Abstract:
Taking its point of departure in two contemporary Danish poets, Victor Boy Lindholm and Theis Ørntoft, the article discusses affective poetic responses to the climate crisis. The concepts of ‘eco-mourning’ and ‘climate-melancholia’ are examined in order to deliberate the possibility for human happiness in late modernism. Poems by the writers are analysed with Sara Ahmed’s theories on happiness and perspectives from posthumanist theory (Cary Wolfe) and Timothy Morton’s notion of dark ecology. It is argued that the teleology, autonomy and futurism that, according to Ahmed, is inherent to the pro

Abstract:
The article considers the tendency among young theorists to forget or repress poetry. As symptom, the aberrant dissociation of poetry from theory reflects an increasing technicization, not to say impoverishment, of critical language. The theoretical elders, on the other hand, clung to poetic insight with the urgency of hunger. Focusing on tropes of greeting, celebration, and sending, I explore an exemplary instance in the encounter between poetry and thought—when Heidegger met Hölderlin. Still, Heidegger's appropriation of poetry leaves a violent residue, a kind of critical warping that has re

Abstract:
What does it mean that Shelley publicly mourns the death a living Wordsworth in his poetry? This essay argues that Percy Bysshe Shelley's renunciation of a narrow concept of selfhood not only informs, but germinates, his psychological and political principles, and in the process shapes his response to William Wordsworth—not as an “egotistical” poet, but as one who paradoxically and enviably escapes mutability by being ontologically identified with forms of non-life. I argue that Shelley brilliantly (and correctly) attributes this position to Wordsworth's poetic thought through his own poetic t

This creative work begins with a poem written to commemorate Professor Judith Mosoff, a colleague who passed away on December 20, 2015.

The poem is followed by an essay that situates it and reflects on the possibility of knowing and relating to someone affectively through poetic imagination, as well as on the role that poetry can play in sharing mourning and fostering community.

Abstract Reading Olga Kirsch’s Afrikaans poetry, one is struck by the important role that the experience of loss occupies in her oeuvre. It is evident in the first two volumes of poetry she published while still living in South Africa, as well as in the five volumes she published after emigrating to Israel in 1948. Because her poetry, especially the volumes written in Israel, exudes an air of melancholy, this article uses Freud’s writings on loss, mourning and melancholia, as well as the historical tradition preceding his work, as a guideline in exploring the way in which the experience of los

The purpose of this thesis is to illustrate the process of mourning within the works of five key 'confessional' poets: Robert Lowell, Theodore Roethke, John Berryman, Sylvia Plath and Anne Sexton. I will use a psychoanalytical framework to explore the reverberations of a father's death in their poetry. I will illustrate the various methods employed by these poets to reconnect with this deceased figure in their poetry. By using psychoanalytical theories from Sigmund Freud to John Bowlby, I will illustrate the various pathways of mourning adopted by each of these poets and show how contemporary

Abstract:
This chapter argues for a poetry of dynamics within the Red Shirt movement. Rather than always aiming to be louder, various protesters found ways of producing sound that were intense and intensely affective without necessarily being volume-dependent. Working with the keyword “pity” or “pitiful,” which many dissidents used to describe themselves, I claim that different protest contexts valorize different modes of political engagement. For sound studies and music studies, it is necessary to consider the vernacular ways in which sound and dynamics are rendered poetic. The Red Shirts aimed toward pitiful sounding that hailed listeners to feel responsibility for their plight. The chapter engages three ethnographic examples: a man who sits in theatrical silence, orphan girls, and a stage musician.

Abstract:
Chapter 3 reads Wordsworth’s poetic theory as a far-reaching account of compositional pleasure. It considers the crucial relation between of poetry’s claims to truth and its claims to produce and communicate pleasure, and uses the question of poetic pleasure to explore the tense relation in Wordsworth’s prose between real language and events and the artificial and mechanical operation of verse. It goes on to position Wordsworth’s theory of poetry in opposition to the persistent critical problem of sublimation. In place of the assumption that artistic pleasures must be substitute satisfaction or sheer fantasy, it explores the claim that poetry might disclose existing but unacknowledged pleasure in the world. The challenges and pleasures of metrical verse, it argues, are for Wordsworth constitutive of its retrospective, reparative forms of attention. The chapter concludes by returning to Wordsworth’s poetry and considering how metrical pleasure might function as a form of mourning.
