Literature & Literary StudiesSeptember 2014A concordance to the rhymes of The Faerie Queene
by Richard Brown, J. B. Lethbridge, J. B. Lethbridge
This book is the first ever concordance to the rhymes of Spenser's epic. It gives the reader unparalleled access to the formal nuts and bolts of this massive poem: the rhymes which he used to structure its intricate stanzas. As well as the main concordance to the rhymes, the volume features a wealth of ancillary materials, which will be of value to both professional Spenserians and students, including distribution lists and an alphabetical listing of all the words in The Faerie Queene. The volume breaks new ground by including two studies by Richard Danson Brown and J. B. Lethbridge, so that the reader is given provocative analyses alongside the raw data about Spenser as a rhymer. Brown considers the reception of rhyme, theoretical models and how Spenser's rhymes may be reading for meaning. Lethbridge in contrast discusses the formulaic and rhetorical character of the rhymes. ;

April 2023Winterpoem 20/21
Leipziger Buchpreis zur Europäischen Verständigung 2023
by Maria Stepanova, Olga Radetzkaja
Der Ausbruch der Covid-Pandemie setzte im März 2020 einem Aufenthalt Maria Stepanovas im britischen Cambridge ein Ende. Zurück in Russland, verbrachte sie die folgenden Monate in einem Zustand der Erstarrung – die Welt hatte sich vor ihr zurückgezogen, die Zeit war »ertaubt«. Als sie aus diesem Zustand auftauchte, begann sie Ovid zu lesen. Motive fanden zueinander, die lange in ihr gewartet hatten. Wie schon in Der Körper kehrt wieder verwandelt sie historische und aktuelle Kataklysmen in ein ungemein feingliedriges, bewegliches Gebilde aus Rhythmen und Stimmen. Das Poem, das in einer rauschhaften poetischen Inspiration entstand, spricht vom Winter und vom Krieg, von Verbannung und Exil, von sozialer Isolation und existentieller Verlassenheit. Stepanova findet grandiose Bilder für das Verstummen: wenn etwa Worte, die wir einander zurufen, in der Luft gefrieren und unser Gegenüber nicht mehr erreichen. Das Werk verwebt Liebesbriefe und Reiseberichte, chinesische Verse und dänische Märchen in eine vielstimmige Beschwörung der gefrorenen und langsam auftauenden Zeit.

April 2009Verse auf Leben und Tod
Roman
by Amos Oz, Mirjam Pressler
Tel Aviv, ein stickiger Sommerabend: Ein bekannter Schriftsteller ist zu einer Lesung eingeladen. Was werden seine Leser, was wird sein Publikum ihn fragen? Das Übliche? Warum schreiben Sie? Sind Ihre Bücher autobiographisch? Was wollten Sie uns mit Ihrem letzten Roman sagen? Was wird er antworten? Das Übliche? Oder wird er sich den Erwartungen widersetzen? Amos Oz erzählt in seinem neuen Roman von einem bekannten Schriftsteller an einem stickigen Sommerabend in Tel Aviv, von der Liebesnacht danach, von den Menschen, die ihm begegnen, bis die Geschichten, die sie alle haben oder haben könnten, sich entfalten und miteinander verknüpfen, bis das, was sich ereignet, und das, was sich hätte ereignen können, ununterscheidbar werden. Verse auf Leben und Tod ist die unkonventionelle Antwort des großen Erzählers Amos Oz auf die Frage nach dem subversiven Wechselspiel von Leben und Literatur.

June 2016The Monkey Tree

Literature & Literary StudiesJanuary 2019The art of The Faerie Queene
by J. B. Lethbridge, Richard Brown
The Art of The Faerie Queene is the first book centrally focused on the forms and poetic techniques employed by Spenser. It offers a sharp new perspective on Spenser by rereading The Faerie Queene as poetry which is at once absorbing, demanding and experimental. Instead of the traditional conservative model of Spenser as poet, this book presents the poem as radical, edgy and unconventional, thus proposing new ways of understanding the Elizabethan poetic Renaissance. The book moves from the individual words of the poem to metre, rhyme and stanza form onto its larger structures of canto and book. It will be of particular relevance to undergraduates studying Elizabethan poetry, graduate students and scholars of Renaissance poetry, for whom the formal aspect of the poetry has been a topic of growing relevance in recent years.

Literature & Literary StudiesNovember 2024Geoffrey Hill and the ends of poetry
by Tom Docherty
The idea of the end is an essential motivic force in the poetry of Geoffrey Hill (1932-2016). This book shows that Hill's poems are characteristically 'end-directed'. They tend towards consummations of all kinds: from the marriages of meanings in puns, or of words in repeating figures and rhymes, to syntactical and formal finalities. The recognition of failure to reach such ends provides its own impetus to Hill's poetry. This is the first book on Hill to take account of his last works. It is a significant contribution to the study of Hill's poems, offering a new thematic reading of his entire body of work. By using Hill's work as an example, the book also touches on questions of poetry's ultimate value: what are its ends and where does it wish to end up?
