Other British and Irish poetry since 1970
Free Download Other British and Irish poetry since 1970 By Richard Caddel, Peter Quartermain
1999 | 280 Pages | ISBN: 0819522414 | EPUB | 1 MB
When most Americans think of contemporary British poetry, they think of such mainstream poets as Ted Hughes, Philip Larkin, and Geoffrey Hill. Yet there is a vibrant, diverse alternative poetry movement in the UK, inspired in large measure by the work of such significant mentors as Basil Bunting and J. H. Prynne. There is growing interest in this work in the United States - as alternative American poetries express increasingly transnational concerns - and yet almost none of it is available here. OTHER is a highly focused anthology bringing together several important strands of English-language poetry that are not otherwise so readily accessible. It includes work by 55 poets, among them Cris Cheek, Brian Coffey, Fred d'Aguiar, Allen Fisher, Ulli Freer, Randolph Healy, Linton Kwesi Johnson, Wendy Mulford, Tom Raworth, Denise Riley, Catherine Walsh; a critical introduction addressing such topics as the interaction of British and American poetic traditions; and brief biographical and bibliographical notes on each poet.### From ✅Publishers WeeklyThough England has seen a spate of recent anthologies of alternative U.K. poetry, this collection marks the first published in the States in more than two decades. Caddel, a noted poet, and Quartermain, a prominent critic of postmodern poetry, collect a diverse and exciting range of work that is evenly balanced between such trends as Caribbean dub poetry; the mellifluous, baroque lyric as it has been developed in Cambridge; London-based performance and concrete poetry; and "outsider" figures such as Bill Griffiths (an independent Anglo-Saxon scholar) and Tom Raworth, whose Reverdy-inspired early lyrics first found appreciation in the States. The compelling introduction portrays a late-millennium English milieu that is marked by overlapping ethnicities and class perspectives, but that traces an experimental tradition "back to Claire, Blake, Smart, and the two Vaughans, Henry and Thomas." The selections from the 55 poets are brief yet excellent. Barry McSweeney, a self-styled Rimbaudian, is represented by a number of terse, direct poems that flaunt provocative language. Denise Riley's subtle, tradition-conscious ear allows lines that are unexpectedly comforting, while Raworth's "That More Simple Natural Time Tone Distortion," a sonic joy-ride of one- to three-word lines that bristle with pixilated narrative, is a contrast to his traditional short lyric "Out of a Sudden." Tom Leonard's Glasgow Scots, not unlike John Agard's Guyanese-inflected idiom, brings to eye and ear a sweet, confident music that is unlike anything in this country. Veronica Forrest-Thomson, a poet and critic who died at 28; Chris Cheek; Maggie O'Sullivan and concrete poet Bob Cobbing are all well represented, as are important figures who guided the influx of New American poetry to the islands: Eric Mottram, Roy Fisher and Andrew Crozier. This is an important sourcebook to a literature that is probably more marked by the multiculturalist energy and divergences from the main modernist line than that of the United States. Copyright 1998 Reed Business Information, Inc. ### From Library JournalThe United States is not the only English-speaking nation in which oppositional poetries thrive despite the willful inattention of the literary mainstream. This work of 55 poets?the first significant anthology of experimental verse from the U.K. available here in 25 years?demonstrates how Objectivist, Projectivist, Beat, and Caribbean influences have infiltrated the tradition-bound isles of Hughes and Heaney, as standard punctuation and stanzaic forms give way to impressionistic word-streams and open-field constructions. The approach may be visual (Bob Cobbing), political (Barry MacSweeney, Amyrl Johnson), or conceptual (Maggie O'Sullivan, Catherine Walsh), but to readers of Language and other postmodern schools much of it may actually seem a bit restrained, as if its practitioners had achieved the style but not the anarchic spirit of their American progenitors. Still, this anthology is a valuable document of poetic trends that are likely to continue overseas through the next decade.?Fred Muratori, Cornell Univ.

Liberalism and Socialism since the Nineteenth Century
Free Download Liberalism and Socialism since the Nineteenth Century: Tensions, Exchanges, and Convergences
English | 2024 | ISBN: 303141232X | 419 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 3 MB
This book aims to re-evaluate the relations between two major ideologies that have been increasingly contested in recent years, yet continue to be invoked or rejected as foundational systems for political thought or action. With socialism conceiving of itself as an alternative to economic liberalism, the two systems of thought emerged partially in opposition to each other. However, this book seeks to redefine their specificities and the way in which they have not only opposed each other but drew on common notions or paradigms to become both competing and complementary systems of thought and practices. With contributions from eminent political scientists and historians of political and economic thought, the book examines how the polarisation of debates and politicisation of concepts such as property, freedom, the individual, or the State, serve to construct the adversary and form a basis for political commitment. Offering an interdisciplinary assessment of the relation between liberalism and socialism, the authors help to make sense of current debate on individual freedom, political obligation and the changing role of the State. Providing an innovative perspective, this edited collection will be of interest to scholars and students researching political and economic thought, history or science, as well as anyone seeking to understand current developments affecting Western societies, and their past, present, and future ideologies.

Geography of Crime in China since the Economic Reform of 1978 A Multi–scale Analysis
Free Download Yijing Li, "Geography of Crime in China since the Economic Reform of 1978: A Multi-scale Analysis"
English | ISBN: 144387535X | 2015 | 455 pages | PDF | 3 MB
China has seen dramatic social changes since the Economic Reform of 1978; however, the economic upsurge and rapid urbanization present a two-edged sword, with the consequence of more challenging crime problems. This book presents an analysis of criminal issues in China from a geographic perspective, utilizing both spatio-temporal analysis and qualitative techniques at multiple spatial and temporal scales. It pays particularly close attention to a pilot study in Shenzhen city, testing the applicability of theories developed in Western society to the Chinese context. As such, this book is not merely a piece of research work, but rather a systematic overview of Chinese national crime issues.

The German Historical Novel since the Eighteenth Century
Free Download Daniela Richter, "The German Historical Novel since the Eighteenth Century"
English | ISBN: 1443897663 | 2016 | 270 pages | PDF | 1106 KB
The historical novel is a genre which has enjoyed widespread popularity in Germany from its beginnings in the eighteenth century. At that time, increased literacy among the middle and lower classes had resulted in a greater demand for reading material aimed at a general audience. Because of its educational and entertaining characteristics, the historical novel quickly became a dominant genre among other forms of popular literature. To this day, it constitutes a major sector on the German book market and is, together with popular TV series, documentaries, and museum exhibits, an important part of German Geschichtskultur. This collection of essays looks at aesthetic and thematic continuities, as well as changes in the development of the genre in Germany from the late eighteenth century to the present, and gives insights into the novels political and socio-cultural implications. The articles investigate historical novels from writers such as Benedikte Naubert, the mother of German historical fiction, nineteenth-century popular writers Georg Ebers and Hermann Sudermann, modern writers such as Alfred Döblin, Hermann Hesse, and Hermann Broch, post-Wende works such as those by Thomas Brussig, Christa Wolf, and Ingo Schulze, and contemporary historical fiction by Sabine Weigand, Eveline Hasler and Petra Durst-Benning.
