Beschreibung

"Browning's Shorter Poems" showcases Robert Browning's mastery of poetic form and psychological depth. With a collection that spans several decades, Browning's verse employs dramatic monologues, lyrical expressions, and vivid imagery to explore themes of love, faith, and human struggle. His unique stylistic choices, including intricate rhyme schemes and compelling narrative techniques, situate him as a transformative figure in Victorian poetry, pushing boundaries while retaining accessibility that resonates with the modern reader. Browning's engagement with social concerns, including the complexities of identity and morality, is particularly evident in pieces such as "The Last Ride Together" and "Meeting at Night," where personal emotion interweaves seamlessly with broader existential queries. Robert Browning (1812-1889) emerged from a background rich in literary influence, encouraged by a self-taught education and an early passion for poetry. His marriage to fellow poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning deeply informed his work, fostering an environment conducive to creative exploration. The evolution of his poetic voice reflects his own intellectual pursuits and keen observations of human nature, cementing his reputation as one of the foremost poets of the Victorian era. This collection is essential for readers seeking not only to appreciate Browning's lyrical genius but also to engage with the profound human experiences he captures so expertly. Whether you are a seasoned poetry lover or new to Browning's work, "Browning's Shorter Poems" serves as a vital entry point into the rich tapestry of Victorian literature.

    From the pen of beloved poet Luci Shaw comes a new collection that celebrates inspired creativity as an antidote to chaos.
    The poet's own words best describe the heart of this pinnacle collection of new work by beloved writer Luci Shaw:
    
    Entropy: A measure of the molecular disorder, or randomness, of a system, its lack of order or predictability, resulting in a gradual decline into disorder. 
    
    Our universe, and the systems within it, constantly shift from their created states of order towards disorder, or chaos. The second law of thermodynamics asserts that entropy, or disorder, always increases with time. Creative human activities such as art, architecture, music, story or film are human efforts to halt and reverse this loss of meaning. Thus, smaller systems, like individual poems, become highly ordered as they receive energy from outside themselves, from the poet. They reverse entropy because they are moving from a state of disorder (all the random ideas, words and phrases available to the writer) into an orderly form designed by the writer to create meaningful images and concepts in the reader's mind (which is where the word "imag-ination" comes from.) This transfer of images, concepts and ideas into the mind of a reader is the task of poetry and the calling of the poet. Just as a composer of music gathers rhythms, notes, melodies, or harmony, organizing them into fugues or sonatas or concertos, so poets work and write to discover ways of arranging their responses to the world in words that introduce meaning and beauty in the mind of the reader. 
    
    Which is what I've been trying to do for most of my life.

    “Let all our voices gather and rise, up to the heavens and fill the sky.” Be Silent No Longer Pop Poetry Fusion These are compelling words, to be certain. They are The Brickley Bray Project’s call to action. As much as we believe we should act, or do, or participate, we all have difficulty taking that first step. The Brickley Bray Project wants that first step to be easy. Just listen. That’s all that’s required. And it is effortless. Diane Bray’s words are simple, rhyming, and straight to the point. Bill Bray has created music amidst inspiration from Diane’s words, allowing the tempo to unfold from the poetic rhythm and the music to evolve from the message. 
     
    The Silent No Longer Collection
     
     began as eight verses of a poem; written to express Diane’s solidarity with and support for the 99%/Occupy movements. It grew to a twenty-one verse call to action. As each day another social or humanitarian issue needed to be addressed, another verse came to life. Bill’s idea was to put the music around the poem becoming their Poetry Fusion, Be Silent No Longer. Thereafter, Diane’s words and Bill’s music became a Poetry Fusion mix of issues and positive messages of solutions. Some are as simple as thinking peace. All you need to do is click a button and listen as you go about your day. Let The Brickley Bray Project inspire you to stay informed, remain focused, and believe in a positive future. Remember, “Together We are One.”

    CBC BOOKS CANADIAN POETRY COLLECTIONS TO WATCH FOR IN SPRING 2023 
    SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2024 TRILLIUM BOOK AWARD FOR POETRY 
    Feminist poems both serious and absurd that question our obsession with productivity instead of with care. 
    Continuity Errors questions the privileging of work and productivity over rest and care from an ecological and feminist perspective. Written before and immediately after the birth of her first child, these poems try to imagine the future her son will inherit. Encounters with an unusual cast of characters – including lonely cryptids, unrepentant grifters, and persistent ghosts – provide incomplete answers, and while the continuity errors keep multiplying around her, Wright pauses to consider whether our devotion to innovation is keeping us stuck. 
    "Catriona Wright's Continuity Errors is a book of snaking moves and sneaking intellect, a book of style and fortitude and sass. Wright's always sharp and often eerie interrogations lead us through a world of cryptocurrency, grunt work, predictive policing, extinction, haute cuisine, billboard ads, smoke breaks, breast pumps; these are poems for our moment of onslaught and bewilderment that, having had the world forced down their throats, spit back." – Natalie Shapero, author of Popular Longing

    Religion once formed the rhythms and structures of society: marking time with calendars, carving out space for contemplation, creating connection, reinforcing legacy and morality. Now, for many, religion no longer runs the show. So where shall we find our magic? How do we celebrate milestones? Which texts can focus our attention but still offer space for inquiry, communion, and the chance to dwell for a dazzling instant in what can’t be said? The answer, Jennifer Michael Hecht?the historian, poet, and bestselling author of Doubt?tells us, is poetry. In twenty chapters built from years of questions and conversation with those looking for an authentic and meaningful life, Hecht offers ways to excavate the useful aspects of tradition and to replace what no longer feels true. Through cultures and poetic wisdom from around the world?Sappho, Rumi, Shakespeare, Issa, Tagore, Frost, Szymborska, Angelou, and others?she blends literary criticism with spiritual guidance rooted in the everyday. Linking our needs to particular poems, she helps us better understand those needs, ourselves, and poetry. Our capacity for wonder is one of the greatest joys of being human; The Wonder Paradox celebrates that instinct and that yearning. Like Julia Cameron’s The Artist’s Way and Anne Lamott’s Bird by Bird, it promises to inspire generations.
