a part of DigiCat Publishing's commitment to preserving the textual heritage of human civilization, this work has been meticulously prepared for contemporary audiences. The text is not merely a collection of poems but a satirical commentary on the legal profession, echoing the literary lineage of law-inspired satire that traces back to the likes of John Donne and Jonathan Swift.

James Williams, though not widely recognized in the mainstream literary canon, appears to have been profoundly inspired by the intersections of law and language. His adeptness in converting the oft-perceived dryness of legal discourse into lyrical entertainment suggests a background steeped both in legal practice and in a love of literature. This interplay of Williams's professional expertise and his literary talent informs the rich tapestry of 'Briefless Ballads and Legal Lyrics', offering insights into the cultural and social mores of his time through the lens of legal wit.

'Briefless Ballads and Legal Lyrics' is a must-read for those interested in the marriage of law and literature, as well as for readers seeking a refreshing take on the traditionally solemn arena of jurisprudence. The book bestows upon its readers the dual gift of intellectual stimulation and comic relief, making it a delightful addition to the shelves of legal scholars, poetically inclined lawyers, and any literature aficionado with an appreciation for the unusual fusion of legal jargon and poetic jest.

    This haunting collection of 15 spoken word pieces penned by a widely published poet interweaves with sound design to create evocative and richly colored works of the imagination. Surreal, with a hint of the fairy tale, crossing grittiness and darkness with sweetness and light, the stories and images seem to emerge from the dream state.  The sound design includes original music, found sound, field recordings and electronics, providing a soundscape for the poetry.This highly original, multi-layered confluence of language and sound can be experienced intimately for the depth of its content, or enjoyed lightly for its strange dreamy atmosphere.

    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.   
     
    In this volume we have collected verse from poets born in Pennsylvania, one of the most famous states of the Union.  Its proud and illustrious history shines out through verse by such illustrious and venerated names as Stephen Vincent Benet, Louisa May Alcott, Wallace Stevens, Hilda Doolittle, Henry Van Dyke, and others as they explore its status, its nature and its role in shaping the world of verse.

    The Fabulanarchist Luxury Uprising

    Playful, formal, satirical and tender, the poems in The Fabulanarchist Luxury Uprising are wildly wide-ranging. Jack Houston whisks the reader through meditations on family life, the teachings of Lucretius, the sexual potential of Captain Barnacles, and dreams of a socialist utopia, managing to be both deeply weird and touching.
    In his debut pamphlet, Houston draws out and scrutinises the mundanities of life, showing how they can form part of something much bigger. His poems aim to awaken the capacity for revolution within us all, even if it only gets us as far as the roundabout in the local playpark.
    "In the year 2121, we're all now too aware that a sofa is simply a bench
    
    constructed from the hewn corpse
    
    of a tree, covered in a mesh made from the amniotic fibres
    
    of oppressedly mono-cropped cotton plants
    
    & filled with the plumage
    
    from many a murdered full-grown duck [...]"
