Dance in Poetry: An International Anthology of Poems on Dance
Angebote / Angebote:
The only book of its kind, this anthology of poems about dance puts forward several interrelated ideas: that poetry is itself a form that resembles dance, that the difficulties of writing about dance in prose are avoided in poetry, and that dance is a "language" that crosses cultures and centuries. Selections include Leonard Cohen's "Last Dance at the Four Penny, " Babette Deutsche's "Ballet School, " Li-Po's "Dancing Girl, " Howard Nemerov's "The Dancer's Reply, " Arthur Rimbaud's "Gibbet Dance, " Anne Sexton's "How We Danced, " and Yevgeny Yevtushenko's "Doing the Twist on Nails." Short profiles of the poets and sources for their poems are also included.
