Abstract:
This paper intends to show how prison poems help paint a picture of the strategies of survival and dissent within British prisons. In a world where pencils and papers were at a premium, writing was at once subversive and vital, disruptive and essential. The study of Victorian and Edwardian prison poetry writing highlights strategies developed by prisoners to compose themselves. It contributes to a bottom-up history of prison life, as prisoners who wrote poetry sought to create – to borrow from Virginia Woolf – ‘a cell of their own’. While Victorian places of confinement may not immediately app

This article examines the poetry of Andrei Ciurunga (1920-2002), the pseudonym of Robert Esenbraun, born in a family of German settlers in southern Bessarabia. Under the communist regime he was sentenced on two occasions (the first time to four years, 19501954, the second time to 18 years to prison – from 1958), he was detained for a little more than ten years, undergoing amnesty in 1964. Memorable is the poem published after the fall of communism. It is a poem „coming from the heart”.

In prisons of communist Romania he composed lyrics, memorized, got by heart and transposed on paper only after release from prison.

The Political Aesthetic of the Medieval Persian Prison Poem, 1100-1200 traces the dissemination of the medieval Persian prison poem (habsiyyat) from South Asia to the Caucasus in the context of the contemporaneous developments in literary and political theory that shaped this genre. Varying attitudes towards figuration in Persian literary criticism are examined in terms of an aesthetics of incarceration that, I argue, extended the political boundaries of medieval Persian literary culture.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter examines Volkhovskii’s life from his third arrest in 1874 through to his flight from Siberian exile in 1889. Following his third arrest, Volkhovskii was held in various prisons, before being tried and found guilty of promoting revolution before a Senate Committee at the Trial of the 193 (1877). During his time in prison, Volkhovskii continued to write revolutionary poetry, something that he started during his earlier incarceration, as well as contributing extensively to legal journals on questions of education (including numerous poems written for children). Following his exile to Siberia, at first in an isolated village and later in Tomsk, Volkhovskii faced almost constant material hardship. He was however able to publish extensively, becoming the most prolific contributor to the journal Sibirskaia gazeta (Siberian Gazette), contributing numerous theatre review and short stories. While some of these were informed by a utilitarian aestheticism, promulgated in previous years by writers like Nikolai Chernyshevskii and Dmitrii Pisarev, Volkhovskii also developed a penchant for writing fantasies that often satirised bureaucratic corruption and the materialism of the merchant class. Sibirskaia gazeta was committed to fostering the development of Siberian self-consciousness, something that Volkhovskii echoed in many of own his stories and poems, reflecting his long-standing view that building national identity among minority groups could help to challenge the centralised system of bureaucratic rule that characterised the tsarist state. By the late 1880s, the material hardships faced by Volkhovskii were worse than ever, while his meetings with the American traveller George Kennan convinced him that he should move abroad in order to win international support for all those opposing the tsarist government.

The present survey aims at creating the basis for an extensive study on poetry written by victims of political repressions in the whole area of Segregation in the Soviet Union: prisons, forced labour camps, Gulags and confinement. The research relies on evidence drawn from published and archive materials, concerning the 1918-1956 period. We propose a systematization of the corpus, based on a new methodology: the key-concept of ‘poetry of Zone’ as a literary track of testimony of political repression, which was synchronical to the imprisonment experience in the USSR.

Abstract:
When Lady Philosophy finds Boethius mournfully composing verse in prison, she immediately sets upon the poetic Muses surrounding him. “Who has allowed these theatrical whores (scenicas meretriculas) to approach this sick man?” she asks. The Muses, according to Philosophy, do nothing to help the invalid, playing upon his passions rather than nourishing his reason. I heard, however, that a most passionate muse slipped back between the bars when Philosophy wasn’t looking.While writing my essay for this collection, I spent several months immersing myself in the memoirs of Romanian polit-ical prisoners. There is almost nothing that could make a per-son want to dance less. Reading these texts made me inter-nalize the overwhelming sense of entrapment prisoners felt, even, sometimes, their paranoia. Though living in warm Texas, within walking distance of four supermarkets, I couldn’t help but imagine the cold and hunger that gripped these prisoners, kept them frozen like stones. In the harsher prisons, inmates were forced to maintain a single position, facing the door, at all times, so as to be permanently under supervision. Even when sleeping, they were not allowed to turn their faces to the wall, an insidious rehearsal that deprived them of any real rest.

Abstract:
This study examines some of the ways in which Dracontius’ prison experience is represented and dramatized in his ‘prison writings’: Satisfactio, Epithalamium Ioannis et Vitulae (Romul. 7), De laudibus dei (last section of Book III). The account of the crucial event in the poet’s biography, the only one of which he substantially reports, moves within broad and general literary and scriptural clichés, but always keeping in mind as its main referent the Ovid of the Tristia and Epistulae ex Ponto. Dracontius conforms, in several respects and on several levels, his own story to that of Ovid’s exile, in texts in which real autobiography and literary autobiography, life and poetry end up coinciding.

Full text
Abstract:
In this chapter, the focus is on oral poets and their diverse roles within different cultures and societies. The chapter begins by addressing the broad question of who the poets are, explaining that virtually anyone can assume this role depending on the social context. While oral poets can be found in various forms—from official court poets in medieval kingdoms to unpaid singers among labourers—there are recurring patterns that shape their societal roles. These poets are often bound by social conventions and are influenced by the economic and political institutions of their societies, indicating that the position of oral poets is not entirely random. This chapter further explores these positions through case studies of five distinct poets from various cultures: Velema Daubitu, a seer and poet in Fiji; Avdo Mededović, a Yugoslav epic minstrel; Johnnie B. Smith, a black American prisoner and song leader; Orpingalik, an Inuit poet and shaman; and Almeda ‘Granny’ Riddle, an American folksinger. These studies illustrate the variety of oral poets, from those who consider themselves mere conduits for ancestral voices to those who use personal experiences and social circumstances to compose their works. While each poet navigates different societal expectations and roles, their artistry is shaped by both their individual creativity and the cultural frameworks in which they operate. This reveals the complex interplay between personal expression and the collective, traditional structures that support oral poetry.
