Reading Dante Gabriel Rossetti The Painter as Poet

Reading Dante Gabriel Rossetti The Painter as Poet

A revolutionary figure throughout his career Dante Gabriel Rossetti’s work provides a distinctly revolutionary lens through which the Victorian period can be viewed. Suggesting that Rossetti’s work should be approached through his poetry Brian Donnelly argues that it is both inscribed by and inscribes the development of verbal as well as visual culture in the Victorian era. In his discussions of modernity aestheticism and material culture he identifies Rossetti as a central figure who helped define the terms through which we approach the cultural productions of this period. Donnelly begins by articulating a method for reading Rossetti’s poetry that highlights the intertextual relations within and between the poetry and paintings. His interpretations of such poems as the 'Mary’s Girlhood' sonnets the sonnet sequence The House of Life and 'The Orchard-Pit' in relationship to paintings such as The Girlhood of Mary Virgin and Ecce Ancilla Domini! shed light on Victorian ideals of femininity on consumer culture and on the role of gender hierarchies in Victorian culture. Situating Rossetti’s poetry as the key to all of his work Donnelly also makes a case for its centrality in its representation of the dominant discourses of the late Victorian period: faith sex consumption death and the nature of representation itself. | Reading Dante Gabriel Rossetti The Painter as Poet

Open Mic Night Campus Programs That Champion College Student Voice and Engagement

Open Mic Night Campus Programs That Champion College Student Voice and Engagement

WINNER OF 2018 AERA DIVISION B OUTSTANDING BOOK AWARD FOR OUTSTANDING EDITED COLLECTION IN CURRICULUM STUDIESWhile campuses across the United States have been offering spoken word programs for over 20 years little attention has been paid to their purpose and impact beyond their contribution to the campus social aesthetic. There is an increasing understanding that performance poetry and spoken word is much more than entertainment. Within disciplines such as English Ethnic Women’s and Cultural Studies scholarship has identified spoken word’s role in developing political agency among young adults; its utility for promoting authentic youth voice; and its importance as a tool of cultural engagement. This book – compiled by scholar artists including internationally recognized spoken word performers – offers guidance to student affairs professionals on using spoken word as a tool for college student engagement activism and civic awareness. It makes the case that campus event spaces need to transcend their association with the theatre or art departments to provide a venue where students are allowed to be different and find opportunities for personal and intellectual development and civic engagement. Open mic nights offer college students a way to speak out advocate lead educate and explore with their peers. This book presents a mix of critical essays and college student writing that explore themes of spoken word student engagement and campus inclusion and address these key topics:• Spoken word as an educational civic engagement and personal development tool (particularly among traditionally marginalized communities)• The links between spoken word and social activism (art as social action; art as a form of civic leadership)• The importance of privileging student voice in student affairs programming (even when they yell; even when they’re angry)• The challenges that come with engaging students in exploring intersecting concepts like race gender and class• Considerations for creative and intentional spoken word programming (What does a creative program look like?) • Scaling up for sustainability (through student affairs/academic affairs partnerships study abroad collaborations etc. ). | Open Mic Night Campus Programs That Champion College Student Voice and Engagement

Just Literature Philosophical Criticism and Justice

Just Literature Philosophical Criticism and Justice

In Just Literature Tzachi Zamir introduces the idea of 'philosophical criticism' as an innovative approach to interpreting literary texts. Throughout the book Zamir uses the theme of justice as a case study for this new critical approach. By using ‘philosophical criticism’ Zamir posits that a stronger grasp of the idea of justice can increase one’s understanding of literature and thus its value. He offers philosophical readings of works by Dante Shakespeare Toni Morrison J. M. Coetzee and Philip Roth to explore the relationship between aesthetic and epistemic value. Zamir argues that while literature and philosophy remain separate entities examining the two in tandem may help inform the study of both. Offering an inventive twist on an established dynamic this book is essential reading for any student or scholar of literature or philosophy. | Just Literature Philosophical Criticism and Justice

The Poet as Believer A Theological Study of Paul Claudel

The Poet as Believer A Theological Study of Paul Claudel

This is the first comprehensive study of the theological significance of Paul Claudel a poet frequently cited by literary-minded theologians in Europe and theologically-minded poets (such as von Balthasar de Lubac and Eliot). His writing combines cosmology and history Bible and metaphysics liturgy and the drama of human personality. His work which continues to arouse discussion in France was acclaimed in his lifetime as the 'summa poetica' of a new Dante. Aidan Nichols' study demonstrates how Claudel's oeuvre which is not only poetry but theatre and prose including biblical commentaries constitutes a rich resource for constructive doctrine liturgical preaching and theological reflection. As the comparable example of Geoffrey Hill Professor of Poetry at Oxford suggests Aidan Nichols illuminates how Claudel's synthesis of many dimensions remains an important way of practising poetry in the Christian tradition today. | The Poet as Believer A Theological Study of Paul Claudel

Poetry and Psychoanalysis The Opening of the Field

Poetry and Psychoanalysis The Opening of the Field

Poetry and Psychoanalysis: The Opening of the Field provides a guide to applying a poet’s imagination and precision of language to the healing endeavours of psychoanalysis while making a lucid journey through 2 000 years of transformative poetry from Virgil Dante and Blake to the contemporary poet Claudia Rankine. Patients enter treatment with the hope of being recognized and the hope for transformation of a painful experience. David Shaddock shows how poetry can guide psychoanalysts towards meeting that hope. The book is based on the proposition that an accurate recognition of what is leads to the opening of what could be. The imaginative space that opens between poem and reader or therapist and patient can be a place of healing and transformation. Poetry and Psychoanalysis will appeal to psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists interested in using literature and creativity as inspiration for both their clinical work and personal growth as well as all who love poetry. | Poetry and Psychoanalysis The Opening of the Field

Lars von Trier's Cinema Excess Evil and the Prophetic Voice

Lars von Trier's Cinema Excess Evil and the Prophetic Voice

This book offers a bold and dynamic examination of Lars von Trier’s cinema by interweaving philosophy and theology with close attention to aesthetics through style and narrative. It explores the prophetic voice of von Trier's films juxtaposing them with Ezekiel's prophecy and Ricoeur’s symbols of evil myth and hermeneutics of revelation. The films of Lars von Trier are categorized as extreme cinema inducing trauma and emotional rupture rarely paralleled while challenging audiences to respond in new ways. This volume argues that the spiritual biblical content of the films holds a key to understanding von Trier’s oeuvre of excess. Spiritual conflict is the mechanism that unpacks the films’ notorious excess with explosive centrifugal force. By confronting the spectator with spiritual conflict through evil von Trier's films truthfully and prophetically expose the spectator’s complicity in personal and structural evil forcing self-examination through theological themes analogous to the prophetic voice of the transgressive Hebrew prophet Ezekiel his prophecy and its form of delivery. Placed in context with the prophetic voices of Dante Milton Dostoyevsky O’Connor and Tarkovsky this volume offers a theoretical framework beyond von Trier. It will be of great interest to scholars in film studies film and philosophy film and theology. | Lars von Trier's Cinema Excess Evil and the Prophetic Voice

Renaissance Man

Renaissance Man

Considering such witnesses of the time as Shakespeare Dante Petrarch Michelangelo Machiavelli Montaigne More and Bacon Agnes Heller looks at both the concept and the image of a Renaissance man. The concept was generalised and accepted by all; its characteristic features were man as a dynamic being creating and re-creating himself throughout his life. The images of man however were very different having been formed through the ideas and imagination of artists politicians philosophers scientists and theologians and viewed from the different aspects of work love fate death friendship devotion and the concepts of space and time. Renaissance Man thus stood as both as a leading protagonist of his time one who led and formulated the substantial attitudes of his time and as one who stood as a witness on the sidelines of the discussion. This book first published in English in 1978 is based on the diverse but equally important sources of autobiographies works of art and literature and the writings of philosophers. Although she uses Florence as a starting point Agnes Heller points out that the Renaissance was a social and cultural phenomenon common to all of Western Europe; her Renaissance Man is thus a figure to be found throughout Europe.

A Semiotics of Multimodality and Signification in the Divine Comedy

A Semiotics of Multimodality and Signification in the Divine Comedy

A new critical method for the Divine Comedy which focuses not only on language-as-writing but also and equally on other discursive modes that the Divine Comedy authorizes. Multimodality was already present in Dante’s time and the reception of the Divine Comedy took place multimodally. Thus a theoretical study of multimodality carried out under the semiotic lens sheds light on how and why a mode is more effective than another and/or how they may combine in producing signification and new ontologies warranted by Dante’s text. Also we do not yet have a critical theory that allows us to understand the function of multimodality for the creation of new forms of signification and of clarifying the ontological boundaries set forth by different modalities. It is a new and original study which contributes to the advancement of Dante Studies Literary Criticism (with a focus on literary semiotics) Multimedia/Multiliteracy philosophy of language communication and education.

Representations of Eve in Antiquity and the English Middle Ages

Representations of Eve in Antiquity and the English Middle Ages

As the first woman Eve was the pattern for all her daughters. The importance of readings of Eve for understanding how women were viewed at various times is a critical commonplace but one which has been only narrowly investigated. This book systematically explores the different ways in which Eve was understood by Christians in antiquity and in the English Middle Ages and it relates these understandings to female social roles. The result is an Eve more various than she is often depicted by scholars. Beginning with material from the bible the Church Fathers and Jewish sources the book goes on to look at a broad selection of medieval writing including theological works and literary texts in Old and Middle English. In addition to dealing with famous authors such as Augustine Aquinas Dante and Chaucer the writings of authors who are now less well-known but who were influential in their time are explored. The book allows readers to trace the continuities and discontinuities in the way Eve was portrayed over a millennium and a half and as such it is of interest to those interested in women or the bible in the Middle Ages. | Representations of Eve in Antiquity and the English Middle Ages

Eternal Youth and the Myth of Deconstruction An Archetypal Reading of Jacques Derrida and Judith Butler

Eternal Youth and the Myth of Deconstruction An Archetypal Reading of Jacques Derrida and Judith Butler

In Eternal Youth and the Myth of Deconstruction Bret Alderman puts forth a compelling thesis: Deconstruction tells a mythic story. Through an attentive examination of multiple texts and literary works he elucidates this story in psychological and philosophical terms. Deconstruction the method of philosophical and literary analysis originated by Jacques Derrida arises from what Carl Jung called “a kind of readiness to produce over and over again the same or similar mythical ideas. ” In the case of deconstruction such ideas bear a striking resemblance to a figure that Jungian and Post-Jungian writers refer to as the puer aeternus or eternal youth. To make his case in addition to a careful analysis of numerous Derridean texts he offers readings of literary works by Milan Kundera J. M. Barrie Dante Apuleius and others. These texts help illustrate that deconstruction’s preoccupations over questions of presence deferral authority limits time and representation are also recurrent issues for the eternal youth as described by Marie-Louise Von Franz and James Hillman. Judith Butler’s deconstruction of sex and gender reflects similar patterns and she features in this work as a contemporary exemplar of the deconstructive approach. Eternal Youth and the Myth of Deconstruction will be a compelling read for both students and teachers of depth psychology and continental philosophy. The clarity of its style will be appealing to advanced scholars and educated laypersons alike. | Eternal Youth and the Myth of Deconstruction An Archetypal Reading of Jacques Derrida and Judith Butler

Titanic Corrosion

Titanic Corrosion

The word “titanic” reminds one of the majestic ship Titanic and James Cameron’s epic romance movie Titanic—in many cases the film first and the ship next. The Titanic was the world’s largest passenger ship when it entered service measuring 269 m (882 feet) in length and the largest man-made moving object on earth. The colossal ship and the epic movie inspired the authors Susai Rajendran (professor of chemistry) and Gurmeet Singh (a renowned academic administrator and an internationally reputed expert in the field of corrosion science and smart materials) to study why the Titanic collapsed. The main reason seems to be bimetallic corrosion also known as galvanic corrosion. This book discusses various aspects of galvanic corrosion namely causes consequences methods of control and case studies. It also reports research on the causes of corrosion of the sunken ship including microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) and metallurgical failure. The book is a great reference for research scholars in the field of corrosion graduate- and postgraduate-level students the general public and marine engineers. | Titanic Corrosion

T. S. Eliot’s Ariel Poems Making Sense of the Times

T. S. Eliot’s Ariel Poems Making Sense of the Times

T. S. Eliot once stated that the supreme poet in writing himself writes his time. In saying that he honoured Dante and Shakespeare but this pithy remark fittingly characterises his own work including The Ariel Poems with which he promptly and pointedly responded to the problems of his times. Published with unwavering regularity a poem a year the Ariels were composed in the period when Eliot was mainly writing prose; and like his prose they reverberated with diverse contemporary issues ranging from the revision of the Book of Common Prayer to the translations of Heidegger to the questions of leadership and populism. In order to highlight the poems' historical specificity this study seeks to outline the constellations of thought connecting Eliot’s poetry and prose. In addition it attempts to expose the Ariels’ shared arc of meaning an unobtrusive incarnational metaphor determining the perspective from which they propose an unorthodox understanding of the epoch— an underlying pattern of thought bringing them together into a conceptually discrete set. This is the first study that both universalizes and historicises the series striving to disclose the regular without suppressing the random. Approaching the series as a system of orderly disorder the notion very much at home with chaos theory it suggests new intellectual contexts offering interpretations that are either fresh or significantly reangled.

Milton's Italy Anglo-Italian Literature Travel and Connections in Seventeenth-Century England

Milton's Italy Anglo-Italian Literature Travel and Connections in Seventeenth-Century England

This book joins a growing trend toward transnational literary studies and revives a venerable tradition of Anglo-Italian scholarship centering on John Milton. Correcting misperceptions that have diminished the international dimensions of his life and work it broadly surveys Milton’s Italianate studies travels poetics politics and religious convictions. While his debts to Machiavelli and other classical republicans are often noted few contemporary critics have explored the Italian sources of his anti-papal anti-episcopal and anti-formalist religious outlook. Relying on Milton’s own testimony this book explores its roots in Dante Petrarch Ariosto and that great Venetian enemy of the pope Paolo Sarpi thereby correcting a recent tendency to make native English contexts dominate his development. This tendency is partly due to a mistaken belief that Italy was in steep decline during and after Milton’s travels of 1638-1639 the period immediately before he produced his prose critiques of the English Church its canon law and its censorship. Yet these were also fundamentally Italian issues that he skillfully adapted to meet contemporary English needs a practice enabled by his extraordinarily positive experience of the Italian language cities academies and music the latter of which ultimately influenced Milton’s operatic drama Samson Agonistes. Besides republicanism and theology (radical doctrines of free grace and free will) equally strong influences treated here include Italian Neoplatonism cosmology and romance epic. By making these traditions his own Milton became what John Steadman once described as an Italianate Englishman whose classical literary tastes and critical orientation…were…to a considerable extent molded by Italian critics (1976) a view that is fully credited and updated here. | Milton's Italy Anglo-Italian Literature Travel and Connections in Seventeenth-Century England
