A herald of desire, mortality, and the mission of poetry itself, Jane Miller's Paper Banners catalogs the intimate experiences that create a life, hoping that "what will survive of us is love." A herald of desire, suffering, mortality, and the mission of poetry itself, Jane Miller's Paper Banners "say the cosmos/ isn't hostile/ yet strangles a dove /with one hand." Against this angst, Miller steps outside of history to contemplate voices of love, aging, and artmaking. Many poems are addressed to family members, friends, and young poets, or pay homage to familiar figures taken by time or tragedy, including Virginia Woolf, Osip Mandelstam, and the Song Dynasty poet Li Qingzhao. In clear, short lines, these poems harken to ancient banderoles, or pennants, which announced rallying cries on the lances of knights and mottoes on the flags of ships. Here, Miller's Paper Banners are made of images of the American Southwest and scrutinize its political and physical landscape. Like skywriting streamed in white smoke, this collection bears its message on the wind, its words addressed to anyone. As Miller catalogs the intimate experiences that make up a life--friendships, loves, dreams, our human connection to the environment--Paper Banners becomes a hope that "what will survive of us is love."

'Falls jemand daran zweifelt, dass Altsein tatsächlich interessant sein kann, ist dies das Buch für ihn.' 'The Observer', 29.08.2010 Kann Altsein Spaß machen? Wenn man dieses Buch liest, wünscht man sich zuweilen, es wäre endlich so weit: endlich Zeit und Muße für Dinge, die man schon immer tun wollte, befreit von quälenden Leidenschaften, hochfliegenden Wünschen, Rivalitäten und Versagensängsten. Wer das Alter nicht erlebt, verpasst den besten Teil des Lebens, glaubt Jane Miller. 'Ich habe die Hoffnung, dass man im Alter neue Arten von Zeit, Vergnügen, vielleicht sogar Vitalität entdeckt; dass man trotz Vergessens, Verschusselns und Sich-Verhörens manche Dinge zum ersten Mal versteht.' Mit Charme und Humor erzählt die sechsfache Großmutter von ihrem Leben als alte Frau - und beweist dabei, dass das Alter die erfüllendste Zeit des Lebens sein kann.

Sixty per cent of teachers in Britain are women: 74 per cent of primary school teachers and 45 per cent of secondary teachers. This text proposes that behind the familiar image of the woman teacher lies a curiously neglected history. Drawing on both published and unpublished material, including teachers' own autobiographical writing, this book examines the current state of educational provision and its surrounding debates.
