A selection of poems by Father Jan Twardowski, whose religious lyrics are widely recognised for their spirituals orderliness and simplicity. “Poems redeem that which has been trampled upon. They contribute what is human and heartfelt, what has not been contaminated by hatred, envy, and bickering. They bring along orderliness and harmony. They purify today’s reality”. (Father Jan Twardowski) Wybór wierszy księdza Jana Twardowskiego, cenionego przez czytelników twórcy pełnej duchowego ładu i prostoty liryki religijnej. „Wiersze ocalają to, co podeptane […], objawiają się jako coś ludzkiego, serdecznego, co nie jest zatrute nienawiścią, złością, sporami. Wnoszą ład i harmonię. Odkażają dzisiejszą rzeczywistość”. (ks. Jan Twardowski)

“Różewicz's search for an absolute transparency of style articulates the moment of the poem as a kind of nothing that happens nowhere in particular, as if his personal biography disappears each time he sets words on paper — sets words in scorn of words to create an invisible anti-poetry which we seem not to read but to look through at some terrible fact that can never be pinned down, described, or sung.” Ze „Skrywając się w sobie: poezje Różewicza” Toma Paulina „Różewicz poszukując absolutnej przejrzystości stylu wypowiada moment wiersza jako swego rodzaju nic, które nie wydarza się w żadnym określonym miejscu — tak jakby osobista biografia autora znikała za każdym razem, gdy kładzie on słowa na papier — kładzie słowa w pogardzie dla słów, aby tworzyć niewidzialną antypoezję, którą nie tyle czytamy, ile raczej spoglądamy przez nią na pewne przeraźliwe fakty — nie do ustalenia, opisania czy wyśpiewania.” From ” Hiding Itself in Itself: the Poetry of Różewicz” by Tom Paulin

The first Polish-English edition of poems by Halina Poświatowska - a renowned and greatly popular figure in female lyrical poetry in Polish post-war literature. "Despite the passing of time Poświatowska is not forgotten by the readers. It is as if Poświatowska's charm could be sensed through her poems and acquired a special appeal. Perhaps she enchants with her feminine charm but at the same time she impresses with her existential courage." From Afterword by Anna Nasiłowska Pierwsze polsko-angielskie wydanie wierszy Haliny Poświatowskiej - cieszącej się uznaniem i niezwykłą popularnością przedstawicielki liryki kobiecej w polskiej literaturze powojennej. „Mimo upływu czasu nie zapominają o poetce czytelnicy; jakby urok Poświatowskiej był czytelny poprzez jej poezję i miał szczególną siłę przyciągania. I tak chyba jest - Poświatowska czaruje kobiecym wdziękiem, ale jednocześnie imponuje egzystencjalną odwagą". Z posłowia Anny Nasiłowskiej

Romantic Atheism: Poetry and Freethought, 1780-1830
Posted By: anjer | Date: 27 Jul 2007 10:01 | Comments: 6

Martin Priestman, Romantic Atheism: Poetry and Freethought, 1780-1830 (Cambridge Studies in Romanticism)
Cambridge University Press | ISBN 0521026857 | 2006 | PDF | 2.25 MB | 325 pages

Romantic Atheism explores the links between English Romantic poetry and the first burst of outspoken atheism in Britain from the 1780s onwards. Martin Priestman examines the work of Blake, Coleridge, Wordsworth, Shelley, Byron and Keats in their most intellectually radical periods, establishing the depth of their engagement with such discourses, and in some cases their active participation. Equal attention is given to less canonical writers: such poet-intellectuals as Erasmus Darwin, Sir William Jones, Richard Payne Knight and Anna Laetitia Barbauld, and controversialists including Holbach, Volney, Paine, Priestley, Godwin, Richard Carlile and Eliza Sharples (these last two in particular representing the close links between punishably outspoken atheism and radical working-class politics).

Leonard Cohen - Spice-Box of Earth
Publisher: Jonathan Cape | 1961 | ISBN 0224 006487 | 81 pages | PDF | 389 kb

This is the second book of Cohen's poetry and it is filled with his unique brand of religion and sexuality, the sacred and the profane. One of the fascinating aspects of Leonard Cohen's poetry has been its elasticity and it's interesting to see how it has evolved over the years; you only have to look at the poems in THE SPICE BOX OF EARTH(1961) compared to the poems in THE ENERGY OF SLAVES(1972) to see the difference; the great thing is that they're all GOOD!
