Hymns and Fragments
Despite his influence on such figures as Nietzsche, Rilke, Heidegger, and Celan, Friedrich Holderlin (1770-1843) is only now being fully appreciated as perhaps the first great modern of European poetry. Drawing on the most recent scholarship, this annotated translation conveys the radical idiom and vision that continue to make him a contemporary. Richard Sieburth includes almost all Holderlin's late peoms in free rhythms from the years between 1801 and 1806, the period just prior to his hospitalization for insanity. Professor Sieburth's critical introduction discusses the poet's career, assesses his role as a link between classicism and romanticism, and explores Holderlin's ongoing importance to modern poetics and philosophy. Annotations explicate the individual poems, a number of which are translated into English for the first time.

The Aeneid
The city of Troy has been ransacked by conquering Greeks and lies in smouldering ruins. A warrior, Aeneas, manages to escape from the ashes. He will go on to change the history of the world ...The Aeneid tells the story of an epic seven year journey that sees Aeneas cross stormy seas, become entangled in a tragic love affair with Dido of Carthage, visit the world of the dead - all the way tormented by the vengeful Juno, Queen of the Gods - and finally reach Italy, where he will fulfil his destiny: to found the Roman people. A sweeping epic of arms and heroism, dispossession and defeat, and a searching portrait of a man caught between love, duty and fate, The Aeneid brings to life a whole human world of passion, nobility and courage. This is the much-anticipated new version of Virgil's epic poem from the translator of the Odyssey and the Iliad. With this stunning modern verse translation Robert Fagles reintroduces the Aeneid to a whole new generation, and completes the classical triptych at the heart of Western civilization. It retains all of the gravitas and humanity of the original, as well as its powerful blend of poetry and myth.
With an illuminating introduction to Virgil's world from noted scholar Bernard Knox, this new Aeneid gives a vibrant, contemporary voice to the literary achievement of the ancient world.

Being Alive
Being Alive is the sequel to Neil Astley's Staying Alive, which became Britain's most popular poetry book because it gave readers hundreds of thoughtful and passionate poems about living in the modern world. Now he has assembled this equally lively companion anthology for all those readers who've wanted more poems that touch the heart, stir the mind and fire the spirit. Being Alive is about being human: about love and loss, fear and longing, hurt and wonder. Staying Alive didn't just reach a broader readership, it introduced thousands of new readers to contemporary poetry, giving them an international gathering of poems of great personal force, poems with emotional power, intellectual edge and playful wit. It also brought many readers back to poetry, people who hadn't read poetry for years because it hadn't held their interest. Now Being Alive gives readers an even wider selection of vivid, brilliantly diverse contemporary poetry from around the world. If readers were surprised by Staying Alive, the publishers were even more staggered by the postbag they received in response.
People from all walks of life wrote to express their thanks and appreciation, saying how much Staying Alive had helped or stimulated them and fired up their interest in poetry. They hadn't just bought one copy, they'd bought many copies to give to friends and family as presents. They also wanted to tell editor Neil Astley about other poems which had been important to them in their own lives, and Being Alive includes many powerful poems suggested by readers. Staying Alive has so far sold 75,000 copies. Being Alive is eagerly awaited by thousands of readers throughout Britain and Ireland.

The Book of Celtic Verse
The Celts have always loved words. They called their earliest bards 'Carpenters of Song' and 'People of Skill', and established a tradition which began with the intricate magical poems of Taliesin in the 6th century AD, continued in the rich Medieval works of Dafydd ap Gwilym and Rhys Goch, and in the 19th century work by Gerald Manley Hopkins, and can be found in the of 20th century work of writers such as R.J. Stewart, Robin Williamson and Catherine Fisher as well as a legion of other Celtic song-smiths, who have carried the torch of verse-craft and vision into our own time. John Matthews has chosen the finest works by these writers, and has translated many of the oldest for this volume. His selection reflects aspects of the Celtic tradition which are unique to these people: a love of nature, of history, and of the rich heritage of myth, legend, magic and spirituality which is among the finest in the world. We are the music-makers. And we are the dreamers of dreams, Wandering by lone sea-breakers, And sitting by desolate streams World-losers and world-forsakers, On whom the pale moon gleams Yet we are the movers and shakers Of the world for ever, it seems.

Circus Apprentice
In her new collection, Katherine Gallagher draws on a rich inheritance from her different worlds: Australia, Britain - particularly London - and France. Her subject matter ranges widely: travel, exile, returning, change, nature, war, family, illness, love, loss, death and childhood experiences, always rooted in a passionate sense of discovery and attention to place. She juxtaposes a mix of colloquial and more formal verse-styles to evoke immediacy and feeling with impressive clarity and freshness of voice. Lyrical and politically-tuned, her poems range between moments of deep feeling and satire, laced with an often wry humour veering towards the surreal. Many of the poems take the traveller as theme - 'traveller' in the widest sense, linking Gallagher's personal experience to the universal and showing the juxtapositions and layers to be discovered behind the seemingly familiar as well as the unknown. She has a great fascination with the natural world, its vibrancy and colour - expressed in moments of wonder and unease, as in her poems on environmental themes and in the eclectic sequence, After Kandinsky with which the collection concludes.
Her reflections on people draw in the multifariousness of everyday experience with wit, irony and elegance. Circus-Apprentice is an engaging, distinctive collection notable for its variety and seriousness, its adventurousness with word and image, and its sometimes understated, but sharply telling, content. Gallagher's poems combine candour and tenderness, humour and dark moments to tremendous effect.

Collected Poems
The centenary of Patrick Kavanagh's birth in 2004 provides the ideal opportunity to reappraise one of modern Ireland's greatest poets. From a harsh, humble background that he himself described so brilliantly, Kavanagh burst through immense constraints to redefine Irish poetry - a poetry appropriate for a fully independent country, both politically and culturally. Moving beyond Irish verse's preoccupation with history, national politics and identity, he turned to the land and scenery of his native Inniskeen, portraying the closely-observed minutiae of everyday rural and urban life in an uninhibited, groundbreaking style. Lucid, various, direct and engaging, Kavanagh's poems have a unique place in the canon and a unique accessibility. This major new edition is the culmination of many years of work by Antoinette Quinn in creating authoritative texts for Kavanagh's poetry - from his early works such as Inniskeen Road: July Evening' to his masterpiece, the epic The Great Hunger', allowing us to see the development of Kavanagh's genius as never before.

Earth Shattering
Earth Shattering lines up a chorus of over two hundred poems addressing environmental destruction. Whether the subject - or target - is the whole earth (global warming, climate change, extinction of species, planetary catastrophe)or landscapes, homelands and cities (polluting rivers and seas, fouling the air, felling trees and forests), there are poems here to alert and alarm anyone willing to read or listen. Other poems celebrate the rapidly vanishing natural world, or lament what has already been lost, or even find a glimmer of hope through efforts to conserve, recycle and rethink. Earth Shattering's words of warning include contributions from many great writers of the past as well as leading contemporary poets from around the world, ranging from Wordsworth, Clare, Hopkins, Hardy, Rilke and Charlotte Mew to Wendell Berry, Helen Dunmore, Joy Harjo, Denise Levertov, W. S. Merwin and Gary Snyder. This is the first anthology to show the full range of ecopoetry, from the wilderness poetry of ancient China to 21st-century native American poetry, with postcolonial and feminist perspectives represented by writers such as Derek Walcott, Ernesto Cardinal,Oodgeroo and Susan Griffin.
Ecopoetry goes beyond traditional nature poetry to take on distinctly contemporary issues, recognising the interdependence of all life on earth, the wildness and otherness of nature, and the irresponsibility of our attempts to tame and plunder nature. The poems dramatise the dangers and poverty of a modern world perilously cut off from nature and ruled by technology, self-interest and economic power. As the world's politicians and corporations orchestrate our headlong rush towards Eco- Armageddon, poetry may seem like a hopeless gesture. But its power is in the detail, in the force of each individual poem, in every poem's effect on every reader. And anyone whose resolve is stirred will strengthen the collective call for change.

Modern Women Poets
Modern Women Poets is the companion anthology to Deryn Rees-Jones's pioneering critical study, Consorting with Angels: Essays on Modern Women Poets. While its selections illuminate and illustrate her essays, Deryn Rees-Jones's superb anthology works in its own right as the best possible introduction to a whole century of poetry by women. The anthology draws together the work of women poets from Britain, Ireland and America as one version of a history of women's poetic writing, while not isolating women's writing from its intersection with the work of male contemporaries. Tracing an arc from Charlotte Mew to Stevie Smith, from Sylvia Plath to the writing emerging from the Women's Movement, and to the more recent work of Medbh McGuckian, Jo Shapcott and Carol Ann Duffy, the anthology draws together the work of women poets from Britain, Ireland and America as one version of a history of women's poetic writing. It shows important connections between the work of women poets and shows how - throughout past 100 years - they have developed strategies for engaging with a male-dominated tradition.
Modern Women Poets allows the reader to trace women's negotiations with one another's work, as well as to reflect more generally on the politics of women's engagement with history, nature, politics, motherhood, science, religion, the body, sexuality, identity, death, love, and poetry itself.

All Our Wonder Unavenged
A poet of osmosis explores the implicit relationship between matter and spirit, the interconnectedness of the universe.In his first full-length collection since 1998' s Parish of the Physic Moon, Don Domanski writes with clarity of vision. He is a poet of the holiness of subtleties, a master of mindfulness and being. His writing is a form of osmosis, spirit seeping through the details of each poem, creating a marvel of metaphysics and language distilled to purest energy. Living in the moment here is synonymous with being the moment, a transformation that is stunning to inhabit. The Star Bellatrix the bride turns in a trance red flowers fall out of her hands endlessly into black space her desire is a hesitance her body warm as if she were dancing spinning on a floor her partner unbeheld. Intensely moving, these fluid poems open up our perceptions of what it means to be alive in a sentient universe. Poetry renews itself with each generation, but there is a source of poetry older than all the languages. Don Domanski writes close to this source, where autobiography is necessarily transpersonal, and the variegated finery of existent things is both secular home and sacred text. Each of his books, but especially this book, is a mirror for the inexhaustible. - Roo Borson Each poem, beautiful, bewitching, unfolds with crystalline clarity and with a music that is both lush and subtle. Don Domanski's poems are intimate, but intimate on a grand scale. As far as I am concerned, there is no better poet writing in English. - Mark Strand Don Domanski was born and raised on Cape Breton Island and now lives in Halifax, NovaScotia. He has published eight books of poetry. Two of his books (Wolf Ladder, 1991, and Stations of the Left Hand, 1994) were short-listed for the Governor General' s Award for Poetry. In 1999 he won the Canadian Literary Award for Poetry. Published and reviewed internationally, his work has been translated into Czecho...

The New Directions Anthology of Classical Chinese Poetry
This rich compendium of translations is the first to look at Chinese poetry through its enormous influence on American poetry. Starting with Ezra Pound's Cathay (1915), it includes translations by three other American poets (William Carlos Williams, Kenneth Rexroth, Gary Snyder) and a translator-scholar-poet (David Hinton), all long associated with New Directions, the great New York literary publishing house founded just over 70 years ago.The collection gathers some 200 poems by nearly 40 poets, from the anonymous early poetry to the great masters of the T'ang and Sung dynasties. Also included are previously uncollected translations by Pound, a selection of essays (some also not previously collected) by all five translators and biographical notes that are a collage of poems and comments by both the American translators and the Chinese poets themselves. New Directions was founded by James Laughlin, then a Harvard undergraduate, in 1936 after Ezra Pound told him to do something more useful than write poetry.
Ever since New Directions has been dedicated to publishing (and keeping in print) the writers who are experimental, challenging, offbeat, and curiously classic both in English and in translation. Every day ND tries to keep language new.

On the Nature of Poetry
Almost a library in one volume, this unusual book, written by an accomplished poet, examines the 4000 years old phenomenon of poetry. It explains the underlying power of this art form and how its effect is exerted over human hearts and understanding. Since the Greeks at least, poetry has been accorded pre-eminence in the arts. Poetry's aesthetic supremacy and inhering mystery has made it the foremost form of expression when human beings need to say something important in a special way. Poetry has been defined as the best words in the best order. In poetry, the author suggests, the eternal intersects the everyday - it has been said that poetry is the language in which man explores his own amazement. He shows how poetry has provided a vehicle for inspiration and fresh ways of thinking and interpreting the perennial questions of the human race. The author makes clear that poetry 'works' because it acknowledges the universality of human psychology, and because it unites emotion with reason and tempers imagination with understanding. Over 200 poets are quoted and the work of 10 master poets is critically analysed and assessed.
The major factors involved in translating poetry are discussed, particularly the difficulty of conveying the meaning without losing the spirit. The central features of inspiration and creativity are elucidated. The unbroken stream of poetry carries resonances of the growth and decay of civilisations, the vicissitudes of wars, the effects of migrations and trading, the influences of religious belief. The author considers, from his own experience, that poetry remains peerless in evaluating and articulating the riches of the human spirit. Three books of sonnets, The Spacious Mirror, The Unseen Reflection and Sonnets, two books of haiku Awareness beyond Mind and Breathing with the Mind. Of his first book of sonnets, Kingsley Amis wrote 'They belong within the corpus of English poetry'.

Poems and Drawings
The aim of life is living creatures. The aim of art is living creations... - Joseph Albers. Josef Albers (1888-1976) was a painter, designer, writer and teacher widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in twentieth century art. From 1923 to 1933, he taught at the Bauhaus in Weimar, Dessau and Berlin, emigrating to the United States when the school was closed by the Nazis. There he taught at Black Mountain College and Yale University, deeply influencing generations of American artists. Poems and Drawings was first published in 1958 and was a project that was very important to Albers. In it, he creates parallel and complementary forms in words and line that would appear deceptively simple until they began to disclose their hidden meanings. 'Just as the drawings have a magical power to reverse themselves in all directions,' the blurb to the first edition ran, 'so the dialectic of this poetry, often disarmingly epigrammatic, depends on the power of each word to call forth its opposite.' By the simplest, most disciplined means Albers attempted to penetrate to the very core of the meaning of art and life.
The poems were printed in both German and English with Albers himself either translating or approving the translation of every poem. Printed initially in an edition of only 500 copies and long unavailable, this re-publication makes Albers' unique creation available for a new generation of readers. The Tate edition of Poems and Drawings has, in addition to the original, a new introduction by Nicholas Fox-Webber, an internationally recognised authority on Albers and the Director of the Anni and Josef Albers Foundation. The introduction includes previously unpublished material by Albers.

Pure Lizard
Transformation is the underlying theme of Sujata Bhatt's new collection, the title deriving from a mystical being with skin that is 'pure lizard'. The natural world is ever present in these poems monkeys, crickets and bats reappear in new incarnations, and a field of organic sunflowers in Pennsylvania is juxtaposed with sunflowers grown out of the toxic soil of Chernobyl. Pure Lizard also documents artistic exchange in its many forms: Schiller's desk is taken to Buchenwald during the Second World War, and Jane Eyre haunts a laboratory in Baltimore. There are poems in response to music by composers as varied as Telemann, Bob Zieff, and Philip Glass, as well as a poetic correspondence with the Welsh writer Gillian Clarke about a writer's sense of home and place, to be broadcast by BBC Radio Drama. Sujata Bhatt is one of the most distinctive voices in contemporary poetry. She is, the New Statesman declared, 'one of the finest poets alive', and alive in a unique way to issues of politics and gender, to place and history, to different cultural and linguistic traditions.

Strategies for Confronting Fear
'Lawrence's poems are skilfully made artefacts and intensely experiential...[His] characteristic attraction to intensity pays off in a newly austere lyricism.' (The Age, Melbourne). Anthony Lawrence is one of Australia's most highly-regarded poets and winner of two of the country's most prestigious poetry prizes. He characteristically sets his poems within powerful landscapes and seascapes. There is a dramatic confrontation in them, between the elemental forces of nature, and those within the consciousness of his characters. His focus is on relationships, the rhythms of work, and the presence of danger in these primal settings. In an interview, Lawrence says of his work: I'd like to think that [...] my poems achieve this tricky balance: landscape veined with humanity, flora, fauna, what's imagined and what's experienced [...] I write about nature to define my life. Strategies for Confronting Fear, a selection from his seven most recent poetry collections plus a substantial body of new work, is Lawrence's first volume of poetry to be published in the UK. 'Lawrence has crept up on the audience for Australian poetry.
He is now one of the most assured and challenging of our poets. This volume [The Sleep of a Learning Man] is a testament to craft skills at the service of a relentless self-questioning.' (Australian Book Review).

The Spirit of the Bush
There's trouble out there as I speak made up of wind and dust It howls around the homesteads and raintanks gone to rust The animals are dying, all choked up with flies and sand And though the folks aren't saying much, they need a helping hand ...So spare a thought next time you're driving down a country road For all those sunburnt people out there carrying the load Stop and listen for a second and I'll bet your pulse starts racing That's the spirit of the bush my friend, the heartland of our nation. Bruce Venables, author, actor, entertainer and popular Australia Day ambassador, has long been delighting crowds with performances of his poetry, written under the pen name of 'The Larrikin'. Patriotic, funny, sentimental and heartfelt, his verse pays tribute to the Australian spirit and sense of humour, celebrating such iconic subjects as The Bush, The City, War and Remembrance and Sport. Collected in print for the first time due to popular demand, a percentage of proceeds from sales of THE SPIRIT OF THE BUSH will go towards Paula Duncan's Wayside Chapel Drought Appeal.

Ashma
Ashma is a long and colourful narrative poem which has been handed down orally for generations by the Shani people in Yunnan. The poem describes a young village girl, Ashma, and her brother Ahay. In simple, unadorned language, it relates Ashma's determined struggle against the despotic landlord who has carried her off. With their vitality and their longing for freedom and happiness, young Ahay and Ashma epitomize the whole Shani people. A branch of the Yi, one of the minority peoples in Southwest China, the Shani live in Kueishan District, southeast of Kunming, the provincial capital of Yunnan. They have their own spoken language, and a simple written script. They love music and dancing, and can express their feelings and wishes with a simple musical instrument made of bamboo--the mo-sheen. From the age of twelve till the time of their marriage, young Shani people live away from home in special hostels for girls and boys, where, every evening, they can enjoy themselves by singing, playing flutes or stringed instruments, or making love. In the past, however, although they could love freely, they could not marry whom they pleased but had to abide by their parents' choice.
This explains why, for many generations, through Ashma the Shani people have expressed their longing for freedom and happiness. In the past the Shani peasants were exploited by the feudal landlords who seized the fruits of their labour every year, leaving them to live in misery. This explains why Ashma voices the Shani's fierce hatred for oppressors. Ashma is the most popular poem of the Shani people. Whenever a marriage takes place, old folk will squat on stools to sing Ashma and the young people will shed tears over Ashma's sufferings and rejoice at her victory. Those who are unhappily married will sing Ashma again and again, drawing strength and courage from the poem. Girls working in the fields will sing Ashma too, and they often used to say: Ashma's sufferings are the s...
