Kathleen Jamie, Chitra Ramaswamy & Amanda Thomson: Antlers of Water - Live Event
No full text‘When we read and write, when we love our fellow creatures, when we walk on the beach, when we just listen and notice, we are not little cogs in the machine, but part of the remedy.’ These luminous words by Kathleen Jamie form part of the introduction to Antlers of Water, an outstanding collection of contemporary Scottish writing about nature and landscape.
The generosity of Jamie’s approach as editor of the collection goes beyond the stellar selection of contributors such as Amy Liptrot, Karine Polwart and Malachy Tallack: she also invokes the agency of readers to make a difference. ‘If, by reading, you are encouraged or confirmed in your love of the natural world, if you’re inspired simply to… look outside, then our job is done.’
In a discussion led by the BBC's Clare English, Jamie is joined by award-winning journalist Chitra Ramaswamy as well as visual artist and writer Amanda Thomson – both contributors to the anthology – to discuss Scotland, landscape and the more-than-human world around us.
This is a live event, with an author Q&A.

Kathleen Raine: Relectura creativa de la tradición lírica en lengua inglesa
No full textEl objetivo principal del proyecto apunta a realizar una nueva lectura de la poética de la escritora británica Kathleen Raine, a partir de una revisión crítica de algunos conceptos claves de la teoría literaria y de la tradición del género lírico. Asimismo, se pretende profundizar en la obra lírica de la autora para discernir la singularidad de su voz, o de sus voces, ante el fenómeno lírico, que interactúa con su labor crítica o interpretativa de otros poetas, por ejemplo William Blake, Samuel Coleridge, etc. Esta lectura, que buscará indagar las modulaciones que adopta, como rasgo diferencial de autor, la relación dialéctica particular entre los elementos del nivel formal y los del nivel semántico, servirá como respaldo a la traducción de un corpus de textos de la autora, y permitirá la difusión de una poeta prácticamente desconocida en nuestro medio cultural.El objetivo principal del proyecto apunta a realizar una nueva lectura de la poética de la escritora británica Kathleen Raine, a partir de una revisión crítica de algunos conceptos claves de la teoría literaria y de la tradición del género lírico.

This reading will start from a critical review of some key-concepts of literary theory and the tradition of lyrical poetry. Moreover, it aims at interrogating the lyrical work of the author in order to establish the singularity of her voice, or voices, as regards the lyrical phenomenon, which interacts with kathleen raine's critical and interpretative work on other poets, for example William Blake, Samuel Coleridge, etc. This reading intends to interrogate adopted modulations as distinguishing features of the author so as to clarify the dialectical relation between formal and semantic levels. It is to be expected that this task will facilitate the translation of a textual corpus of raine's poetry, thus enabling a better knowledge of a poet almost unknown in our cultural milieu.Fil: Montezanti, Miguel Angel.
