  • Los (no) saberes del poema.
    Frank Nagel / Javier Gómez-Montero
    La tradición de la modernidad puede considerarse también bajo el signo de la negatividad. Tanto la insistencia en conceptos de privación, diferencia y ausencia que caracterizan ciertos debates filosóficos de la segunda mitad del siglo XX, así como las figuras herméticas privilegiadas desde la lírica del simbolismo y las vanguardias imponen una ruptura de la mirada habitual y ve...

    Peter Morgan

  • The Plural of Us
    Bonnie Costello
    The Plural of Us is the first book to focus on the poet’s use of the first-person plural voice-poetry’s 'we.' Closely exploring the work of W. H. Auden, Bonnie Costello uncovers the trove of thought and feeling carried in this small word. While lyric has long been associated with inwardness and a voice saying 'I,' 'we' has hardly been noticed, even though it has appeared throug...
