Recension: ”The Hatred of Poetry” av Ben Lerner BearBooks

In this inventive and lucid essay, Lerner takes the hatred of poetry as the starting point of his defense of the art. He examines poetry's greatest haters (beginning with Plato's famous claim that an ideal city had no place for poets, who would only corrupt and mislead the young) and both its greatest and worst practitioners, providing inspired close readings of Keats, Dickinson, McGonagall, Whitman, and others. The Hatred of Poetry takes its title (more or less) from a quote from Marianne Moore at the beginning: "I too, hate poetry". Lerner examines people's distrust of poetry (including poets') as stemming from the gap between the idea poem and its (always failed) actualization. Pris: 69 kr. e-bok, 2016. Laddas ned direkt.
