Описание: Jason Wilson approaches Paz`s poetics through his relationship with Andre Breton, the surrealist leader. This is a `spiritual biography` of a poet-thinker; a study of a fertile relationship; a re-evaluation of surrealism and, finally, a coping with those acute problems that all poets and readers of poetry must face in an age lacking an acceptable cultural tradition.

Описание: Transpoetic Exchange illuminates the poetic interactions between Octavio Paz (1914-1998) and Haroldo de Campos (1929-2003) from three perspectives--comparative, theoretical, and performative. The poem Blanco by Octavio Paz, written when he was Ambassador to India in 1966, and Haroldo de Campos' translation (or what he calls a 'transcreation') of that poem, published as Transblanco in 1986, as well as Campos' GalÁxias, written from 1963 to 1976, are the main axes around which the book is organized.
The volume is divided into three parts. 'Essays' unites seven texts by renowned scholars who focus on the relationship between the two authors, their impact and influence, and their cultural resonance by exploring explore the historical background and the different stylistic and cultural influences on the authors, ranging from Latin America and Europe to India and the U.S. The second section, 'Remembrances,' collects four experiences of interaction with Haroldo de Campos in the process of transcreating Paz's poem and working on Transblanco and GalÁxias. In the last section, 'Poems,' five poets of international standing--Jerome Rothenberg, Antonio Cicero, Keijiro Suga, AndrÉ Vallias, and Charles Bernstein--share their creations that demonstrate influence by and dialogue with the work of Paz and de Campos.
Paz and Campos, one from Mexico and the other from Brazil, were central figures in the literary history of the second half of the 20th century, in Latin America and beyond. Both poets signal the direction of poetry as that of translation, understood as the embodiment of otherness and of a poetic tradition that every new poem brings back as a Babel re-enacted.
This volume is a print corollary to and expansion of an international colloquium and poetic performance held at Stanford University in January 2010 and it offers a discussion of the role of poetry and translation from a global perspective. The collection holds great value for those interested in all aspects of literary translation and it enriches the ongoing debates on language, modernity, translation and the nature of the poetic object.

Описание: This study traces the history of Octavio Paz`s engagement with T. S. Eliot in Latin American and Spanish periodicals of the 1930s and 1940s. It establishes the Mexican context, or horizon of expectations, in which the earliest translations of Eliot appeared.
The first English-language book to place the works of Elena Garro (1916–1998) and Octavio Paz (1914–1998) in dialogue with each other, Uncivil Wars evokes the lives of two celebrated literary figures who wrote about many of the same experiences and contributed to the formation of Mexican national identity but were judged quite differently, primarily because of gender.
While Paz’s privileged, prize-winning legacy has endured worldwide, Garro’s literary gifts garnered no international prizes and received less attention in Latin American literary circles. Restoring a dual perspective on these two dynamic writers and their world, Uncivil Wars chronicles a collective memory of wars that shaped Mexico, and in turn shaped Garro and Paz, from the Conquest period to the Mexican Revolution; the Spanish Civil War, which the couple witnessed while traveling abroad; and the student massacre at Tlatelolco Plaza in 1968, which brought about social and political changes and further tensions in the battle of the sexes. The cultural contexts of machismo and ethnicity provide an equally rich ground for Sandra Cypess’s exploration of the tandem between the writers’ personal lives and their literary production. Uncivil Wars illuminates the complexities of Mexican society as seen through a tense marriage of two talented, often oppositional writers. The result is an alternative interpretation of the myths and realities that have shaped Mexican identity, and its literary soul, well into the twenty-first century.

Описание: An astonishing debut, If I Go Missing is timely, fearless, and necessary. In these poems, Octavio Quintanilla measures displacement with language and grapples with the longing to begin anew, to return to what was left unsaid, undone. Redemption is not always possible in the geography of these poems, but there is always a sense of hope. And by this pulse we are guided, the poet's unmistakable voice that, finally, clears the way so we may find our bearing.

Self-Hypnosis and Positive Affirmations is a book about how spellbinding joined with positive affirmations can be ground-breaking in treating various physical, mental, stress-related issue, fears and advancing wearing execution, among others.
This book is unique and handy and will profit any individual who wishes to research further.
The law of fascination depends on the possibility that everything known to humankind has an "extremity", implying that everything, from the nourishment you eat to the individuals you converse with to the things you state to the things you think, contains either positive or negative sort of vitality.
Notice that being with individuals who whine or tirade a great deal will in general cause you to feel awful, even though you're not encountering what they're experiencing - that is the law of fascination doing something amazing.
When you centre around negative stuff, then the increasingly negative thing will transpire.
Then again, when you centre around positive thoughts, then increasingly positive stuff will happen.
Luckily, there is an approach to control the law of fascination and make it work for you: by changing your convictions, utilising the intensity of positive affirmation.
Positive affirmations give you a new pair of eyes to see the world and therefore give you the courage to accomplish a ton of things you never knew were conceivable.

"Ultimately, happiness comes down to choosing between the discomfort of becoming aware of your mental afflictions and the discomfort of being ruled by them." - Robert Wright
Robert Wright knocks it out of the park creating a book that uses psychology, philosophy and neuroscience to defense the claims of buddhism and provide proof of their arguments. It definitely teaches you a lot of just about everything, but most importantly, it helps you to live a happy life.
Why Buddhism is True will teach you the terrible truth of our nature but also gives you a way to conquer it.
P.S. Why Buddhism is True is an outstanding book made to see the world and yourself in a completely different way.

Finalist for the 2021 Gerald Lampert Memorial Award
To devote oneself to the study of beauty is to offer footnotes to the universe for all the places and all the moments that one observes beauty. I can no longer grab beauty by her wrists and demand articulation or meaning. I can only take account of where things touch.
Part lyric essay, part prose poetry, Where Things Touch grapples with the manifold meanings and possibilities of beauty.
Drawing on her experiences as a physician-in-training, Orang considers clinical encounters and how they relate to the concept and very idea of beauty. Such considerations lead her to questions about intimacy, queerness, home, memory, love, and other aspects of human existence. Throughout, beauty is ultimately imagined as something inextricably tied to care: the care of lovers, of patients, of art and literature, and the various non-human worlds that surround us.
Eloquent and meditative in its approach, beauty, here, beyond base expectations of frivolity and superficiality, is conceived of as a thing to recover.Where Things Touch is an exploration of an essential human pleasure, a necessary freedom by which to challenge what we know of ourselves and the world we inhabit.
From the 2021 Gerald Lampert Memorial Award Jury:
Tapestry-like in form, Orang's lyrical poetic essay stitches together an exploration of beauty and aesthetics that is woven with humility and relationality to other. Her immense sense of craft and confidence make for breathstopping moments, over and over, while at the same time filling the senses with powerful and piercing revelation. 'Reading, ' she writes, 'is a kind of ecological activity'- and it is a privilege to situation your-self within Orang's topographies of love.
