Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Conditional Future Perfect, Dan Curley's first book of poetry, is richly comic and subtly serious. The forty-eight poems in this volume invite us to share the daily wonders and blunders of family life, the ephemeral feelings and lasting lessons of travel (in Italy, mostly Rome), and to hear a range of elegies and other life stories that take us outside ourselves. In poem after poem, Curley is thoughtful, conversational, and witty. This is accessible poetry of the everyday that nevertheless lifts us to new heights of comprehension, revealing our inevitable follies and essential dignity. Francesca Bell, author of Bright Stain, writes, "Dan Curley's poetry collection, Conditional Future Perfect, abounds with deeply reverent irreverence and a rollicking, wry melancholy. With spectacular ease and grace, Curley infuses this book with jazz and Milwaukee, with kitties and barleywine and Sophocles, with carcolepsy and Ovid and 'the ahem / of gravity'. Each poem is finely constructed, lovingly honed, and seems to gaze at the world, despite its plentiful complications and disappointments, with a helpless, amused adoration. I say, come to these poems for their sweetness, their delight, but don't let sorrow hit you on the way out.". Johnson, S.L. (illustrator). …

Buch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Ovid is today best known for his grand epic, Metamorphoses, and elegiac works like the Ars Amatoria and Heroides. Yet he also wrote a Medea, now unfortunately lost. This play kindled in him a lifelong interest in the genre of tragedy, which informed his later poetry and enabled him to continue his career as a tragedian - if only on the page instead of the stage. This book surveys tragic characters, motifs and modalities in the Heroides and the Metamorphoses. In writing love letters, Ovid's heroines and heroes display their suffering in an epistolary theater. In telling transformation stories, Ovid offers an exploded view of the traditional theater, although his characters never stray too far from their dramatic origins. Both works constitute an intratextual network of tragic stories that anticipate the theatrical excesses of Seneca and reflect the all-encompassing spirit of Roman imperium.…
