Описание: Aurora Leigh is the foremost example of the mid-nineteenth-century poem of contemporary life. This verse-novel is a richly detailed representation of the early Victorian age. The social panorama extends from the slums of London, through the literary world, to the upper classes and a number of superb satiric portraits: an aunt with rigidly conventional notions of female education; Romney Leigh, the Christian socialist; Lord Howe, the amateur radical; SirBlaise Delorme, the ostentatious Roman Catholic; and the unscrupulous society beauty Lady Waldemar. However, the dominant presence in the work is the narrator, Aurora Leigh herself. From early years in Italy and adolescence in the West Country to the vocational choices, creative struggles, and emotional entanglements of her first decade of adult life, Aurora Leigh develops her ideas on art, love, God, the Woman Question, and society. This is the first critically edited and fully annotated edition for almost a century.

Описание:
Aurora Leigh (1856) is an epic poem by English Romantic poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning. Described by Browning as "a novel in verse," Aurora Leigh is primarily the story of its titular heroine, an intelligent woman and ambitious poet whose talent is matched only by her skill for self-doubt. Although it is narrated in the first person, the poem also concerns itself with the character Marian Erle, a woman rescued from a life on the streets by Aurora's cousin Romney, who loves both women in complex and varying ways. Recognized as one of the most important poems of the nineteenth century, Aurora Leigh is notable for its use of the epic form--traditionally masculine, and concerned with subjects such as war, history, and the gods--in order to tell a story centered on talented and uniquely independent women.
Born in Florence to a Tuscan mother and English father, and encouraged from a young age to study the classics and learn Latin and Greek, Aurora Leigh develops not only the desire to become a famous poet, but the talent and intelligence to achieve her dream. What she has in ambition and skill, however, she lacks in confidence, and, after moving to England as a teenager, Aurora struggles to make a name for herself in the competitive literary environment of London. While in England, she meets her cousin Romney Leigh, a dedicated and idealistic social worker who dreams of using his inheritance and family estate--Leigh Hall--to alleviate the suffering of the lower classes. Aurora Leigh is a dramatic tale of romance involving Marian Erle, Lady Waldemar--a beautiful aristocrat--and Aurora herself. As each of these women navigates their relationship with Romney, and as Romney tries and fails to bring meaningful aid to the poor, Aurora finds that her art means nothing if she cannot learn to love herself as much as she loves others.
With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Elizabeth Barrett Browning's Aurora Leigh is a classic of English literature reimagined for modern readers.

Описание: A collection of grief & nature poems for all wanderers, THE WILD KEEPS HER HOLY, is inspired by Aurora's exit from her lifelong membership in the mormon church, after surviving & coming to terms with ongoing abuse she experienced as a young teenager in a religious setting. Through heartfelt words which are strategically placed within five chapters, to give the reader the feeling of being on a structured healing journey, Aurora describes the grieving process as she experienced it, using poetry to convey how she completely lost her identity (& found it again) as an adult. This trek through different seasons, terrains, & the elements, touches on self-love, heartbreak, relationships, mental health, forgiveness, & ultimately moving forward. Aurora writes with her own unique & contemporary style, sealed with a classic twist. Mother nature themed imagery, dripping with real human thought & emotion... makes this collection relevant to anyone who has ever lost someone or something.

Описание: Dreams, pain, love, sadness, darkness- the Demons of the title wind and dance their way through this magical collection of poems. Through language full of music Ginger Leigh Davies takes us on a journey with which we can all identify, from bleakness and despair into a place of light and beauty. The metre sings and spins, opening up for us a different world where "The lilting strains of a lifetime of dance play forever in the mind." - Juliet Johns
Описание: This book has been considered by academicians and scholars of great significance and value to literature. This forms a part of the knowledge base for future generations. So that the book is never forgotten we have represented this book in a print format as the same form as it was originally first published. Hence any marks or annotations seen are left intentionally to preserve its true nature.
It becomes obvious to anyone who gets to know me that I am a hopeless romantic. I am not sure what instigated my sentimentality over love and romance, but I have an affinity for all things that exhibit the beautiful qualities of passion. The incredible holding power of love should not be taken for granted, even as it can either profoundly entice or greatly elude. The full effects of love's intensity move me with deep appreciation. Some may say that I live in a fantasy world with my notions about romantic love, but I don't let that bother me. I just hop on my magical unicorn and ride off into the sunset.
I use my poetry to express intensity of emotions, whether it be to entice, delight, mystify, enlighten, ache, or touch. Sometimes, even through love's painful experiences, there can be profound beauty taken from it that leaves lasting impressions. For love, in all its reflections, has much to teach us about its purpose as the most powerful force in existence. Since the beginning of time as we know it, it has lived and breathed its testimony, serving to inspire.
This collection of poetry came together for publication from encouragement from friends and fellow peer poets who believe in me. I have always enjoyed writing, but the past few years have been pivotal times of creativity. I have changed from a woman seeking deliverance from pain to a woman experiencing inexplicable passion. The obsession of love has become an innate part of my personality that needs to express itself in words. I guess you could say, I am smitten about anything written about love.
My hope is for the readers of my poetry to experience an emotional connection or perhaps find release through my various themes of love. Some of my love poems take on a tone of spirituality while others embrace aspects of sensuality. But all show phases and faces of love in need of expression. For as mysterious as love can be, it always makes its presence known in one form or another with unmistakable impact.
Welcome to my world of Passionate Impressions in Love's Reflection.

Описание: This collection`s title - as in tether, strike, eyelash, welt - is a nod to the fluidity of language and the foolish penchant we have for naming things, including ourselves. The poems refuse to navigate, choosing instead to face head-on the snares of gender, patriarchy, and parenting.

Описание: Somehow I think that no matter how many poems I write, it?ll never be enough to capture everything I?m feeling. It's like a camera, you?ll never take the same picture multiple times unless you want something to be clearer. I?m always switching between emotions, as if they were clothes and I needed to constantly wash them. I hope one day that I will be able to write a poem that will fully capture what I have always felt. But maybe if I do that, I?ll never be able to write again. If I?m content, will that be an issue? To never write again? Yet again, I?m left wondering.

Описание:
In between family life, work life and author life I get these poems forming in my head.
They wriggle, squirm and prod till I let them out. I squeeze them, manipulate them and push them through my fingers to the screen.
They drag themselves into words from the media into your open, willing mind. They dig deep, embed themselves into your world, your life, your dreams.
Enjoy my gifts to you...
Forever.
