Abstract:

Robert Frost is regarded as one of the most distinguished American poets in the twentieth century. His work usually realistically describes the rural life in New England in the early twentieth century and conveys complex social and philosophical themes. But his personal life was plagued with grief and loss, which is also reflected in his poems, and the dark energy distinguishes Robert Frost’s poems, frequently conveyed in the use of lexical words like dark and its derivatives or synonyms, woods, snow, night, and so on. The present study starts with the survey of the lexical representations of

Resumo: Galáxias (1984) é um livro de Haroldo de Campos que transita entre linguagens e suportes. Entre as experimentações de Galáxias (1984), destaco a transcriação cinematográfica, operada por Julio Bressane e Haroldo de Campos. A dupla produziu dois vídeos-poemas: Galáxia albina (1992) e Infernalário: logodédalo – Galáxia dark (1993). O objetivo desse trabalho foi pensar a transcriação do poema Galáxias (1984) para o vídeo-poema Infernalário: logodédalo – Galáxia dark (1993) por meio da navalha benjaminiana que compõe a teoria poética de Haroldo de Campos.

Abstract:

The themes of Lang Leav's poems are mostly about love, loss and loneliness. Her poetry is very well received by many and is also said to promote a toxic view of love. This paper aims to examine the themes of love which we argue contain the elements of dark love. Dark love is divided into 'love as a sad notion' and 'love as a hopeless infatuation'. A textual analysis is done on selected poems using Frank Sibley's aesthetic theory of objectivism (1959). The analysis reveals that the poems promote 'dark love' that is grim, disappointing and pessimistic.

Abstract: In the early modern poetics of “dark lady” poems, “Sonnet of Black Beauty” and “Another Sonnet to Black it self,” by Edward Lord Herbert of Cherbury, seem more abstract. While these sonnets may indeed be read as philosophical poems concerning “blackness per se” or blackness personified, they may also be seen as part of a sequence of Herbert’s poems that participate in the conversation that includes the “dark lady” poems of William Shakespeare and Philip Sidney. More conjecturally, the poems may refer to the “swarthiness” of Welsh men, men like “Black Lord Herbert” himself, thus parti

Abstract:

Dark humor is a form of comedy that explores taboo topics such as death, disease, and tragedy. While it is often controversial and can be offensive to some, it is also a means of coping with difficult or uncomfortable topics and offering a fresh perspective on societal norms. Just as stated by Merriam-Webster’s Encyclopedia of Literature, dark humor or black humor is a kind of humor that is marked by the use of morbid, ironic, or grotesquely comic episodes that ridicule human folly. However, this paper examines the concept of dark humor by tackling some of the significant poems of the English

Abstract:

The slender poetic oeuvre of Phyllis Haring (1919–2016) is now almost forgotten. Only one collection, A Taste of Salt, was published in 1976, and a number of poems appeared in small magazines until 1991. Though she is unquestionably a “minor poet,” I argue that her dream-like, dark yet musical work is worth attention, especially as something of a local pioneer in Surrealist techniques. (Surrealism’s influence more broadly in South African poetry is apparently yet to be comprehensively explored.)

Abstract:

This paper argues that the addressee of Anacreon 417 pmg, or the ‘Thracian filly’ fragment, is a virgin girl instead of a hetaira. This identification is substantiated by contextualizing the fragment within Anacreon’s corpus, by engaging in a close reading of the fragment, and by linking the fragment to the Odes of Horace. The analysis of these sources reveals an erotic chase pattern in which an experienced man pursues a youthful object of desire and suggests that this chase pattern was employed by Anacreon to compose amatory poems outside the context of the symposium.

In pursuit of a richer understanding of the poet's attitude, this article situates the poem within histories of Black music, racial uplift, and white supremacy, exploring the poem's relation to other media from the Harlem Renaissance.

In his poetry, water does not give rise to contemplation as it does in the poetry of Pencho Slaveykov, nor does it take the reader into Yavor‘s nirvana.

In the 1970s and 1980s, writing in a subdued light becomes a necessary condition in a tense and sometimes turbulent political climate. A more equable light shines in the work composed in the 1990s, enabling a poetry of meditation and spiritual scrutiny, of quiet celebration and elegy. In later poems,

Long Ago(1889), Michael Field's inaugural collection of verse, celebrated Sappho, the ancient poetess of Lesbos. The volume proclaimed the diversity of her sexuality; it saluted verse that was connected to the self; and it urged the authenticity of her creative force in ages beyond her death. Taking surviving fragments of Sapphic writing as embarkation points for new poems in her spirit, Michael Field, the joint pseudonym of the two poets Katherine Bradley (1846–1914) and Edith Cooper (1862–1913), hailed the continuing presence of the Greek in the modern age, drawing the reader back to an imag

Interestingly, most of her poems lack a title, are short and symbolic. The poetess managed to di

Abstract: Extending upon recent interventions by "environmental Hemingway" scholars, this article suggests that several of Hemingway's early short stories and poems exhibit a reluctant, panic-infused realization of their protagonists' complicity in mass environmental degradation—a phenomenon that Timothy Morton calls "dark ecology"—tempered by their deferral of personal responsibility for such degradation. While Hemingway's protagonists strive to construct a pastoral understanding of the natural world as an autonomous site of salvation, care, and escape, this article suggests that ultimately,

Abstract:

This paper attempts to provide new insights into the nature of Greek society in the Dark Ages (1100–700 B.C.). It re-examines the relationship between the archaeological evidence and the institutions and practices described in the Homeric poems. The archaeological evidence indicates that there were marked regional differences in settlement pattern, burial customs and pottery traditions. This must, it is argued, reflect profound regional differences in social organisation. Ethnographic analogies are used to make sense of some of these regional patterns.

Abstract:

Although Frank Ormsby’s poetry is associated with what Terry Eagleton has called tropes of irony and commitment, his 2009 collection Fireflies inclines, rather surprisingly, towards Wallace Stevens’s idea of imagination as a force impacting reality. Reading Ormsby’s volume against a selection of poems by Stevens unravels what appears to be a consistent affinity between the author of Harmonium and the Ulster-born poet. This affinity manifests itself, as the present paper aims to show, in the fact that in Fireflies, much like in Stevens, a form of perception of reality is delineated that is neve

Abstract This essay argues that Crow, a collection of poems by Ted Hughes published in 1970, forms part of a countercultural movement that began to emerge in the 1960s and that continues to find new forms in the current century. In the form it takes in Crow, this movement protests against a relationship between humans and nature based on a primarily Christian world view combined with what it considers an exaggerated belief in science and technology. This combination and its relation to environmental crisis was first addressed by Lynn White in his classical article from 1967, “The Historical Ro
