Описание:

Adonis in the Pyrenees: another "conversation in the mountains" where a multiplicity of orients and occidents intermingle, where dialogue between Adonis, the major Arab-language poet at work today, and Pierre Joris, nomad poet between the United States, Europe, and North Africa, becomes polylogue, exchanging reflections that range from the destructive role all monotheisms play in history -- in relation to woman, but also to the power structures throughout cultures -- to questions of poetics and the possible role of the spiritual in contemporary poethics. These conversations -- under the general title "Religion is an answer, poetry a question" -- took place in June in the small village of Germ-Louron in the French Pyrenees in the context of "Les Porteurs de Mots /The Word-Carriers," an annual cultural festival organized by Franck Morini re. These conversations were framed by a range of events, musical & theatrical performances, poetry readings and talks.

Описание: Conversations with Dana Gioia is the first collection of interviews with the internationally known poet and public intellectual, covering every stage of his busy, polymathic career. Dana Gioia (b. 1950) has made many contributions to contemporary American literature and culture, including but not limited to crafting a personal poetic style suited to the age; leading the revival of rhyme, meter, and narrative through New Formalism; walloping the "intellectual ghetto" of American poetry through his epochal article "Can Poetry Matter?"; helping American poetry move forward by organizing influential conferences; providing public service and initiating nationwide arts projects such as Poetry Out Loud through his leadership of the National Endowment for the Arts; and editing twenty best-selling literary anthologies widely used in American classrooms. Taken together, the twenty-two collected interviews increase our understanding of Gioia's poetry and poetics, offer aesthetic pleasure in themselves, and provide a personal encounter with a writer who has made poetry matter. The book presents the actual voice of Dana Gioia, who speaks of his personal and creative life and articulates his unique vision of American culture and poetry.

Описание: Conversations with W.S. Merwin is the first collection of interviews with former U.S. Poet Laureate W.S. Merwin. Spanning almost six decades of conversations, the collection touches on such topics as the early influences on Merwin of Robert Graves and Ezra Pound, his location within the twin poles of Walt Whitman and Henry David Thoreau, his extraordinary work as a translator, as well as his decades-long interest in environmental conservation. Anticipating the current sustainability movement and the debates surrounding major and minor literatures, Merwin was, and still is, a visionary ahead of his time at the beginning of the 21st century. At age 88, William Stanley Merwin is among the most distinguished poets, translators, and thinkers in the United States. A major link between the period of literary modernism and its contemporary extensions, Merwin has been a major voice in American letters for close to eight decades, and his translations from the Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, and others, have earned him unanimous praise and admiration. Merwin has also been on the forefront of the environmental movement and articulated concerns about ecology and sustainability long before they became fashionable. Now, for the first time, Conversations with W. S. Merwin offers insight into the various dimensions of Merwin's thought by treating his interviews as a self-standing category in his oeuvre. More than casual narratives of contiguity interpreting, en passant, the occasional poem or relaying an occasional experience, they afford literary and cultural historians a view into the larger through-lines of Merwin's thinking. Like many poets aware of literary tradition and cultural ferment, Merwin sees his work in conversation with the larger developments of his time(s) and with the writers that have preceded and parallel him. In the aggregate, these interviews allow for a reconstruction of his literary and cultural roots-stations in the making of a writer and thinker, activist and ecologist, and indeed po te-philosophe. Conversations with W.S. Merwin will be an indispensable resource for readers and scholars for decades to come.

Описание: The Artist as Mystic is a set of lyric conversations between aphorists Yahia Lababidi and Alex Stein. These conversations constitute what Australians call a 'Songline'-a set of sacred songs that allow the reader/listener to navigate through an unknown terrain, in this case, populated by tortured and ecstatic souls: Kafka, Baudelaire, Nietzsche, Rilke, Kierkegaard and Ekelund. These visionaries are masterfully evoked in this very fine work of biography and criticism. But these writings are more than the sum of notes on a page, they are song. The Artist as Mystic passes the test of all great writing, not only to delight, but to leave us knowing something of the subject, and ourselves, that we hadn't considered before.

Описание: Since the publication of Serena in 2008 earned him a nomination for the PEN/Faulkner fiction prize, Ron Rash (b. 1953) has gained attention as one of the South's finest writers. Rash draws upon his family's history in Appalachia, where most members have worked with their hands as farmers or millworkers. In the Grit Lit or Rough South genre, Rash maintains a prominent place as a skilled craftsman and triple threat, publishing four collections of poetry, six short story collections, and six novels. Though best known as an Appalachian writer, Rash's reach has grown to extend well beyond Appalachia and the American South, spreading to an international audience.Conversations with Ron Rash collects twenty-two interviews with the award-winning author and provides a look into Rash's writing career from his first collection of short stories, The Night the New Jesus Fell to Earth in 1994 through his 2015 novel, Above the Waterfall. The collection includes four interviews from outside the United States, two of which appear in English for the first time. Spanning sixteen years, these interviews demonstrate the disciplined writing process of an expert writer, Rash's views of literature on a local and a global scale, his profound respect for the craft of the written word, and his ongoing goal to connect with his readers.

Описание: Does Thoreau belong to the past or to the future? Instead of canonizing him as a celebrant of "pure" nature apart from the corruption of civilization, the essays in Thoreauvian Modernities reveal edgier facets of his work - how Thoreau is able to unsettle as well as inspire and how he is able to focus on both the timeless and the timely.

Описание: He again tops the crowd - he surpasses himself, the old iron brought to the white heat of simplicity."" That's what Robert Lowell said of the poetry of Stanley Kunitz (1905-2006) and his evolving artistry. The interviews and conversations contained in this volume derive from four decades of Kunitz's distinguished career. They touch on aesthetic motifs in his poetry, the roots of his work, his friendships in the sister arts of painting and sculpture, his interactions with Lowell and Theodore Roethke, and his comments on a host of poets: John Keats, Walt Whitman, Randall Jarrell, Wallace Stevens, and Anna Akhmatova.Kunitz emerged from a mid-sized industrial town in central Massachusetts, surviving family tragedy and a sense of personal isolation and loneliness, to become an eloquent spokesman for poetry and for the power of the human imagination. Kunitz has commented, ""If we want to know what it felt like to be alive at any given moment in the long odyssey of the race, it is to poetry we must turn."" His own odyssey from ""metaphysical loneliness"" to a sense of community with fellow writers and artists - by building institutions like Poets House and the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown, Massachusetts - is ever present in these interviews.
