Eliot's Ash-Wednesday is the minstrel comedy of The Two Black Crows. Both puzzling and obscure, this inspiration has not yet received the critical attention it deserves. By reading Eliot's interest in minstrel comedy alongside his concurrent religious conversion and change of citizenship, a fuller understanding of the poet's attempt to transform earlier influences into a new, Christian identity can emerge. In this way, minstrelsy proves to be an essential source of inspiration for both his early, pre-conversion writing, as others have shown, as well as for his later work as a conservative polemicist and religious poet.","PeriodicalId":44453,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF MODERN LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48983374","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Critics have debated whether Berryman's use of blackface minstrel conventions undermines or reproduces the racist ideological work of this cultural form. However, in Dream Song 40 and Dream Song 68, Berryman embarks on a related yet distinct project: a purportedly authentic, and unsuccessful, representation of Black personhood rather than a rendering of minstrel tropes. These two poems' complex failures in speaking of and for Black subjectivity and experience position Blackness as a site of opacity, negation, and social death: a presence that can't be represented or made the material of literary figuration. In this manner, they stage a challenge to postwar liberal narratives of racial amelioration, revealing how American social and symbolic orders themselves are predicated on racial abjection.","PeriodicalId":44453,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF MODERN LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47163752","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Stemming from his legal experience and his family history of loss, Reznikoff's methods of constructing Testimony, as archived in his notes, drafts, and correspondence, illuminate the work as his literary form of Kaddish, the mourner's prayer in Judaism. The poetic volumes express mourning for the lives he encounters in court documents: suppressed, recurring narratives, emblematic of the country's political and socioeconomic conditions. As the past resonates through Reznikoff's verse, the poetry's formal qualities stimulate grief in present audiences. Testimony takes readers through a process of mourning across time: listening to the lost voices of the dead, grieving the accumulated losses, and moving forward with a desire to remedy past injustices—bearing losses of the past to feel the urgency of a more just future.","PeriodicalId":44453,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF MODERN LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49522686","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The growing imbrication of consumerism with poetics can be seen both in the poetry of the late twentieth-century Chinese poet, Mang Ke (芒克, 1950-) and Ezra Pound (1885–1972) and their respective poetic movements: menglong (朦胧; \"misty\" or \"obscure\") poetry in China in the late twentieth century and the poetry of Imagism in the early twentieth century in the West. Juxtaposing these poets and movements shows that the spirit of modernism, once caught within material, historical and economic phenomena, does not belong to any particular culture. Its conjunction of relations among things creates the conditions of sensibilities for emerging affects imbricated with new modalities of feeling, understanding, and social organization.","PeriodicalId":44453,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF MODERN LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43720005","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

His best-known work, The Battlefield Where the Moon Says I Love You (1977), narrates the ways that mass media technologies and state infrastructures shaped regionalism and social structure in the post-1945 rural US South. The afterlife of Stanford's writing has been subject to its own form of mediation: from Stanford's death in 1978 up until the present, a cult following has kept his work in print through communal practices—trading photocopied manuscripts, participating in marathon readings of Battlefield, and organizing Frank Stanford festivals. While the aura surrounding Stanford has often disassociated him from the structures and communities that shaped his writing, both his work and its legacy disclose the institutional, mediatic, and infrastructural forms that enable rural avant-garde poetic practice.","PeriodicalId":44453,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF MODERN LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49321342","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The seventh sonnet of the second series of The Sonnets to Orpheus performs an allegory of this gentle dying that a good life is—cut flowers laid out on a garden table are tended by girls' hands. The allegory extends to the poet's writing, which is a version of the girl's ministrations, just as the form of the sonnet is a rendition of the gentle arrangement of the flowers on the table. Flowers and humans, Rilke claims, have a special kinship in their brevity, their vulnerability, their need for gentleness. Perhaps writing or reading a poem, such are the implications, can be an exercise in gentleness, for poems, too, are brief and vulnerable.","PeriodicalId":44453,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF MODERN LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47180107","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Countering widespread critical and theoretical tendencies to overlook women’s contributions to gift discourse and to essentialize generosity as an inherently “ feminine” gift, Colesworthy places literary studies and sociology in productive dialogue that achieves an effective balance between historicization and theoretical rigor. Throughout the book’s five chapters, she examines a diversity of texts, including novels, memoirs, and sociological treatises, with a particular focus on Marcel Mauss’s The Gift: The Form and Reason for Exchange in Archaic Societies, Virginia Woolf’s Mrs. Dalloway, Jean Rhys’s After Leaving Mr. Mackenzie, Gertrude Stein’s Ida A Novel, and H.D.’s The Gift.","PeriodicalId":44453,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF MODERN LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46404352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
