The haiku handbook : how to write, teach, and appreciate haiku
The Haiku Handbook is the first book to give readers everything they need to begin appreciating, writing, or teaching haiku. In this groundbreaking and now-classic volume, the authors present haiku poets writing in English, Spanish, French, German, and five other languages on an equal footing with Japanese poets. Not only are the four great Japanese masters of the haiku represented (Basho, Buson, Issa, and Shiki) but also major Western authors not commonly known to have written poetry in this form, including Gary Snyder, Jack Kerouac and Richard Wright.

Landschaft wird zur flirrenden Inszenierung der Existenz, zum Panorama der Ängste\.1 : Zum Naturbild im Werk von Herta Müller
Abstract Die Landschaftsdarstellungen im Werk von Herta Müller fallen durch ihre pejorative Eindimensionalität auf, weil sie beständig mit der (Lebens)Angst bzw. dem Tod konnotiert sind. Müllers Naturbild steht im Einklang mit ihrer existentiellen Haltung
und prägt ihr Verhältnis zur Welt und den Mitmenschen. Es erweist sich als gleichzusetzen mit ihrem Weltbild und ist daher auf der epistemologischen sowie sozial-politischen Ebene von elementarer Bedeutung. Ferner wird die Natur als poetologische Reflexionsfigur in ihren Texten eingesetzt,
um allegorisch Müllers ästhetisches Konzept, die Motivation, Funktionen und Charakteristika des Schreibens und der Sprache zu illustrieren. In der Naturbeschreibung zeichnen sich luzid Müllers Poetik, Anthropologie, Ontologie und Ethik ab.The presentations of the landscape
in Herta Mueller's works are characterized by their pejorative one-dimensionality, because they are constantly connotated with the fear of death. Mueller's view of nature is consistent with her existential attitude and in turn shapes her relationship with the world and her fellow
human beings. It proves to be equivalent to her worldview and is therefore of fundamental importance at an epistemological and socio-political level. In addition, as a figure of poetic reflection in her texts, nature is used to illustrate allegorically Mueller's aesthetic concept concerning
the motivation, functions, and characteristics of writing and language. In the description of nature, Mueller's poetics, anthropology, ontology, and ethics are lucidly illustrated.
Journal Article
Poetic community : avant-garde activism and Cold War culture
\"Poetic Community examines the relationship between poetry and community formation in the decades after the Second World War. In four detailed case studies (of Black Mountain College in North Carolina, the Caribbean Artists Movement in London, the Women's Liberation Movement at sites throughout the US, and the Toronto Research Group in Canada) the book documents and compares a diverse group of social models, small press networks, and cultural coalitions informing literary practice during the Cold War era. Drawing on a wealth of unpublished archival materials, Stephen Voyce offers new and insightful comparative analysis of poets such as John Cage, Charles Olson, Adrienne Rich, Kamau Brathwaite, and bpNichol. In contrast with prevailing critical tendencies that read mid-century poetry in terms of expressive modes of individualism, Poetic Community demonstrates that the most important literary innovations of the post-war period were the results of intensive collaboration and social action opposing the Cold War's ideological enclosures.\"--Jacket.

The Ethnography of Rhythm: Orality and Its Technologies
Who speaks? The author as producer, the contingency of the text, intertextuality, the \"device\"-core ideas of modern literary theory-were all pioneered in the shadow of oral literature. Authorless, loosely dated, and variable, oral texts have always posed a challenge to critical interpretation. When it began to be thought that culturally significant texts-starting with Homer and the Bible-had emerged from an oral tradition, assumptions on how to read these texts were greatly perturbed. Through readings that range from ancient Greece, Rome, and China to the Cold War imaginary, The Ethnography of Rhythm situates the study of oral traditions in the contentious space of nineteenth- and twentieth-century thinking about language, mind, and culture. It also demonstrates the role of technologies in framing this category of poetic creation. By making possible a new understanding of Maussian \"techniques of the body\" as belonging to the domain of Derridean \"arche-writing,\" Haun Saussy shows how oral tradition is a means of inscription in its own right, rather than an antecedent made obsolete by the written word or other media and data-storage devices.

The Book of Forms
Now in its fifth edition, The Book of Forms: A Handbook of Poetics continues to be the go-to reference and guide for students, teachers, and critics. A companion for poets from novice to master, The Book of Forms has been called \"the poet's bible\" for more than fifty years. Filled with both common and rarely heard of forms and prosodies, Turco's engaging style and apt examples invite writers to try their hands at exploring forms in ways that challenge and enrich their work. Revised for today's poet, the fifth edition includes the classic rules of scansion and the useful Form-Finder Index alongside new examples of terms and prose that are essential to the study of all forms of poetry and verse. As Turco writes in the introduction, \"It should go without saying that the more one knows how to do, the more one can do.\"
