Blue Horses
Author: Mary OliverPublisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0698170040
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 96
Book Description
In this stunning collection of new poems, Mary Oliver returns to the imagery that has defined her life’s work, describing with wonder both the everyday and the unaffected beauty of nature. Herons, sparrows, owls, and kingfishers flit across the page in meditations on love, artistry, and impermanence. Whether considering a bird’s nest, the seeming patience of oak trees, or the artworks of Franz Marc, Oliver reminds us of the transformative power of attention and how much can be contained within the smallest moments. At its heart, Blue Horses asks what it means to truly belong to this world, to live in it attuned to all its changes. Humorous, gentle, and always honest, Oliver is a visionary of the natural world.

The Measure
Author: A Complete Edition of the Poets of Great Britain
Author: Yeats The Poet
Author: Edward LarrissyPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317866657
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 212
Book Description
This work addresses Yeats's "antinomies", seeing their origin and structure in his divided Anglo-Irish inheritance and examining the notion of measure. It then explores how this relates to freemasonry, Celticism and Orientalism and looks at the Blakean esoteric language of contrariety and outline which provided Yeats with the vocabulary of self-understanding.
