With something of a poetry renaissance currently under way worldwide, there is now, more than ever, a need for a solidly-based methodology for interpreting poems: something more empirical than traditional ‘lit-crit’ approaches, and something more linguistically-informed than the version of ‘postmodernism’ rampant in certain Anglophone universities. The latter approach, which tends to allow the individual reader to do what he/she likes with a poetic text, is inadequate to interpret modernist poetry, whose English-language precursors may be found in the late Romantics; its pioneers were already writing (in France) as early as 1840. What is so different about the modernists? Most importantly, their works are monumental, in that they are strongly resistant to deconstruction. Contributing to this resistance is the fact that they are built around two deep-level propositions, each of which generates a set of indirectly-signifying images, sharing the same internal structure, but having a different vocabulary. Thus, they do not signify according to linear narrative, but according to these propositions—and the relation between them—which may be reconstructed by a careful comparison of images on the textual surface. Every text—as subject-sign—refers to an intertextual object-sign, which is usually another poem, but may also be a film or other form of art. Mediating between these two signs is their reader-constructed interpretant, which completes the semiotic triad. As this book shows, the novelty of this sign is thrown into relief by the contrast it makes with a lexical counterpart from the reader’s experience, which differs from the interpretant in structure. The book’s inclusion of French and Japanese, as well as English poems, shows that deep-level signifying mechanisms may well be universal, with considerable research and pedagogical implications.

In this book, James Longenbach develops a fresh approach to major American poetry after modernism. Rethinking the influential "breakthrough" narrative, the oft-told story of postmodern poets throwing off their modernist shackles in the 1950s, Longenbach offers a more nuanced perspective. Reading a diverse range of poets--John Ashbery, Elizabeth Bishop, Amy Clampitt, Jorie Graham, Richard Howard, Randall Jarrell, Robert Lowell, Robert Pinsky, and Richard Wilbur--Longenbach reveals that American poets since mid- century have not so much disowned their modernist past as extended elements of modernism that other readers have suppressed or neglected to see. In the process, Longenbach allows readers to experience the wide variety of poetries written in our time-- without asking us to choose between them.

This volume consists of a collection of essays, mostly by European scholars, on the ways modern poets have dealt with the crucial concept of "difference" in their practice of poetic composition. What is examined here through the works of Stevens, Roethke, Yeats, Pound, Ammons, Graham, Laviera, Reznikoff, and Kinsella is the range of strategies used in poetry to convey a sense of disruption, estrangement, disturbance, indeterminacy. The aim is to track down the many kinds of "difference" that these poets' works illustrate and the challenges they pose to the critic.

Modern Poetry contains poetry that refl ects a litt le of my childhood days (Beds, for example, relates my experience with the growing of fl owers back in the sixties but melds in with recent occurrences), and includes life stories of friends and those around me. More recently the sett ings for the poetry include locations to which I have traveled in Asia (Hong Kong); Europe (France, Italy); and North America (USA and Canada). In Christmas Shopping, I try to bring the readers to various countries in their searches for items endemic to their locations. I did not physically go to these stores but my research led me to them. Th e purpose, here, is to have the readers relate to their local Department store. I believe it delivers their personal involvement and help to take them to the location with which they are familiar or to which they can go and experience. Some of the poems are writt en in the fi rst person but they do not necessarily refl ect my experiences but are told from a personal perspective adding a provocative fl avor and a skew to fantasy. Modern Poetry seeks to elicit emotions that speak to the readers senses to make them want to read it again and again and, indeed, to commit some of the poems to memory. I believe Day to Day will resonate with people from many walks of life as it depicts the rat races that seem to control their lives. Modern Poetry has representations in areas of climate change, politics, banking, love, war, friendship, geography, social life and psychology. Th e writing style does not conform to the any classic poetry conventionfor example sonnet(14 lines with the a,b,b,a,a,b,b,a,c,d,e,c,d,e form). Instead, I simply write to portray my thoughts, not even employing iambic pentameter. Of course there may be times when it appears in parts of poems but it is purely coincidental and was not intended. I simply decided not to follow any conventional rules. I am, however, quite fascinated with the limerick and Modern Poetry contains two limericks, the only form that was followed at all. On several occasions, I write in response to turmoil in my life at the time. Th e sense that I want to portray in these is that I experience the same day to day trials and tribulations, hopes and hopelessness, trepidation and courage, anxiety and calm that a large percentage of people do. Night, I Cease to feel, Midnight Madness, Solitude and All for You all fi t into these categories. Th ere are others that refl ect what I see and hear of other people and I fi nd that the life experiences are common to many groups from diverse cultures and practices. Many of my poems have interpersonal relationships, particularly male female or more accurately, intimate relationships, at their core. You Made Me You and Let Our Light Shine are prime examples. Th e fullness of colour in this book, especially the illustrations, should give the reader a sense of presence at the scene and make for a lifelike experience. As I have presented my thoughts in various areas of moods, emotions and spirit the works have been presented in groups. Th is will allow a reader who wants to enjoy a certain type of reading to fi nd them all together making a reading session more relaxed. I believe that there will be persons with whom a poem or two will resonate. If you are one of them, then take the opportunity to share your thoughts and feelings with someone you would like to partake in that moment by sending the poem for that person to read and enjoy. I understand that my style of writing may be new to readers who are used to the conventional classic forms. I know, though, that aft er reading ten to fi ft een pieces, they will become accustomed to this style, and see it more akin to storytelling which they will fi nd to be quite enjoyable.

DIVIn this engaging book David Rosen offers a radically new account of Modern poetry and revises our understanding of its relation to Romanticism. British poets from Wordsworth to Auden attempted to present themselves simultaneously as persons of power and as moral voices in their communities. The modern lyric derives its characteristic complexities—psychological, ethical, formal—from the extraordinary difficulty of this effort. The low register of our language—a register of short, concrete, native words arranged in simple syntax—is deeply implicated in this story. Rosen shows how the peculiar reputation of “plain English” for truthfulness is employed by Modern poets to conceal the rift between their (probably irreconcilable) ambitions for themselves. With a deep appreciation for poetic accomplishment and a wonderful iconoclasm, Rosen sheds new light on the innovative as well as the self-deceptive aspects of Modern poetry. This book alters our understanding of the history of poetry in the English language./div
