'Pilings of Thought Under Spoken': The Poetry of Susan Howe, 1974-1993.
No full textPhDThis thesis discusses the poetry published by contemporary American poet Susan
Howe over a period of almost two decades. The dissertation is chiefly concerned with
articulating the relationship between poetic form, history, and authority in this body
of' work. Howe's poetry dredges the past for the linguistic effects of patriarchy,
colonialism and war. My reading of the work is an exploration of the ways in which a
disjunctive poetics can address such historical trauma. The poems, rather than
attempting to reinstate voices lifted from what Howe has called "the dark side of
history", are a means of reflecting the resistance that the past offers to contemporary
investigation. It is the effacement, and not the recovery, of history's victims, that is
discernible in the contours of these highly opaque texts. Notions of authority are most
often addressed in the poetry through the figure of paternal absence, which has a
threefold function in the work, serving to represent social authority, an aporetic
conception of divinity and an autobiographical narrative. Alongside the antiauthoritarian
currents in the writing - critiques, for example, of the doctrine of
Manifest Destiny or of scapegoating versions of femininity - my thesis stresses Howe's
engagement with negative theology and with a strain of American Protestant
enthusiasm that has its roots in 17th century New England. The dissertation explores
the dissonance caused by the co-existence in the poetry of elements of political dissent
and religious mysticism. Finally, I consider Howe's engagement with literary history
and authors such as Shakespeare, Swift, Thoreau and Melville. The manner in which
Howe deploys the words of others in her work, I argue, allows for a mixture of textual
polyphony and a more conventional notion of authorial 'voice'
Take a bow, Brian Howe
No full textChild poverty fell significantly between 1985 and 1995, and the gains have persisted under John Howard, writes NICHOLAS GRUEN in this special report for APO
ONE of the world’s experts on the tax and welfare systems of the developed countries was in Melbourne a few weeks back. Australian Peter Whiteford was out from the OECD in Paris to give a talk to the Brotherhood of St Laurence on child poverty and in particular the success or otherwise of tax and transfer systems in helping to alleviate it.
In the front row of the audience were former Brotherhood executive director Peter Hollingworth (who worked there for 25 years) and former social security minister Brian Howe.
When Peter Whiteford put up the slide reproduced below, I thought to myself, “Take a bow, Brian Howe.” (In fact I even said the same - behind Howe’s back - to the person sitting next to me.) As Whiteford’s figures showed, in the ten years from 1985 to 1995 the number of children living in poverty fell from nearly 16 per cent of all children to 11 per cent
