"PREPOSTHUMOUS POETRY" Inspired by Nature, a gifted poet takes his readers on a journey through unimagined realms of thought, exploring topics hitherto unvisited by his predecessors, identifying wonders, limitations, complications and barriers, revealing connections, insights and possibilities that are a revelation, and that can leave a lasting impression on readers of these thoughtful, tightly-constructed, rhyming poems. These poems, many resulting from deep thought, others from heartfelt (and patriotic) feelings, provide fascinating ideas, skillful word wizardry, little-known historical accounts, entertainment, inspiration, enlightenment, personal observations, musings and reflections, vital messages and suggestions, inferences and deductions, remarkable conclusions, "incredible" facts, commentaries on life, amusing jabs at some human foibles, pop song writing errors, unintended consequences, thoughts regarding loving relationships and age-old human problems, an award-winning riddle, and possibly, the best short love poem ever conceived! Readers will be amazed by the range of topics covered, from the sublime to the commonplace, from a rap summary of American history, to why children ask "Why" questions, from what we're made of (stardust!), to what household dust's made of, even to what "is" is (we don't know!), and to why plastics are a problem! Although alphabetically presented and categorized, some poems defy any classification! Inspiration for these poems has come from many sources, in and out of this world! This poet's intact pre-TV imagination and poetic muse haven't set any boundaries to what topics could be explored and delineated, in poetic verse. This has led him to some intriguingly possible explanations for events and circumstances that have affected humans throughout history. Through poetic imagery, readers will learn new things they've never thought about! They'll discover a world of ideas that may never have crossed their mind, things they've not been told before, told in interesting ways that inform, without being boring, of how Nature's workshops continually perform miracles, how survival's aided by "programmed death," how and why differing "worldviews" can wreak havoc! They'll be enthralled by a poem about the timeless enrichment of Art, "What we have, other species have not!," told of the value of "true value creators," of capitalism's "greatest good," and of the disaster wrought by stock market analysts' predictions about stocks' future dividends, of possible causes of "gender confusion," of how Earth's fury can "transport" souls, and how Nature may "recycle" them! This book's a sojourn into the many levels of a thoughtful man's unique mind, guiding readers through a "museum of his intellect." Poetry lovers will enjoy and respond favorably to this poet's "magnum opus," a book of poems written during his last career (teaching, age 66-75), after spending much of his life attending colleges, learning how to continue to be useful to our country, before and after the Cold War. He brings a new, concise writing style to his poetry, with hopefulness and an inspirational poetic vision of how we might shape our future for a better world. Visualization can lead to realization, as in "Visualizations, Past And Future," wherein it states that this poet-teacher-engineer had invented the encrypted PIN "keys," thus enabling the ATMs that have made the world's banks accessible, even when closed!

Praise for Pre-Posthumous Poems: "There is an inviting paradox about these poems. The ones about animals and the natural world reveal bracing human truths while the ones about people-about our desires, our terrors, and our losses-remind us that we are as vulnerable and momentarily beautiful as a seagull. Hussman allows all of these meditations to find their own spare, and elegant, poetic forms." -Carmine di Biase, distinguished professor of English, Jacksonville State University, author of Travel and Translation in the Modern Period and The Diary of Elio Schmitz: Scenes from the Life of Italo Svevo About Hussman's previous chapbook, Last Things: "First-rate" and an "engrossing read." -Kirkus Reviews

A Pre-Posthumous Collection is a selection of work created during a period of abundant change and tragic loss.Each poem has been handpicked by the poet as homage to a person, place, or time that had a huge impact both in that moment and--as time has proven--for all the moments that have followed.In this collection are remembrances for lost family members, love poems, social commentaries, pleas for understanding, acknowledgments of faith, and hopes for the future.It is with great love and commitment that these words were written down; it is with great love and pride that they are offered to be read and enjoyed."There is nothing I am more grateful for, than having been able to share this miracle... with you."

English poetry in the first half of the seventeenth century is an outstandingly rich and varied body of verse, which can be understood and appreciated more fully when set in its cultural and ideological context.

There are individual studies of Donne, Jonson, Herrick, Herbert, Carew, Suckling, Lovelace, Milton, Crashaw, Vaughan and Marvell. More general essays describe the political and religious context of the poetry, explore its gender politics, explain the material circumstances of its production and circulation, trace its larger role in the development of genre and tradition, and relate it to contemporary rhetorical expectation. Overall the Companion provides an indispensable guide to the texts and contexts of early-seventeenth-century English poetry.

Is death the end, or a new beginning? Should it be feared, or embraced? Or is it simply a ceasing to exist? What better way to examine this great unknown than through poetry. Author Stephanie Buckwalter explores eight poems and poets, with chapters on John Donne, Emily Bronte, Walt Whitman, and five others. Accompanied by biographical information on the poet and end-of-chapter questions for further study, Buckwalter unravels each poem, including detailed analysis of form, content, poetic technique, and theme, encouraging readers to develop the tools to understand and appreciate poetry.

When C.P. Surendranýs poems were first published in the anthology Gemini II in 1994, he was hailed as a ýreal discoveryý. Posthumous Poems, his first collection of verse, establishes him as one of the foremost poets writing in India today. Stark and often violent, Surendranýs poems reflect his preoccupation with love, death and loneliness, as well as an acute awareness of alienation. Imbued with a rare intensity and integrity, they echo in our minds long after we have read them.

When poetry was printed, poets and their publishers could no longer take for granted that readers would have the necessary knowledge and skill to read it well. By making poems available to anyone who either had the means to a buy a book or knew someone who did, print publication radically expanded the early modern reading public. These new readers, publishers feared, might not buy or like the books. Worse, their misreadings could put the authors, the publishers, or the readers themselves at risk. Doubtful Readers: Print, Poetry, and the Reading Public in Early Modern England focuses on early modern publishers' efforts to identify and accommodate new readers of verse that had previously been restricted to particular social networks in manuscript. Focusing on the period between the maturing of the market for printed English literature in the 1590s and the emergence of the professional poet following the Restoration, this study shows that poetry was shaped by—and itself shaped—strong print publication traditions. By reading printed editions of poems by William Shakespeare, Aemilia Lanyer, John Donne, and others, this book shows how publishers negotiated genre, gender, social access, reputation, literary knowledge, and the value of English literature itself. It uses literary, historical, bibliographical, and quantitative evidence to show how publishers' strategies changed over time. Ultimately, Doubtful Readers argues that although—or perhaps because—publishers' interpretive and editorial efforts are often elided in studies of early modern poetry, their interventions have had an enduring impact on our canons, texts, and literary histories.

Excerpt from Posthumous Poems Principal occupation. At night, when the unclouded moon shone on the, calm Seahhe often went alone in his little'shallop to the rocky caves that bordered it, and sitting beneath their shelter wrote The Triumph of Life, the last of his productions. The beauty but strangeness of this lonely place, the re+ fined pleasure which he felt in the companionship of a' few selected friends, our entire sequestration from the'rest of the world, 'all contributed to render this period of his life one of continued enjoyment. I em convinced that the two months we passed there were the happiest he had ever known: his health even rapidly improved, and he was never better than-when I last saw'hjm, full of Spirits and joy, embark for Leg horn, that he might there welcpmelmqn hunt to Italy, vas to have accompanied him, but illness confined me to my room, and thus put the seal on my misfortune. His vessel bore out of sight with a fa vmuable wind, and I remained awaiting his return by the breakers of that sea which was about to engulph him.

From the Pulitzer Prize and T.S. Eliot Prize for Poetry winner comes a beautifully realized collection of poems about childhood, love, marriage, children, and honoring the dead. Larry Lewis say, “The Dead and the Living is an unignorable book, something truly rare. The feeling behind it is painful, but exquisitely so. Pain made into art or what, in another time, people called ‘beauty.’” It is an achievement of a poet writing in the full measure of her powers.

Since his first poetry collection, Lies, C. K. Williams has nurtured an incomparable reputation—as a deeply moral poet, a writer of profound emotion, and a teller of compelling stories. In Writers Writing Dying, he retains the essential parts of his poetic identity—his candor, the drama of his verses, the social conscience of his themes—while slyly reinventing himself, re-casting his voice, and in many poems examining the personal—sexual desire, the hubris of youth, the looming specter of death—more bluntly and bravely than ever. In "Prose," he confronts his nineteen year-old self, who despairs of writing poetry, with the question "How could anyone know this little?" In a poem of meditation, "The Day Continues Lovely," he radically expands the scale of his attention: "Meanwhile cosmos roars on with so many voices we can't hear ourselves think. Galaxy on. Galaxy off. Universe on, but another just behind this one . . . " Even the poet's own purpose is questioned; in "Draft 23" he asks, "Between scribble and slash—are we trying to change the world by changing the words?" With this wildly vibrant collection—by turns funny, moving, and surprising—Williams proves once again that, he has, in Michael Hofmann's words, "as much scope and truthfulness as any American poet since Lowell and Berryman."
