Описание: The first collection of critical essays on the writing of Kathleen Jamie, one of the most outstanding poets of our times Kathleen Jamie’s works are classics. No one can read Kathleen Jamie and remain indifferent or unchanged. Nationally acclaimed since her first major publications in the 1980s, Jamie stands out from other contemporary poets in her exceptional musicality, her strikingly unusual perspectives, her wry humour, translucent imagery and hard-edged economy of expression. These 16 newly commissioned critical essays and 7 previously unpublished poems by leading poets make up the first full-length study of Kathleen Jamie’s writing. The essays discuss all of her poetry collections, including The Queen of Sheba (1994), Jizzen (1999), Mr and Mrs Scotland Are Dead: Poems 1980–94 (2002), The Tree House (2004) and The Overhaul (2012), as well as her travel writing, including Among Muslims (2002), her nature writing, Findings (2005) and Sightlines (2012) and her collaborative work, including Frissure (2013), with artist Brigid Collins. Whether engaging with national politics, with gender, with landscape and place, or with humanity’s relation to the natural environment, this volume demonstrates that Kathleen Jamie’s verse teaches us new ways of listening, of seeing and of living in the contemporary world. Readers will have access to 14 audio recordings of Kathleen Jamie reading from works discussed in the volume. www.euppublishing.com/page/kathleenjamie/audio Rachel Falconer is Professor of Modern English Literature at the University of Lausanne.

Автор: Kathleen Skott-Myhre, Korinne Weima, Helen Gibbs Название: Writing the Family: Women, Auto-Ethnography, and Family Work ISBN: 9460917488 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789460917486 Издательство: Brill Рейтинг: Цена: 119540.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: This is not a traditional book about the family. In a very essential way, it is a book about being a woman in relation to the current form of the family under capitalism in North America. The authors are three women whose interest in the family stems out of their own unique and varied experiences. The text is comprised of three autoethnographies that look at the family from radically distinct perspectives. Each section is rooted in the author’s own personal and professional life experience. The book explores multi-cultural family therapy, living inside a divorcing family, the role of child protective services, issues of class and race in a family’s identity, how media and pop psychology shape our view of the family, and what it is to be female in a patriarchal family system. All three women are currently working with young people in various capacities. Each section offers new ways to work together with young people to reshape the family so that it better serves those who live within it. Cover photo by Zakk Malecha
