Poetry at Goshen: What is Poetry?
http://poetryatgoshen.blogspot.com/2011/12/what-is-poetry.html
Monday, December 5, 2011. To end the semester, we're revisiting the question, "What is poetry? Based on their reading and writing this semester of 20th and 21st century poets- including a unit on the poetry of witness, the study of an individual volume of poetry by a poet of their choice, and the visits of several quest writers- students will write their own definitions. I can hardly wait to read them! December 6, 2011 at 4:42 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Poetry with the Liz. A Peace of Poetry.

Sunday, October 9, 2011. Death Fugue" translation analysis. Death Fugue," by Paul Celan, gives insight into the choice of words made by the translator. In the comparison of the translations by John Felstiner, and Christopher Middleton, the differences are even found in the titles. The lines that stuck with me from both translations has some striking differences, but through the inconsistencies I was able to get a feel for what Celan was likely trying to communicate in the original German. The translation...

Perceptions of Poetry: December 2011
http://prettypoets.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 7, 2011. Poetry. What is it really? Poetry is words; no it is so much more than that. Poetry is self-expression through depictions of situations and emotions by a writer.

All of these things are true and fine but really what is poetry? According to Webster poetry is “. As she creates two smaller ...

A Peace of Poetry. Monday, November 28, 2011. Curfew": Juxtaposition of Peace and War. Bats take to the air once the sun sleeps,. And snakes fill the ponds behind. Crumbled buildings. the mosques’ doors. Open for their initiates, inviting the night stars light. This day the police caught rays instead of men,. And children put clothes out to dry with. Their mothers, while warm wind. The air did not crack nor the the ground shake, calm. Sgt Gutierrez didn’t hold a dying man with. Throughout Here, Bullet.

Intro to lit: thoughts of semester life. Sunday, October 30, 2011. The Man, The Myth, The Bird. Downhill I came, hungry, and yet not starved;. Cold, yet had heat within me that was proof. Against the North wind; tired, yet so that rest. Had seemed the sweetest thing under a roof. Then at the inn I had food, fire, and rest,. Knowing how hungry, cold, and tired was I. All of the night was quite barred out except. An owl's cry, a most melancholy cry. Shaken out long and clear upon the hill,. Due in part to ...

Intro to lit: thoughts of semester life. Thursday, December 8, 2011. Poetry (n.): A Trick of Light. Why not write poetry that will aid in the spread of comfort, change or justice? Forche sums up why it is we need poetry: “If we have not, if we do not, what, in the end, have we become? And if we do not, what, in the end, shall we be? Who are we not to search them out in the late night in order to remind another soul at a kitchen table feeling hopelessly lost that he is not alone? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

A Peace of Poetry. Thursday, December 8, 2011. Primo Levi's "Buna": A Reflection on Transformation. The American Poetry Review,. Levi lovestruck, and ambitious, but soon transformed by his exposure to Auschwitz(Balakian). The style that Primo Levi implemented to write ‘Buna’ was quite interesting.
