Mindscapes: Laura Riding's poetry and poetics /
No full textTese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão.Esta tese propõe uma leitura revisionista da poesia contemporânea através do exame do caso de um dos mais esquecidos escritores norte-americanos do século XX: Laura (Riding) Jackson (1901-1991). O objetivo é demonstrar que Riding não apenas possuía uma poética definida e singular, mas que ela permanece uma das instâncias mais extremas e paradoxais do modernismo anglo-americano, a ponto de Riding abandonar a escrita da poesia em 1938. Recorrendo a conceitos de "formação do cânone" bem como às noções de "discurso" e "função do autor", em Foucault, investigo a construção do cânone da poesia moderna anglo-americana, recuperando o contexto e as circunstâncias da ocultação de Riding. Enquanto cubro os "discursos" poéticos em circulação na primeira metade do século XX-o "imagismo" de Pound, a "dissociação da sensibilidade", "impersonalidade" e "tradição" de Eliot, a "unidade orgância" e "ambigüidade" da Nova Crítica-ofereço um panorama crítico de modernismos alternativos sendo articulados à época. Minha intenção é demonstrar que os poemas de Riding são expressões vigorosas de um escritor para quem "a mente pensando se torna a força ativa do poema", para usar a apta formulação de Charles Bernstein. Entre minhas descobertas sobre as várias e complexas razões que levaram à não-canonização de Riding estão a hegemonia da Nova Crítica, o exílio voluntário de Riding da cena literária (onde são feitas ou desfeitas as reputações), sua recusa em ser antologiada, bem como em ser explicada em termos críticos que não os dela. Todos esses fatores, mais a "dificuldade" de sua poesia, contribuíram para fazer de Riding "a maior poeta esquecida da poesia norte-americana", como escreveu Kenneth Rexroth. Ajudado pelos insights de dois importantes críticos de poesia norte-americana, Charles Bernstein e Marjorie Perloff, defendo que a "poesia da mente" de Riding-onde o que está em jogo é que o que pensamos ser a nossa realidade-representa uma mudança radical no paradigma da poética modernista: de uma poesia centrada na imagem para uma poesia centrada na linguagem. Focalizando a experiência consciente e o tempo duracional do pensamento presente em seus poemas, concluo que as "pensagens" de Riding têm o objetivo preciso de constatar um fato universal: enquanto seres humanos e pensantes, estamos numa condição permanente chamada linguagem
Heritage tourism: a case study of the Laura Ingalls Wilder Heritage Site at Pepin, Wisconsin
No full textPlan BMany things must be taken into consideration when developing a heritage tourism site. It can be a wonderful opportunity for the community involved to benefit economically and historically. Heritage tourism can keep alive the heritage and traditions of the communities past. When it is discovered that a heritage site exists, the first step is to consult with the community. A site will not succeed without the acceptance and assistance from the community involved. Once the interest is known, the development process can proceed. After determining that there is a heritage tourism site possibility in their area, a commumity must do research to determine the feasibility of the site, what will make it a success, and how to obtain that success. This study will examine a community with a heritage tourism site that has been successful in developing and maintaining it's site. By conducting this study, other communities seeking information for developing their site will have an example and tool to work with. The site chosen for this study is the Laura Ingalls Wilder site in Pepin, Wisconsin. The town is rich with it's heritage associated with Laura Ingalls Wilder. The development and success for this town will be documented through this study. Laura Ingails Wilder is a perfect choice for examining heritage tourism. The author of many American Pioneer books, she has become famous all over the world. In turn all places that she or her family members lived are or are becoming heritage tourism sites. There are older ones that have been in progress for some years, such as the one in Pepin, and there are ones that are being discovered through the popularity of new books written about Laura's family. These communities would benefi greatly from the information this study will produce. Without the bene-fit of this knowledge communities who are unaccustomed to tourism or the way the other Laura Ingalls Wilder sites operate, may make terrible errors in development, tarnishing the site. This may also reflect badly on the other Laura Ingalls Wilder sites. It is important for new Wilder sites to examine all information and know exactly what they are doing when developing the site. If all the Laura Ingalls Wilder sites can benefit from each other's knowledge and experience it will greatly increase the market for all sites. The more detailed and expansive the sites are about their knowledge and sites to see, the more people are going to want to travel to as many sites as possible, learning all they can about the life of Laura Ingalls Wilder and her family. These sites not only attract Laura Ingalls Wilder fans but all people that are interested in the American Pioneer period of the United States history. This study will provide the knowledge for communities who are developing heritage tourism sites, especially those focusing on Laura Ingalls Wilder. This is a very important study for tourism and especially heritage tourism. When a heritage site is discovered communities run into the barrier of not having the experience and knowledge to develop the site properly. This study will analyze tourism in Pepin, Wisconsin to determine it's successfulness due to the fact that it is a Laura Ingalls Wilder heritage tourism site, and Wfit was developed in a way to provide tourists with a view of Laura Ingalls Wilder's past and the past of many Pioneer Americans. By studying this subject it will allow for many people to benefit. Tourist who are seeking the pleasure of the knowledge of the past, and communities who want to preserve their past and profit from tourism

Laura Riding Jackson papers
No full textLaura Riding Jackson (1901-1991) was an American poet, critic, and editor. She was closely associated with the Fugitive group, a cluster of American Southern writers centered at Vanderbilt University in Tennessee, which included John Crowe Ransom, Allen Tate, and Robert Penn Warren. She had a long partnership with Robert Graves; together they co-founded the Seizin Press, published several volumes of poetry, and co-edited the literary journal Epilogue. Jackson is generally acknowledged to have influenced the work of Graves, the New Zealand filmmaker Len Lye, and the writers James Reeves, Norman Cameron, T. S. Matthews, Jacob Bronowski, and W. H. Auden. The collection consists of correspondence between Jackson and Robert Nye, a British author, editor, and playwright, as well as manuscripts, newspaper and magazine clippings, and photographs. Subjects discussed include writers and writings, Martin Seymour-Smith, Robert Graves, and Nye
Dante's Beatrice ("dolce amica") and Petrarch's Laura ("dolce nemica") : "charis" and poetry
No full textTematem artykułu jest analiza dwóch najsłynniejszych postaci kobiecych w literaturze włoskiej, Beatrycze i Laury i roli, jaką ich charis, rozumiana jako uroda, wdzięk, ale także piękno wewnętrzne, czy nawet łaska w – przypadku Beatrycze – oraz pełen sprzeczności obraz wewnętrzny Laury rzutujący na stosunek poety do niej, odegrały w twórczości Dantego i Petrarki i w pojmowaniu przez nich celów poezji. Przedmiotem zainteresowania nie są historyczne cechy osobowości Beatrycze i Laury (nie wiemy nawet, czy ta ostania istniała naprawdę), a jedynie ich wyobrażenie literackie, obecne w różnych dziełach obu twórców. W analizie o charakterze interpretacyjnym autorka artykułu odwołuje się do "Vita Nuova" i "Divina Commedia" Dantego oraz do "Secretum" i "Rerum vulgarium fragmenta" Petrarki. Auto-dekonstrukcji miłosnej iluzji młodszego poety zostaje przeciwstawiony ewolucyjny wymiar miłości Alighierego: oba te zjawiska decydująco wpłynęły na rozwój ich twórczych osobowości.The article contains an analysis of two most famous female characters in Italian literature: Beatrice and Laura and the role which their charis performed in the oeuvre of Dante and Petrarch. The author also analyses the poets’ understanding of the functions of poetry. Charis was described as beauty, grace, but also internal beauty, or even mercy – as in the case of Beatrice, and an internal image of Laura full of contradictions which affected the relation of the poet to her. The object of the research is not the historical attributes of Beatrice and Laura (we even do not know whether the latter actually existed), but their literary representations existing in different works of both authors. In the interpretative analysis the author refers to "Vita Nuova" and "Divina Commedia" by Dante and "Secretum" and "Rerum vulgarium fragmenta" by Petrarch. The auto-destructive amorous illusion of the younger poet has
been juxtaposed with the evolutionary dimension of affection by Alighieri: both phenomena decisively influenced the development of their artistic work
Raj wschodni, raj zachodni : ogród George Sand ("Laura, albo Podróż do wnętrza kryształu" : próba odczytania)
No full textArtykuł jest próbą interpretacji wizji ogrodu w powieści Laura, albo Podróż do wnętrza kryształu w świetle baśni Tysiąca i jednej nocy, hipotekstów Biblii i Eposu o Gilgameszu, estetyki miniatury perskiej oraz bachelardowskiej wyobraźni materialnej. Refleksja koncentruje się wokół symbolicznego wymiaru raju mineralnego obecnego w wizji zaproponowanej przez George Sand. Wizja ta wynika z antymaterialistycznych postulatów romantycznych, a jednocześnie zdaje się szczególnym wyrazem zainteresowań przyrodniczych i orientalistycznych epoki oraz samej autorki Laury.The paper proposes a reading of the depiction of a garden in Laura, or a Journey into the Crystal in the contexts of The Tales of One Hundred and One Nights, of the hypotexts of the Bible as well as of the Epic of Gilgamesh, of the Persian miniature and of Bachelard’s concept of material imagination. The symbolic dimension of mineral paradise in Sand’s vision is the focus of reflection. The vision stems partly from the romantic anti-materialistic concepts, and partly seems to be the expression of the preoccupations with the material and the oriental both of the epoch and of the author of Laura... herself
Where is She – the Author?
No full textArtykuł jest recenzją książki Małgorzaty Radkiewicz Refleksje zza kamery. Reżyserki o kinie i formie filmowej (2022), która prezentuje twórczość teoretyczną sześciu artystek filmowych. Są to: Alice Guy-Blaché (1873-1968), Germaine Dulac (1882-1942), Maya Deren (1917-1961), Laura Mulvey (ur. 1941), Trinh T. Minh-ha (ur. 1952) i Alexandra Juhasz (ur. 1964). Autorka skupia się na szczegółowym przedstawieniu wybranych tekstów tych twórczyń i wprowadzeniu w ich refleksję o filmie. Radkiewicz deklaruje, że jej celem jest podkreślenie ich obecności i znaczenia w historii myśli filmowej. W książce brakuje jednak podejścia krytycznego, pozwalającego na większe zdialogizowanie poszczególnych rozdziałów, a w ich obrębie – na odniesienia do kontekstu współczesnego i dzisiejszej teorii.The article is a review of the book Refleksje zza kamery. Reżyserki o kinie i formie filmowej [Reflections from Behind the Camera: Female Directors on Cinema and Film Form] (2022) by Małgorzata Radkiewicz, which presents the theoretical work of six female film artists: Alice Guy-Blaché (1873-1968), Germaine Dulac (1882-1942), Maya Deren (1917-1961), Laura Mulvey (born 1941), Trinh T. Minh-ha (born 1952), and Alexandra Juhasz (born 1964). The author focuses on presenting these artists’ selected texts in detail and introducing readers to their reflections on film. Radkiewicz declares that her goal is to emphasize their presence and importance in the history of film thought. However, the book lacks a critical approach that would allow for a greater dialogue between individual chapters and, within them, for references to the contemporary context and present-day theory

No full text“Black Eyes / Sour Life”. Visual Art and March ’68, on the basis of the exhibit Obcy w domu/Estranged
Illustrating the recent exhibition Estranged / Obcy w domu (Museum Polin, Warsaw, March-September 2018), the author wonders if, and how, contemporary Polish visual art has contributed to integrating the shame of the anti-Semitic campaign into the collective memory of the nation. She focuses in particular on the works of three artists: Krystyna Piotrowska, Erna Rosenstein, Krzysztof Wodiczko, and on how the exhibition represents some currents of visual studies linked to historical narrative
