Anthony Thwaite Bücher

Spanning forty-five years in the poet's life and encompassing more than seven hundred letters, this collection of Larkin's writings includes his correspondence with Kingsley Amis, Barbara Pym, Robert Conquest, his editors, and many others.

Now that he is eighty-four, Anthony Thwaite says that Going Out is likely to be the last book of poems he publishes in his lifetime, and that the title is apt. The poems range over times and places, commemorating friends (especially the poet Peter Porter), and draw on memories, hard-won faith, self- questioning.

Since its publication in 1988, Philip Larkin's Collected Poems has become essential reading on any poetry bookshelf. This new edition returns to Larkin's own deliberate ordering of his poems, presenting, in their original sequence, his four published books: The North Ship, The Less Deceived, The Whitsun Weddings and High Windows. It also includes an appendix of poems that Larkin published in other places, from his juvenilia to his final years - some of which might have appeared in a late book, if he had lived. Preserving everything that he published in his lifetime, this new Collected Poems returns the reader to the book Larkin might have intended.

The book, first published in 1996, explores significant themes and concepts relevant to its field. It is published by Routledge, a well-known imprint of Taylor & Francis, which specializes in academic literature. The content is designed to provide in-depth analysis and insights, making it a valuable resource for students, researchers, and professionals.

A collection of verse that contains poetry from the earliest, primitive period, through the Nara, Heian, Kamakura, Muromachi and Edo periods, ending with modern poetry from 1868 onwards.

One of Americas best loved poets, Longfellow drew on his own experience of domestic tragedy to produce some of the most moving and honest poems ever written.

Das Leben der Claudia H. wird bestimmt von der Rivalität mit ihrem Bruder, von der eigenartigen Beziehung zum Vater ihrer Tochter und jenem tragischen Zwischenfall in der Wüste, bei dem ihr Geliebter ums Leben kam. Das liegt schon mehr als vierzig Jahre zurück. Aber eigentlich ist in ihrem Leben alles Gegenwart: Kindheit und Krieg, Ägypten, England, die ganze Welt und ihre Geschichte. Die Geschichte einer ungewöhnlichen Frau: Klug, selbstbewußt und geprägt von höchster geistiger Anspannung, lebt sie in ständiger intellektueller Auseinandersetzung mit ihrer Umgebung und mit sich selbst. »Was mich interessiert, ist das Gedächtnis, die Art und Weise, wie Menschen und Landschaften aus Erinnerungen zusammengesetzt sind«, schreibt Penelope Lively. Und genau darum geht es in diesem Buch: Die ganze Welt steckt voller Erinnerungen, die Vergangenheit ist allgegenwärtig – man muß nur, wie Claudia Hampton, Augen haben, sie zu sehen.»
