Angels are undeniably associated with religion and more usually Christianity, Islam and Judaism. Often they are seen as supernatural beings, benevolent celestial intermediaries interposed between God, Heaven and humanity. Obviously there are complications, a fact that our classic poets through the centuries, including Alexander Pope, Edmund Spenser, Radclyffe Hall and Hafiz, use as they write verse to explain, to reveal and to help us understand exactly why Angels are so prevalent amongst our thoughts.

This episode originally aired on November 7, 2022 under the title “Poetry is Autistic.”“That seems largely like Autistic torture, because leaving the sanctity of a well-stocked library to go make small talk…” “Yeah, literally.” “Oh, my God.”“Due to the monotropic mindset, when we find something that is appealing, we have to dive deeply and fully into it…whatever it is that feeds this passion for us. If we are in the zone, we are healing.”“And can you imagine, like, the social anxiety? All you want to do is read. You're in the middle of a great book and you have to go ...

Esta es una colección de 24 poemas de la poeta Americana más famosa de la lengua inglesa. Emily Dickinson fue una poeta fenomenal, no sólo por sus artes innovadoras sino por su historia personal, la imagen que la vida formó en ella, y que le dio el aura de leyenda. Sus extraordinarios poemas no respetan las reglas tradicionales de la poesía, y la gran mayoría carece de título.

“When life throws you a bag of sorrow, hold out your hands/Little by little, mountains are climbed.” So ends Kate Baer’s remarkable poem “Things My Girlfriends Teach Me”. In “Nothing Tastes as Good as Skinny Feels” she challenges her listener to consider their grandmother’s cake, the taste of the sea, the cool swill of freedom. In her poem “Deliverance” about her son's birth she writes, “What is the word for when the light leaves the body/What is the word for when it/ at last, returns”.

Emily Dickinson exemplified the virtue of self-discipline. She wrote poetry largely for her own pleasure, and to exercise and increase her creative talents. Very few of her poems were published during her own lifetime, yet we know that she wrote consistently - perhaps every day - over several decades. Poetry was her way of knowing herself and understanding the world.

The poet Emily Dickinson rarely left her home after her mid-thirties, and saw few people aside from her father. When visitors came, she was apt to disappear into her room, and those who wished to speak with her did so through a closed door. Rather than interact with neighborhood children, she would send down baskets of gingerbread from her second story window. In 1874, when she was forty-four, her father passed away. The funeral was held in the front room of their home; she did not attend, but listened from her upstairs bedroom. During these years she created some of the most beautiful ...

Il presente programma fece parte nel 2004 delle manifestazioni universitarie di ICAMus a Firenze (un seminario e due concerti) dal titolo Solitudini creative, a cura di Aloma Bardi, dedicate a una stagione speciale, il Romanticismo americano, nelle sue potenti implicazioni musicali studiate attraverso il movimento filosofico e letterario del Trascendentalismo e la poesia di Emily Dickinson.

In various ways, and in a utilitarian cultural context that is not very receptive to poetry, a number of American poets have urged us to depart from a scripted, socially approved life—one defined by the dominant culture—and instead to follow a path of authenticity, one that resonates with who we really are, or imagines what we could be. The list of poets included in this book is both personal and very selective, chosen because at various points in my life they spoke to me in ways that shifted that life in what I now, in my twilight years, can see was the right direction. They were, in ...

Emily Dickinson, außergewöhnliche Poetin: Leben und Werk in einer Kurzbiografie! Alles, was man wissen muss, kurz und knapp. Infotainment, Bildung und Unterhaltung vom Feinsten.

Romantic Dialogues, first published in 2000, contributed to the modern recovery of a transatlantic dimension in literary studies. Part 1 of the book reassesses the events of 1776 as a painful amputation, severing one part of a close-knit republican community from the other. It looks at English visions of America, from Blake’s America, to Barbauld’s Eighteen Hundred and Eleven, and at Romantic Americans such Samuel Williams, William Ellery Channing, Gilbert Imlay and Estwick Evans, who absorbed England’s Romantic revolution long before America’s literary awakening took place. It ...
