The Gender of Sound
Anne Carson was born in Toronto in 1950 and taught Classics at universities across North America for more than forty years. Since the publication of her first book, Eros the Bittersweet, in 1986, Carson has produced a series of remarkable collections of poetry, translations, essays and talks, weaving between languages and genres and creating new forms of expression. Among her many translations of Classical works are her versions of the Oresteia, Antigone, Electra and Herakles, as well as her spellbinding renditions of Sappho. Desire, death and selfhood, our literary inheritance and our relationship to the past, recur in her writings as unresolved subjects. Her many prizes include Guggenheim and MacArthur Fellowships, the T.S. Eliot prize and the Lannan Literary Award.

Eros, bitterzoet
In de poëzie van antieke dichters als Sappho en Archilochus wordt Eros, de Griekse god van het verlangen, verbeeld als een paradox die zich laat omschrijven met het woord ‘bitterzoet’. Anne Carson onderzoekt in Eros, bitterzoet de verreikende implicaties van deze contradictie. Ze laat zien hoe de literaire verbeelding van verlangen verband houdt met uiteenlopende verschijnselen als de uitvinding van het Griekse alfabet, de wil tot kennis en de dynamiek van metaforen. Aan de hand van het werk van onder anderen Roland Barthes, Lev Tolstoi en Virginia Woolf verbreedt Carson haar zoektocht naar het verband tussen erotisch verlangen en de aantrekkingskracht van kennis. Steeds weer ontdekt ze een beweging voorbij het bekende, een reiken naar het onbekende. Eros is een werkwoord. Anne Carson (1950) is een Canadese dichteres, classica, essayiste en vertaalster. In haar teksten verbindt ze poëzie met proza, vertaling en kritiek. Voor dit experimentele oeuvre ontving ze vele prijzen, waaronder de Lannan Literary Award en de T.S. Eliot Prize for Poetry.

Il genere del suono. Un'esplorazione del suono secondo la prospettiva di genere
La storia umana è piena di suoni considerati sgradevoli, addirittura inaccettabili: voci acute, pettegolezzi, logorrea, isteria, lamenti e grida rituali. Chi li produce? Chi è deviante o carente rispetto all'ideale maschile di autocontrollo: donne, catamiti, eunuchi e androgini rientrano tutti in questa categoria. Dai miti dell'antichità greca a Margaret Thatcher, passando per le amicizie di Gertrude Stein e le teorie di Freud, il saggio di Anne Carson esplora il modo in cui gli stereotipi di genere influenzano da sempre la percezione del suono nella cultura occidentale. Carson ci invita ad ascoltare di nuovo e, così facendo, a reinventare le nostre concezioni di ordine, virtù e soggettività. "Ogni suono che emettiamo è una sorta di autobiografia."

Breaking Into Blossom
Poems with Extraordinary Endings“It goes without saying that Luke Hankins and Nomi Stone have curated a star-studded anthology of writers—from Ilya Kaminsky to C.D. Wright and Ross Gay—who cultivate an aura of surprise and wonder as their poems draw to a close. But to stop there would be to greatly underestimate Hankins’s and Stone’s powers as editors. What I find so compelling about this anthology—in addition to the masterful craft of the writers gathered here—is the project’s ethical and philosophical underpinnings. Here, Hankins and Stone set forth an ethics of poetic closure, as well as a detailed and practical taxonomy of all the myriad ways a poem can ‘break into blossom.’ Hankins and Stone reveal a poem’s aesthetics as being inextricable from its ethics, and this nuance makes for an incredible teaching tool. This volume is an achievement, a beacon, and a masterclass. Bravo!” - Kristina Marie Darling, author of Look To Your Left: A Feminist Poetics of Spectacle and Daylight Has Already Come: Poems

We Have Been Friends Together & Adventures in Gr – Memoirs
Raïssa Maritain (1883–1960), best known as the wife of the famous French philosopher Jacques Maritain, was a remarkable person in her own right. A poet, philosopher, translator, and mystic, she was at the epicenter of French intellectual life in the first half of the twentieth century. Her autobiography, We Have Been Friends Together, together with the second part, Adventures in Grace, were originally published in two volumes in 1941 and 1944. Both books are combined here and are now being re-issued for the first time. She chronicles not only her and her husband’s lives but also those of their friends—an impressive circle of important French intellectuals, writers, artists, professors, and influential priests. In luminous prose Raïssa recounts her childhood in Russia, her youth in Paris, and her momentous meeting with Jacques, followed by their conversion to Catholicism in 1906. She gives a vivid, personal account of the Thomistic Revival they helped to lead and describes the conversions of key figures in the French Catholic Renaissance—many of whom were the Maritains’ close friends. However, the underlying subjects of her autobiography are God’s goodness, the mysterious operation of grace in the soul, and the way that Raïssa and others were transformed by their encounter with the Divine. We Have Been Friends Together and Adventures in Grace are spiritual autobiographies written by a mystic with a difference. Raïssa was totally God-focused, but, unlike most mystics, she was not a religious by vocation. She attended the Sorbonne, married, and associated with the intellectual lights of Paris, New York, and Rome. She wrote a book for children, and published poetry, works on prayer, translations, and studies of modern authors. Raïssa also played a key role in the conversion of many and knew, often intimately, intellectuals like Ernest Psichari and Charles Péguy, the playwright Cocteau, the authors Mauriac, Claudel, and Bloy, and a number of painters, including Georges Rouault. Readers interested in spiritual biography, in mystics, in modern women authors, in the psychology of conversion, in twentieth-century French intellectual life, and in the Thomistic revival will find this book fascinating. Raïssa’s autobiography will also hold a special place in the heart of all those who believe, as did her godfather Léon Bloy, “There is only one misery . . . not to be saints.”
