Abstract:
ForoughFarrokhzad and Sylvia Plath’s poems are closely linked to their personal life and their marriage. Their poems are confessional in style. Farrokhzad criticizes Iranian male dominant society in which women are marginalized and haven’t any voice in the society, so seeking their voice and identity in modern literature, especially in modern Persian poetry. Sylvia Plath attempts to resist patriarchy in her society through her poems too. Two poets highlighting and expressing the lack of interest in life and the sole desire to die in most of their poems.

Abstract:
The article traces parallels between some confessional situations in the poetry of Vyacheslav Ivanov and the Confessions of St. Augustine. The question is raised about the ability of Ivanov`s symbolism to reproduce the existential uncertainty (ignorance of the further path, the actual rejection of its foreshadowing by culture and intellectual experience), to which the confession should lead the subject, if s/he follows the principle of Augustine`s „transcende te ipsum”. When the state of confession is pre-established by a system of symbols with a „ready” meaning, it risks losing its uniqueness

Abstract:
Abstract Andrew Marvell’s ‘Flecknoe, an English Priest at Rome’ (1646) is a striking document in early modern debates over toleration and an exemplar of their rhetoric and design. Considering ‘Flecknoe’ together with Upon Appleton House (1651), I argue that Marvell uses spatial terms and satiric forms to present confessional rivalry and complementarity. Satire itself might be thought of as a practice of toleration in these poems, at once mocking the languages and gestures of opposing religious confessions and allowing the poet to draw close to—to contrive a surprising intimacy with—the convict

This essay explores the relays of publicity and privacy structuring Frank O'Hara‘s “Personism: A Manifesto” and his personal poetry. Though these works have recently been celebrated for their candid expression of homosexual desire during a cultural moment set on silencing queer voices, I argue the inverse. Focusing on O'Hara‘s ambivalent relation to a calcified poetics of impersonality promoted by New Critics and confessional poets, I suggest that O'Hara does not simply reject the New Critical creed of public poetry. He instead reformats New Critical tenets to create a fantastic space of close

To carry this out, Bohórquez’s work is contextualized in the poetic panorama of his time in order to understand some lines that could have influenced his writings of the self linked to memory. Subsequently, a framework is created by which we conceptualize confessional and autobiographical poetry in Desierto mayor. Finally, the poems are analyzed, giving an account of their confessional and autobiographical marks,

Abstract:
This essay offers an early chapter in the conjoined history of poetry and performance art, literary criticism and performance studies. Beginning in the mid-1950s and with increasing fervor through the 1960s, American poetry lived simultaneously in print, on vinyl, and in embodied performance. Amid this environment of multimedia publicity, an oddly private poetry emerged. The essay locates confessional poetry in the performance-rich context of its birth and interrogates not only its textual voice but also its embodied, performed breath.

Abstract:
In the Reformed academy of Sedan in the early seventeenth century a manuscript was compiled containing poems which have remained largely understudied, despite the manuscript’s publication in 1913. The poems were the work of Arthur Johnston, Andrew Melville, and Daniel Tilenus, two Scots and a Silesian; all were professors in the Huguenot Academy. As teachers there they operated in the world of Reformed scholasticism, and historiography has understandably tended to view their lives, therefore, through a religious lens. The poems in this manuscript suggest, however, that such a perspective is mi

The theory informing this thesis is drawn from three broad fields: that of feminism, embodiment studies and ethical philosophy.

Kamala Das is one of the best-known contemporary Indian women writers, albeit largely for the controversy that her candid, confessional writing has sparked in the relatively traditional context of Indian academia. Since the publication of her first collection of poetry, Summer in Calcutta (1965), Das has been considered an important voice of her generation. Her provocative poems are known for their unflinchingly honest explorations of the self and female sexuality, urban life, and women’s roles in traditional Indian society.

Abstract:
Today, we may know confessional poetry as a set of texts that are printed in books, but in its time it was also a performance genre. This chapter demonstrates how the performance of poems—in the privacy of the poet’s study, at public poetry readings, and in the studios of recorded literature companies—shaped this genre, determined its tactics, and influenced its style. An extended comparison of Robert Lowell and Allen Ginsberg shows that breath was a key medium for confessional poets, and a study of Anne Sexton’s career—both on the page and at the podium—shows how she “breathed back” dead poems in live performance. Throughout, this chapter focuses on the feelings of embarrassment confessional poetry raised, and the uses to which poets could put such feelings. It also highlights contemporary trends in “performance” and their impact on confessional poets—e.g., Anne Sexton’s debt to the acting theories of Konstantin Stanislavsky and to Method acting as theorized by American director Lee Strasberg.

Abstract:
This chapter combines two very different but intimately related texts. On the one hand, it reproduces three dalits, devotional poems by Tagalog natives praising the work of Catholic missionaries. On the other, it provides a questionnaire from an eighteenth-century confessional manual used by missionaries to administer the sacrament of Penance. Vicente L. Rafael argues that each text embodies a different attitude toward the written word in the religious life of the colonial Philippines. For the Tagalog authors of the dalits, the book becomes a magical talisman of sorts. For the missionaries, it provides the tactics of an intimate disciplinary strategy meant to alter the behavior of Filipino natives.

Abstract:
The second chapter explores global citizenship as a practice of exclusion undertaken in part through policies of liberal multiculturalism. In Citizen: An American Lyric (2014), Claudia Rankine writes an experimental “American lyric” in which the confessional lyric voice is made to contain the micro-aggressions and minoritarian struggles situated within the US but created by a US-manipulated global capitalist economy. The poems in Citizen offer both a diagnosis of the failures of citizenship as an ideal and a staging of the violent “beauty” that emerges from these failures. The poetic transit of Citizen across the Atlantic, and implicitly across the Mediterranean as well, creates the conditions for imagining solidarity between anti-racist movements in the US and ongoing anti-colonial struggles in France and North Africa.

Abstract:
As each art form turned confessional, the first artists to attempt it had unusual amounts of social privilege—e.g., among poets, Robert Lowell, a Boston Brahmin. That, perhaps, is why confessional artists have tended to be white, at least in early, pivotal moments in each art form. And yet, over and over, these white, confessional artists have adopted the voices of ethnic and racial others, credentialing their angst through appropriation. Not only is confessionalism unbearably white as a movement, but confessional artists tend to find their own whiteness unbearable. Nonwhite confessional artists, though, do something similar—e.g., in comedy, Richard Pryor—blending personal expression with persona performance, fostering identifications across identitarian boundaries.
