Beschreibung

In "Christabel" and "Kubla Khan," Samuel Taylor Coleridge masterfully weaves a tapestry of dreams, supernatural elements, and themes of creation and desire. Both poems exemplify the Romantic era's fascination with the sublime, utilizing vivid imagery, lyrical exploration, and an innovative narrative style to elevate the poetic form. "Christabel" presents a haunting tale of innocence and seduction, while the fragmented nature of "Kubla Khan" reflects the complexities of the creative process and the interplay between imagination and reality, showcasing Coleridge's ability to evoke emotional depth through intricate meter and rich symbolism. Coleridge, a prominent figure in the Romantic movement, was deeply influenced by his philosophical inquiries and personal struggles, including opium addiction, which informed his exploration of altered states of consciousness in these works. His friendship with William Wordsworth and the broader Romantic context of the late 18th and early 19th centuries provided him with an unique lens through which to examine the intersection of nature, human emotion, and fantastic realms, revealing the tension between rational thought and mystical experience. This collection is essential for readers seeking to delve into the complexities of Romantic poetry. Coleridge's unique voice continues to resonate, inviting a deeper understanding of language and imagination. "Christabel" and "Kubla Khan" are not merely poems but portals into the profound emotional and intellectual landscapes of one of literature's most enigmatic minds.

    Hamlet and Macbeth are two dramas by William Shakespeare that have been thrilling audiences for centuries. Both have been adapted to radio and film and continue to be taught in high schools and universities. But as with most of Shakespeare' s works, modern audiences sometimes need some help absorbing elements of both plays. In a series of lectures, literary scholar Elizabeth McNamer provides engaging insights into these two Shakespeare classics.
    Providing glimpses into each play' s most compelling moments, Dr. McNamer first focuses on Hamlet, regarded by many as the greatest drama ever written. Because he is given much to philosophizing, the Danish prince fails to act— and this procrastination becomes Hamlet' s downfall. McNamer then tackles Shakespeare's most gruesome tragedy. Macbeth, who has murdered his way to the crown, finds there only a murderer's reward— no peace, no love, no honor, no friends— only curses. While these lectures are grounded in scholarly research, they are also accessible for contemporary audiences, helping them appreciate more fully these two great works.

    “Momaday must be ranked among the greatest of our contemporary writers.”—American Scholar 
    From Pulitzer Prize winner and revered literary master N. Scott Momaday, a beautiful and enchanting new poetry collection, at once a celebration of language, imagination, and the human spirit. 
    “Language and the imagination work hand in hand, and together they enable us to reveal us to ourselves in story. That is indeed a magical process. . . . We imagine and we dream, and we translate our dreams into language.” —from the Preface 
    A singular voice in American letters, Momaday’s love of language and storytelling are on full display in this brilliant new collection comprising one hundred sketches or “dream drawings”—furnishings of the mind—as he calls them. Influenced by his Native American heritage and its oral storytelling traditions, here are prose poems about nature, animals, warriors, and hunters, as well as meditations that explore themes of love, loss, time, and memory. Each piece, full of wisdom and wonder, showcases Momaday’s extraordinary lyrical talent, the breadth of his imagination, and the transformative power of his writing.  
    Poignant, inspired, and timeless, this is a collection that will nourish the soul.

    From the author of The Baudelaire Fractal, a poetry classic, with new work
    		 
    In 2004, boldly original poet Lisa Robertson published a chapbook, Rousseau’s Boat, poems culled from years of notebooks that are, nevertheless, by no means autobiographical. In 2010, she expanded the work into a full-length book, R’s Boat. During the pandemic, she was drawn back into decades of journals to shape Boat. These poems bring fresh vehemence to Robertson’s ongoing examination of the changing shape of feminism, the male-dominated philosophical tradition, the daily forms of discourse, and the possibilities of language itself.
