Free Download Zoë Bossiere, "The Lyric Essay as Resistance: Truth from the Margins "
English | ISBN: 0814349609 | 2023 | 224 pages | EPUB | 9 MB
Lyric essayists draw on memoir, poetry, and prose to push against the arbitrary genre restrictions in creative nonfiction, opening up space not only for new forms of writing, but also new voices and a new literary canon. This anthology features some of the best lyric essays published in the last several years by prominent and emerging writers. Editors Zoë Bossiere and Erica Trabold situate this anthology within the ongoing work of resistance―to genre convention, literary tradition, and the confines of dominant-culture spaces. As sites of resistance, these essays are diverse and include investigations into deeply personal and political topics such as queer and trans identity, the American BIPOC experience, reproductive justice, belonging, grief, and more.

A Reader’s Guide to the Narrative and Lyric Poetry of Thomas Lovell Beddoes


Free Download Rodney Stenning Edgecombe, "A Reader’s Guide to the Narrative and Lyric Poetry of Thomas Lovell Beddoes"
English | ISBN: 1443882569 | 2015 | 499 pages | PDF | 2 MB
Beddoes poses a peculiar problem for critics and scholars who wish to redress the marginal position that he occupies in the Romantic canon a problem seemingly unique to him, and created in part by his misconception of his own strengths as a writer. An extremely good poet who, had things turned out differently, might have functioned as a missing link between Keats and Tennyson, he fatally divided his attention between verse and medicine, a discipline that by his own admission (made in the poem composed for Zoë King) served to wither his creative gift. This fission of energy was bad enough, but more damaging still was his misconception of metier, for whatever mental resources remained to Beddoes after gruelling days in the classroom he invested in writing an unstageable drama instead of in his primary gift for lyric verse. Whereas the Beddoes revival that has been gathering momentum in recent years has centred on Death’s Jest-Book, the play onto which the poet directed some might say misdirected so much of his creative energy, this study focuses wholly on his lyric and narrative verse, much of which has received short critical shrift. It follows the sequence of poems set out in the Donner edition, and focuses on their verbal richness and inventiveness as they unspool upon the page.

New Critical Nostalgia Romantic Lyric and the Crisis of Academic Life


Free Download Christopher Rovee, "New Critical Nostalgia: Romantic Lyric and the Crisis of Academic Life "
English | ISBN: 1531505120 | 2024 | 272 pages | EPUB, PDF | 10 MB + 10 MB
New Critical Nostalgia weighs the future of literary study by reassessing its past. It tracks today’s impassioned debates about method back to the discipline’s early professional era, when an unprecedented makeover of American higher education with far-reaching social consequences resulted in what we might call our first crisis of academic life. Rovee probes literary study’s nostalgic attachments to this past, by recasting an essential episode in the historiography of English―the vigorous rejection of romanticism by American New Critics―in the new light of the American university’s tectonic growth. In the process, he demonstrates literary study’s profound investment in romanticism and reveals the romantic lyric’s special affect, nostalgia, as having been part of English’s professional identity all along.

2013 | 260 Pages | ISBN: 1107010845 | PDF | 4 MB
As a study of lyric poetry, in English, from the early modern period to the present, this book explores one of the most ancient and significant art forms in Western culture as it emerges in its various modern incarnations. Combining a much-needed historicisation of the concept of lyric with an aesthetic and formal focus, this collaboration of period-specialists offers a new cross-historical approach. Through eleven chapters, spanning more than four centuries, the book provides readers with both a genealogical framework for the understanding of lyric poetry within any particular period, and a necessary context for more general discussion of the nature of genre.
