  • Los (no) saberes del poema.
    Frank Nagel / Frank Nagel / Javier Gómez-Montero
    La tradición de la modernidad puede considerarse también bajo el signo de la negatividad. Tanto la insistencia en conceptos de privación, diferencia y ausencia que caracterizan ciertos debates filosóficos de la segunda mitad del siglo XX, así como las figuras herméticas privilegiadas desde la lírica del simbolismo y las vanguardias imponen una ruptura de la mirada habitual y ve...

  • Stefan George
    Peter Morgan
    In an era of social crisis and change at the end of the 19th century, the German poet Stefan George created a modern social imaginary for homosexual men. The newly-coined term ’homosexual’ gave expression to an emerging category of modern man. But in discovering himself, the modern homosexual found little resonance in the society around him. Through his poetry George created a ...
  • Poetry Calling
    T. M. Moore
    Poetry plays an important role in the Bible, and this suggests it should have some role in the life of Christian faith. The essay in this book argues that Christians today must rediscover the role of poetry in the life of faith, and that some, at least, should be open to receiving a calling to poetry as part of their service to the Lord. ...

  • Sir Philip Sidney, Cultural Icon
    Richard Hillyer
    During the English Renaissance, the figure of the classical barbarian-identified by ineloquent speech that marked him as a cultural outsider-was recovered for stereotyping Africans. This book advances the idea that language, and not only color or religion, functioned as an important racial code. This study also reveals the way in which England’s strategic projection of a 'barba...
