When reason and emotion go together. Superb poem need not provide new insights, but it must involve

The subtitle Anne Carson jbhifi chose for his book Plain Water from 1995 reads "Essays and poetry" - a categorization that says both too much and too little. A unhappiness jbhifi at labels are hardly unique jbhifi to this Canadian author, who says yes to change, jbhifi to the movement.
Carson is the great innovator, while she is the great preserver: she combines ideals of romanticism, jbhifi from classical Greek, from modernism, and makes his own brew of disparate ingredients. It is not wrong to call her a poet. Even if you call her literary scholars. Or oracle.
Or essayist. The texts in this book moves between genres. For there are texts that refuse to stop himself. No living writer does the unexpected things that Carson. Here, the amazement an aesthetic criterion. It is written jbhifi in the surprise poetik. She writes in a completely friendly area, invents an entirely own space, its very own niche.
Must be good literature challenge, pushing the boundaries of what is possible? Well, so simple, it should not be, even if there are revilers, claiming that nothing is easier than writing difficult literature. That is to say, write something that will impress the easily amused critics who just like tricky name is ...
Then I would say that what makes the difference is the substance. Anne Carson knows what she is talking about, that here there is an anchor in genuine knowledge, which allows her to be playful and whimsical and constantly funny without resorting to FRIVOLOUS units. She is smart: but she does not use upper hand to make you feel stupid. Nor may he make you feel smart - the easy trick. No, because she understands that you do not read to learn things - at least not in the first place. You read because you want to experience the sublime amazement. To avoid routine.
Plain Water was published in 1995, and consists partly of a translation of a few short fragments of the forngrekiske poet Mimnermos, and an essay in which Carson discusses Thitonos, who was abducted and received eternal life - unfortunately not eternal youth, something which angered the goddess who falls in love with him . Ten years later discovered the new poem by Sappho, the one that makes her 58th fragments something more complete. Here is the Carson's translation of The New York Review of Books from October 20, 2005: "You, jbhifi children, pray zealous for the beautiful gifts of the Muses violetlapped
Carson jbhifi thinks himself more about the fragment, the version jbhifi she translated three years before the find: Thus, before deer calves (fawns) were given a context.
But in essence, it is the water that is Carson elements in this book, the water poet goes on, according to Pia Tafdrups poetics, and the water poet writes on, according to John Keats's desire. True, this is not poetry (and essays) to feel at ease with. However, there are related, where the various scattered parts are held together. The water Mimneros swimming in when his ancient fragments into English is the same water that poem self brother swimming and not swimming in when the book ends with related family stories, where life and literature are converging in a way that you hardly thought possible.
And it is the diversity that provides the big picture, the differences that creates kinship. That's jbhifi autobiography, yes, about a father who is about to go crazy, and so something else. The whole time something else, for it is after all a diktjags experiences, a diktjag who is or is not Anne Carson. It is touchingly portrayed, and therefore it is true. It is poetry, essay, literary criticism, the anecdote. And it elevated. The ambitious: on the same page, you can find Dickinson, jbhifi Dostoevsky and Hölderlin, as if she asks if it's too much, "well, then I might as well take in a little more."
To say the essay is to say a new way of writing the essay, just as it is a new way to write poems. The only incomprehensible poetry is that no more reads poetry, when it gives us lines like this, from the last part "The Antrophology of Water": jbhifi "It is alreadycreated late When You wake up inside a question.", A formulation is not going to resist: it wakes you up, lie down flat in question. Because that's what happens when you widen the tank.
When reason and emotion go together. Superb poem need not provide new insights, but it must involve a physical experience: there is something beyond the cerebral. Carson's book of poetry (essäbok) was published in 1995, the same year as David Fincher's film Seven. That which we call timeless is often difficult to define. Just as there is not an iota of Carson poems that are obsolete or time selected is Fincher's movie is still relevant. Tjocktv monitors, old computers, old cars and LPs passes but I react - until I see police Mills (Brad Pitt) run away an ashtray standing in a public corridor.
