gail tremblay poems: Reading Poetry with College and University Students Thomas Fink, 2022-09-22 Reading Poetry with College and University Students aims to help faculty foster students' intellectual and aesthetic engagement with poems while enabling them to sharpen critical and creative thinking skills. Reading authors across history and the globe--such as Julia Alvarez, Amiri Baraka, Gwendolyn Brooks, Mahmoud Darwish, John Donne, Paolo Javier, Yusef Komunyakaa, Audre Lorde, and Wislawa Szymborska--Thomas Fink zeroes in on how learners can surmount and even enjoy tackling the most difficult aspects of poetry. By exploring students' emotional identification with speakers and characters of poems as well as poets themselves, Fink shows how an instructor can motivate students to produce effective and empathic interpretations. Through divergent readings of selected poems, the book addresses the influence of various theoretical paradigms, ranging from ecological, psychological, feminist, and queer theory to deconstructive, postcolonial, and surface reading orientations. Instructors receive practical guidance through these poems, poets, and modes of reading, helping to give learners raw material to reach their own nuanced interpretations and strengthen their emotional, aesthetic, and intellectual acumen. |
gail tremblay poems: Blues and Greens Alan Chong Lau, 2000-04-01 Alan Chong Lau’s poetic memoir of his days as a produce worker in Seattle’s Chinatown reveals a microcosm of grassroots, working-class Asian America—a world where customers, workers, and fruits and vegetables intersect in exchanges that crackle with energy and brim over with humor. With the simple profundity of a Zen koan, the poems bear witness to people’s humanity. Lau portrays in words and pictures a community in constant flux as it moves to the push and pull of immigration. Blues and Greens has a lot to say about Asian Americans. What emerges is an acutely observed, nuanced critique of where Asian Americans—native-born, refugee, and migrant—are today. |

gail tremblay poems: Indian Singing in 20th Century America Gail Tremblay, 1990 Indian Singing in 20th Century America is a book of poems about finding ways to endure in a confused world. It celebrates cultures that understand the need for ceremony and that respect the Earth as the supporter of life. These poems are based in old traditions rooted in the American continent and even when they talk of personal matters are informed by the experience of indigenous ways of seeing. They are, however, clearly planted in contemporary American experience and record the survival of a people who continue to show strength even though they often face great loss and adversity--from Preface. |
gail tremblay poems: A Line of Cutting Women Beverly McFarland, 1998 Fiction and essay anthology. Women's Studies. In this anthology culled from twenty-two years of award-winningCALYX: A Journal of Art and Literature By Women, a long line of writers share their visions of the worlds women create. What an extraordinary collection of worthwhile writing, brave in many cases, beautiful in almost all. A book to sit down with. I was able to remember my first reading of some of these stories -- many of them first publications -- and relive the excitement! -- Grace Paley. Anyone who still doubts the existence of a multicultural 'women's culture' will be forever changed by this book -- and will have enjoyed a fine read in the bargain -- Robin Morgan. Thirty-seven stories, drawn from two decades worth of issues ofCALYX: A Journal of Art and Literature By Women, demonstrate both how important a role the journal has played in providing a venue for both unknown and well-established writers, and how sharp its editorial eyes have been. There are superb tales here by such familiar figures as Julia Alvarez (the affecting ``Now World'), Linda Hogan (``Crow'), and Alicia Ostriker (``Esther, or The World Turned Upside Down'), as well as stunning work by less well-known writers, including M. Evelina Galang's Her Wild American Self and Hollis Seamon's Gypsies in the Place of Pain. The volume takes its title from a fierce, sad tale by Rita Marie Nibasa, about the ways in which love and violence often mingle. Because the stories are by women from a number of cultures, and because the tales embrace so many kinds of narrative views (from the grimly documentary to magic realism), the collection provides a useful overview of the large, diverse, often angry and usually vital work being produced by a new, and markedly varied, generation of women writers. First-rate short fiction.-Kirkus |
gail tremblay poems: The Woman of Too Many Days Mary I. Cuffe, 1999 Poetry. You might think I know/ the woman of too many days.// I don't. At least, I try not to./ She goes on and on,/ but I don't listen.// She happens to be where I am./ She happens everywhere,/ like a bad accident of a woman. THE WOMAN OF TOO MANY DAYS looks at the world askew and approaches wisdom through paradox. She is a realist, a magician, a crone, a seer, a maker of great fictions and a teller of truths. Vulgar, she sprays mango out her nose; elegant, she carries an old music box because 'music is the hardest child to leave behind.' Mary Cuffe's creation is compelling; this book keeps you listening -- David Swanger. |

gail tremblay poems: A History of British, Irish and American Literature Hans-Peter Wagner, 2021-10-04 The third revised and enlarged edition contains discussions of British, Irish and American literary works up to 2020. Focussing on outstanding writings in prose, poetry, drama and non-fiction, the book covers the time from the Anglo-Saxon period to the 21st century. The feature that makes this literary history unique among its rivals is the coverage of television/web series as a particular form of postmodern drama. The chapters on recent drama now contain detailed analyses of the development of TV and web series from Britain, Ireland and America, with extensive discussions of those series now considered classics. In addition, there are several major innovative features. To begin with, each century is introduced by a survey of the socio-political and cultural backgrounds in which the literary works are embedded. Furthermore, extensive visual material (more than 160 engravings, cartoons and paintings) has been integrated. This visual aspect as well as the introductory sections on art for each century give the reader an excellent idea of the symbiosis between visual and literary representations. Further innovative aspects include - discussions of non-fictional works from literary criticism and theory, travel writing, historiography, and the social sciences - analyses of such popular genres as crime fiction, science fiction, fantasy, the Western, horror fiction, and children’s literature - footnotes explaining technical and historical terms and events - a detailed glossary of literary terms - chronological tables for British/Anglo-Irish and American literatures an updated (cut-off date 2020), extensive bibliography containing suggestions for further reading |

gail tremblay poems: Returning the Gift Joseph Bruchac, 1994 An unprecedented gathering of more than 300 Native writers was held in Norman, Oklahoma, in 1992. The Returning the Gift Festival brought more Native writers together in one place than at any other time in history. Returning the Gift, observes co-organizer Joseph Bruchac, both demonstrated and validated our literature and our devotion to it, not just to the public, but to ourselves. In compiling this volume, Bruchac invited every writer who attended the festival to submit new, unpublished work; he then selected the best of the more than 200 submissions to create a collection that includes established writers like Duane Niatum, Simon Ortiz, Lance Henson, Elizabeth Woody, Linda Hogan, and Jeanette Armstrong, and also introduces such lesser-known or new voices as Tracy Bonneau, Jeanetta Calhoun, Kim Blaeser, and Chris Fleet. The anthology includes works from every corner of the continent, representing a wide range of tribal affiliations, languages, and cultures. By taking their peoples' literature back to them in the form of stories and songs, these writers see themselves as returning the gift of storytelling, culture, and continuance to the source from which it came. In addition to contributions by 92 writers are two introductory chapters: Joseph Bruchac comments on the current state of Native literature and the significance of the festival, and Geary Hobson traces the evolution of the event itself. |

gail tremblay poems: Ecological Literature and the Critique of Anthropocentrism Bryan L. Moore, 2017-10-14 This book is an analysis of literary texts that question, critique, or subvert anthropocentrism, the notion that the universe and everything in it exists for humans. Bryan Moore examines ancient Greek and Roman texts; medieval to twentieth-century European texts; eighteenth-century French philosophy; early to contemporary American texts and poetry; and science fiction to demonstrate a historical basis for the questioning of anthropocentrism and contemplation of responsible environmental stewardship in the twenty-first century and beyond. Ecological Literature and the Critique of Anthropocentrism is essential reading for ecocritics and ecofeminists. It will also be useful for researchers interested in the relationship between science and literature, environmental philosophy, and literature in general. |

gail tremblay poems: Modern American Counter Writing A. Robert Lee, 2010-01-21 The dissident voice in US culture might almost be said to have been born with the territory. Its span runs from Roger Williams to Thoreau, Anne Bradstreet to Gertrude Stein, Ambrose Bierce to the New Journalism, The Beats to the recent Bad Subjects cyber-crowd. This new study analyses three recent literary tranches in the tradition: a re-envisioning of the whole Beat web or circuit; a consortium of postwar outrider voices – Hunter Thompson to Frank Chin, Joan Didion to Kathy Acker; and a latest purview of what, all too casually, has been designated ethnic writing. The aim is to set up and explore these different counter-seams of modern American writing, those which sit outside, or at least awkwardly within, agreed literary canons. |

This is one of the finest collections of poetry I have come across in recent years.

Her poetic world is isolated, vast, impoverisheda'full of disturbing visions and surrealistic juxtapositions at the edge of myth. |
gail tremblay poems: Encyclopedia of Native American Artists Deborah Everett, Elayne L. Zorn, 2008-09-30 Indigenous North Americans have continuously made important contributions to the field of art in the U.S. and Canada, yet have been severely under-recognized and under-represented. Native artists work in diverse media, some of which are considered art (sculpture, painting, photography), while others have been considered craft (works on cloth, basketry, ceramics).Some artists feel strongly about working from a position as a Native artist, while others prefer to produce art not connected to a particular cultural tradition. |
