Descripción Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. America's most provocative intellectual brings her blazing powers of analysis to the most famous poems of the Western tradition-and unearths some previously obscure verses worthy of a place in our canon. Combining close reading with a panoramic breadth of learning, Camille Paglia sharpens our understanding of poems we thought we knew, from Shakespeare to Dickinson to Plath, and makes a case for including in the canon works by Paul Blackburn, Wanda Coleman, Chuck Wachtel, Rochelle Kraut-and even Joni Mitchell. Daring, riveting, and beautifully written, Break, Blow, Burn is a modern classic that excites even seasoned poetry lovers-and continues to create generations of new ones. With her knowledge of both classic and contemporary cultures, Paglia sheds illuminating light on the raw power of a wailing pop lyric as easily as she does on the cryptic wit of a line of Emily Dickinson. High school & older. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9780375725395
