Download and read online ebook Poetry in Exile write by Josef Hrdlička. This book was released on 2020-09-01. Poetry in Exile available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. In his book Josef Hrdlička opens the question of what exactly constitutes Exile Poetry, and indeed whether it amounts to a category as fundamental as Romantic or Bucolic lyricism. He covers the intricately complex and diverse topic of exile by exploring selected literary texts from antiquity to the present, giving due attention to writers that have influenced the exile discourse; from Ovid, Goethe and Baudelaire to the thinkers and poets of the 20th century like Adorno or Saint-John Perse. Against this backdrop of exile poetics, he turns his attention to Czech poets who left their homeland after the Communist Coup of 1948 and were notable contributors to Czech literature abroad. Hrdlička considers the works of Ivan Blatný, Milada Součková, Ivan Diviš and Petr Král, to show the continuity and changes in the western poetic tradition and expressions of exile.

This book was released on 2012-01-01. The Forbidden available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. During the 1979 revolution, Iranians from all walks of life, whether Muslim, Jewish, Christian, socialist, or atheist, fought side-by-side to end one tyrannical regime, only to find themselves in the clutches of another. When Khomeini came to power, freedom of the press was eliminated, religious tolerance disappeared, women’s rights narrowed to fit within a conservative interpretation of the Quran, and non-Islamic music and literature were banned. Poets, writers, and artists were driven deep underground and, in many cases, out of the country altogether. This moving anthology is a testament to both the centuries-old tradition of Persian poetry and the enduring will of the Iranian people to resist injustice. The poems selected for this collection represent the young, the old, and the ancient. They are written by poets who call or have called Iran home, many of whom have become part of a diverse and thriving diaspora.

Download and read online ebook Music for Exile write by Nehassaiu deGannes. This book was released on 2021. Music for Exile available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Poetry. Trekking from the U.S. to the Caribbean and Canada--wind at their back, ear to the ground, listening for the logos of what trembles underfoot-- the poems in MUSIC FOR EXILE syncretize a host of lyrical, received and invented forms to beckon a mythic assemblage, an aggregation of personal and historical losses, intimate and en masse. From walking up Canefield River to hearing a thief on the stairs in Philadelphia, from dredging the voices of New England's enslaved to confronting familial grief, these poems trouble the ache, that ironic hunger for home when home is itself a vortex of violence. In poems of place, poems of encounter, domestic epics and epistolary calls, deGannes allows both the narrative and associative to limn the caesurae in one immigrant woman's arc. The poems trace and retrace, they crossover, they draw poison out they fissure desire and proclaim no one can say gone is gone, enacting and inviting an expansive reckoning of all that has brought us here. From this, might be salvaged a radical sense of belonging, Glissant's knowledge of the Whole, greater for having been at the abyss. MUSIC FOR EXILE is Nehassaiu deGannes' first book-length collection of poems.
