Описание: The first collection of critical essays on the writing of Kathleen Jamie
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 These 16 newly commissioned critical essays and 7 previously unpublished poems by leading poets make up the first full-length study of Kathleen Jamie's writing.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.

Автор: Wolk-Jezierska Witomila Название: To Dad-Polish Officer Murdered in Katyn: Poems with Historical Essays ISBN: 1796020184 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781796020182 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 29420.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: The poems To Dad have been inspired by the trauma of one of the most horrific crimes in human history, enhanced by repercussions that followed the annihilation of the Polish officers such as the perpetuation of the Katyn lie, international cover-up, impunity of the perpetrators, inability to recover the remains of the victims, ruthless persecution and coercion of the families, massive censorship, disinformation, and above all, the conspiracy of silence that lasted for generations. The poems sharpen our perception of the intensity and uniqueness of depth and length of agony experienced by the Katyn families. They give testimony to unbearable adversity of several generations of the Polish people deeply harmed and wounded by the Soviet Union and abandoned, marginalized, and ignored by the entire world for decades. The poems are supplemented by historical essays, which put the eradication of the Polish elites in Katyn in the historical context.
