Marcelo Moreno, Diego Recalde, Graciela Fernández Meijide, Néstor Rodríguez, Maga Kohan, Laura Sherman y Rómulo Berrut nos comparten sus textos elegidos. ¿Qué entendemos por “Dilogía”? ¿Y por “Horror Cósmico”? ¿Qué es el “Master de Juglaría”? Refrescamos poemas y narrativas de autores como Vladimir Mayakovsky, Clarice Lispector, Gabriel García Marquez, Alfonsina Storni, Raquel Campos, Salman Rushdie y José Pablo Feinman, en las voces de nuestros locutores Además, ¿ Por qué se lo considera a Mayakovsky “el primer rappero” de la historia? ¿En qué consiste el libro que Warho dedicó a América? ¿Qué hecho los une a Leonard Cohen y Federico García Lorca ? Antonin Artoud le envía una carta a Jacques Prevel contándole algunas impresiones sobre su literatura. Pensamos las letras de las canciones de Baglietto, Serrat, Gabo Ferro y José Carreras, entre otros. Como siempre, escuchamos las voces de nuestros oyentes quienes nos acercan sus propios textos o aquellos que escogieron de otros, para seguir creando este infinito collage sonoro de lecturas compartidas. POESIA 1110: Un espacio para pensar y resonar el acto poético en todas sus formas; la poesía de todas las cosas.
#Maiakovski possui uma grande obra de dramaturgia, sendo o principal nome do futurismo na #literatura. A #poesia de Maiakóvski é teatral, seus poemas foram criados para a leitura ao vivo, em voz alta, mirando os grandes auditórios e a praça pública. Em vida, o poeta realizou declamações para milhares de pessoas, a plenos pulmões.

In this week's episode of the Get Lit Minute, your weekly poetry podcast, we spotlight the life and work of poet, Matthew Dickman. Dickman is the author of three full length collections, All American Poem, Mayakovsky's Revolver (W.W. Norton & Co, 2012), and Wonderland (W.W. Norton & Co, 2017); and co-author, with Michael Dickman, of 50 American Plays (Copper Canyon, 2012), and Brother (Faber & Faber, 2016).

SourceThis episode includes a reading of his poem, "Slow Dance.""Slow Dance"More than putting another man on the moon,more than a New Year's resolution of yogurt and yoga,we need the opportunity to dancewith really exquisite strangers. A slow dancebetween the couch and dinning room table, at the endof the party, while the person we love has goneto bring the car aroundbecause it's begun to rain and would break their heartif any part of us got wet. A slow danceto bring the evening home, to knock it out of the park. Two peoplerocking back and forth like a buoy. Nothing extravagant.A little music. An empty bottle of whiskey.It's a little like cheating. Your head restingon his shoulder, your breath moving up his neck.Your hands along her spine. Her hipsunfolding like a cotton napkinand you begin to think about how all the stars in the skyare dead. The my bodyis talking to your body slow dance. The Unchained Melody,Stairway to Heaven, power-cord slow dance. All my lifeI've made mistakes. Smalland cruel. I made my plans.I never arrived. I ate my food. I drank my wine.The slow dance doesn't care. It's all kindness like childrenbefore they turn four. Like being held in the armsof my brother. The slow dance of siblings.Two men in the middle of the room. When I dance with him,one of my great loves, he is absolutely human,and when he turns to dip meor I step on his foot because we are both leading,I know that one of us will die first and the other will suffer.The slow dance of what's to comeand the slow dance of insomniapouring across the floor like bath water.When the woman I'm sleeping withstands naked in the bathroom,brushing her teeth, the slow dance of ritual is being spitinto the sink. There is no one to save usbecause there is no need to be saved.I've hurt you. I've loved you. I've mowedthe front yard. When the stranger wearing a shear white dresscovered in a million beadscomes toward me like an over-sexed chandelier suddenly come to life,I take her hand in mine. I spin her outand bring her in. This is the almond grovein the dark slow dance.It is what we should be doing right now. Scrappingfor joy. The haiku and honey. The orange and orangutang slow dance.Support the show
Irina is from Moscow and takes much of her creative inspiration from Russian cultural references that she discusses in this episode, especially film, art, and literature. Irina got her MA in graphic design at the Stroganov Academy of the Applied Arts, the alma mater of Rodchenko and Mayakovsky. She moved to Antwerp, Belgium to study Dutch and then to Moscow to work as a designer and art director at magazines such as Harper's Bazaar and Empire. After 10 years in the industry, she took the leap in 2020 to set up her own business, a sustainable e-commerce brand called Kikina Designs aimed at Gen-Z and Russian culture lovers. On her website you can expect to find futurist manifestoes hand-painted on silk scarves, post-Soviet cult classic movie heroes on t-shirts, and silver age poetry on hoodies. In this episode, Irina describes her favourite Russian food, films, and literature with a passion that would make anyone want to eat, watch, and read all of the above.

We welcome internationally bestselling author, Stephanie Danler, to discuss Stray, her memoir of growing up in a family shattered by lies and addiction, and of her attempts to find a life beyond the limits of her past. ** We start by discussing how Stray was not the most obvious follow-up to her bestselling novel, Sweetbitter, and how she knew this was what she needed to write next (even though she didn’t want to). (01:40) ** We discuss a powerful passage from Stray in which Stephanie touches on her impulse to destroy and how she continually fights her self-destructive impulses. (04:45) ** Stephanie shares how motherhood has been about shedding identities and made her question who she is, and also how the expectations of motherhood differed wildly from her own experiences. (10:30) ** We then discuss how motherhood is the craziest, most awe-inspiring thing we’ve ever done, but also how we need to leave more space for discussions around the challenges, shock and confusion of motherhood. (13:45) ** In writing Stray, Stephanie wrote from her wounds, those hot spots of shame and pain. We absolutely loved hearing Stephanie’s advice on how to find those places and write from them. (23:05) ** Stephanie excels at distilling people into two types: this one is people who trust the world and people who don't. In the beginning she wasn't sure if the Love Interest would last, but a passage in Stray reveals the answer as to how she keeps moving forward in her relationship. (26:35) ** We discuss one of our favorite topics -- the unlikeable female protagonist -- and get Stephanie’s take on whether we’ve made any progress since Tess in Sweetbitter. (31:51) ** Of course we discuss astrology with Stephanie … the three of us making a fire sign trifecta of Sagittarius, Aries and Leo! Stephanie shares what it’s like to live in a house full of fire signs! (37:45) ** Stephanie reads a passage from Stray about her Southern California mysticism and we discuss whether she still embraces that skepticism. (41:15) ** Stephanie reads a portion of Frank O’Hara’s poem “Mayakovsky” and tells us why she chose to open her memoir with this particular piece of poetry, as well as the role poetry has played in her writing life. (44:05) ** Stephanie shares the books she's reading and gives us an update on the various projects she is working on right now.

Um dos principais nomes da literatura ligados à Revolução Russa, #Mayakovsky representou o melhor da vanguarda libertária e experimental. O #poeta, chegou a ser visto com desconfiança. Depois que o regime brutal de Stálin o fez herói, nunca foi um homem de se conformar. Espírito irrequieto e aguerrido, para além de sua pregação revolucionária da primeira fase da revolução, encontramos um artífice talentoso da linguagem, com seus fúlgidos #poemas de amor, sua rebeldia selvagem, o uso da linguagem coloquial e experiências radicais de poesia visual.

Russian twentieth-century poetry is one of the pinnacles of European literature and we still know little about it. This event includes readings from Yesenin, Mayakovsky, Maria Petrovykh, Varlam Shalamov (still better known for his prose) and the emigre poet Georgy Ivanov, one of the very greatest of all Russian lyric poets. Stephen Capus, Robert Chandler, Boris Dralyuk and James Womack read some of their translations included in the new Penguin Book of Russian Poetry.

Fellow poet Naomi Shihab Nye says that Bob Holman's "life gusto and poetry voice keep the world turning." In this episode of The History of Literature, we tap into that voice, as Bob Holman joins us for a rollicking conversation about the poetic life he's led, from his birth in a small town in Kentucky to his decades living in New York City, where - in the words of Henry Louis Gates Jr. - he's "done more to bring poetry to cafes and bars than anyone since Ferlinghetti." Holman's latest works (Life Poem and The Unspoken, published recently by Bowery Books, were written fifty years apart. We'll ask Bob how he's changed as a poet and person in those years, and to give us his sense of where poetry has been, where it is now, and where it's headed. Poets and writers discussed or mentioned include ee cummings, William Blake, Gregory Corso, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Mayakovsky, the Russian futurists, Kenneth Koch, Ezra Pound, William Carlos Williams, Philip Roth, Donald Lev, Jackie Sheeler, Alan Ginsberg, Amiri Baraka, Jayne Cortez, Papa Susso, Pablo Neruda, Homer, Sappho, and Sekou Sundiata.

On August 13, 1950, a tragedy would occur on a newly refurbished pleasure cruiser in the middle of Riga, Latvia SSR when an unruly crowd surged onto her decks ultimately causing her to capsize. Of the 350 on board only 207 would make it out. Quickly swept under the rug by the Soviet leadership, this is a story that needs telling. This is the story of the PS Mayakovsy. Welcome to the 2019 season finale of Channel of Catastrophe.

Thanks so much to Nicole for commissioning this episode! I'm totally feeling this season so far, even if this episode felt a little bit sloppy in comparison with the first one. There's no avoiding that, I suppose, when you're linking this many plot threads together. We've got the main quest, where Eliot is out sailing to a strange island to find one of the seven keys, and then there's the side quest where Quentin, Julia, and Josh are following some vague clues around the city in an effort to track down one of the remaining magical batteries that Mayakovsky made. Turns out, one of their professors is out here doing some bonkers magic and has a grudge against the guy. In the end, though, Kady winds up stealing the remaining battery in order to save Penny. So, now what? Thanks so much for listening, and thank you again to Nicole for commissioning!
Quentin, Alice, Penny, and Kady travel to Brakebills South to study with Professor Mayakovsky whose unusual teaching methods draws the best out of his students. However, Kady receives the news of her mother's death and leaves Penny behind. Meanwhile, Eliot begins a relationship with a Brakebill's graduate, but the arrival of The Beast puts Brakebills on high alert. Episode grades: 107 Dave A- Wayne A 108 A-

Suzi and Alan Minsky talk to Katie Halper of WBAI's The Katie Halper Show about the role of independent media and politics in the Trumpian landscape we inhabit. Then Suzi speaks to prolific, award-winning playwright Murray Mednick, whose enigmatic "Mayakovsky and Stalin" runs until August 19 at the Lounge Theatre in Hollywood. The play examines two lives and two suicides, related but distant, responding to the liberating freedom of revolution in the Soviet Union, but then increasingly strangled and suffocated by the top down brutal dictatorship of Stalin, played by actor Maury Sterling (best known as Max on Homeland), who joins the conversation. The play traces the parallel stories of the giant of Russian poetry, Vladimir Mayakovsky, and his relationship to his love and muse, Lilya Brik (darling of Russia’s avant garde) and her husband, the literary critic Osip Brik. Their relationship exemplifies the freedom from conventional mores in the early years of the revolution. The second life and suicide is that of Nadezhda Alliluyeva, Stalin's young wife who committed suicide during a state dinner in 1932, renouncing her husband and his horrific policies, reflecting her despair and suffocation being married to the supreme dictator while millions perished.
Today I got to sit down with Casey McKinnon nerd actor of stage and screen. We talk about growing up a nerd and what made her decide to take the leap into the world of acting. Casey then talks to us about her current show, the world premiere of Mayakovsky and Stalin, She gives us an inside look into this new historical drama and especially into the life of her character, Nadya. I finish off the time talking with Casey about one of her favorite books, Frank Herbert's Dune. I find out which filmed version she prefers and what her hopes are for the future of the franchise.

This week on The Verb we're looking at writing mentors. How much different can a mentor make, how can we learn from their writing, and what kind of language should a mentor use? Joining Ian is the comedian Margaret Cho, who was profoundly influenced by her friend and mentor Joan Rivers. Margaret is a groundbreaking American comic who has been Emmy and Grammy nominated five times, hosts the podcast 'Monsters of Talk' and is currently on tour with her latest stand-up show 'Fresh Off The Boat'. Tim X Atack is a composer and sound designer who works across film, music and theatre; we commissioned him to create a audio piece inspired by the classical myth of Mentor and Athena. The award winning poet Sarah Howe explores mentoring in the world of poetry. This week Hollie McNish introduces us to the poetry of Rosy Carrick - who has been influenced by the Russian poet Mayakovsky. Producer: Faith Lawrence.

Julia Alekseyeva’s graphic novel Soviet Daughter: A Graphic Revolution was published by Microcosm Publishing in 2017. This is the intertwining story of two women: Lola, who was born in a Jewish family in Kiev in 1910, and her great-granddaughter Julia, whose family moved to the United States from Ukraine in the wake of the events at Chernobyl. Lola has gone through the Bolshevik revolution, the Civil War, the Stalinist purges, deportation to Kazakhstan, and the Chernobyl disaster and these are her real-life memoirs that lay the foundation for the novel. The chapters telling Lola’s story are alternated with shorter interludes from the contemporary life of the second protagonist, Julia, a representative of the generation of millennials, who are struggling to come to terms with their idealistic views on life and politics amidst the changing world order. Alekseyeva, who is a PhD student in Comparative Literature at Harvard University, works on avant-garde cinema in the USSR, Japan, and France, and her academic interest in visual narrative techniques has deeply affected her work on the graphic novel. The story-telling in Soviet Daughter is rich and intense, and also full of supplementary comments and explanations of various aspects of Soviet everyday life; however, the novel is very easy to read and grasps the readers attention from the very first pages. To this, the sincerity of Alekseyeva’s intonation contributes greatly. She does not shy away from being very honest about issues such as inter-generational misunderstanding, conflicts within family, and difficulties of the migrant experience yet at the same time she persistently maintains the tactful balance between a personal story-telling and a nearly academic inquiry into the experience of several generations of Soviet Jewish immigrants in America. The precursors of Alekseyeva’s novel are works such as Marjane Satrapi’s Persepolis, Art Spiegelman’s Maus, and Alison Bechdel’s Fun Home. Another major influence on Alekseyeva is actually Vladimir Mayakovsky, especially his work in Okna ROSTA. Soviet Daughter does, in fact, open by a quote from Mayakovsky. Julia Alekseyeva’s novel will be of much interest both to the broad readers audience, and also to the scholars of Soviet history, Jewish identity, and immigration. Into all of these themes it provides a fascinating insight. Olga Breininger is a PhD candidate in Slavic and Middle Eastern Studies at Harvard University. Her research interests include post-Soviet culture and geopolitics, with a special focus on Islam, nation-building, and energy politics. Olga is the author of the novel There Was No Adderall in the Soviet Union and columnist at Literratura. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

BB19 :: Efil4Onket by Simon Saint-SimonEfil4OnketDesigned and composed by Simon Saint-SimonC Ya Simon PukeyIt is with deep regret and sadness that we must confirm to the listenership the departure from The Ark of Simon Clifford Pukey. Not only was he the chief engineer of Black Box and an expert in his field but he was also a dear friend.Not citing ill health as a reason he referred to a desire to pursue more pure and consistent political and philosophical aims with his group Brothers Bear Arms. With this in mind Simon has issued the following statement (referenced in part below) on his Facebook account'I hereby recognise myself as a sovereign state and here forth remove myself from the digital media light district, severing all ties forthwith. Like all organic creatures I find repose in shadows. I find myself an auratic, autonomous and uncommodifiable individual and refuse any longer to support exploitative frameworks in exchange for vicarious identity & second hand love. Safe voyage my brothers and sisters. The night is long but i will be at your shoulder always. Dont forget.'This is my musical farewell (i only know how to party not how to grieve) at a loss of a dear brother as relevant as Ersnt, Mayakovsky, Bakunin, Cendrars, Kerouac, Levan, Alkan, Fellini, Prince and every other anarcho-disco legend not mentioned.Sounds:01 Loose Joints - Is It All Over My Face02 Bobby Konders - Nervous Acid03 DJ Hell ft.

Them: A Memoir of Parents (The Penguin Press) After an affair with the great Russian poet Mayakovsky, Francine du Plessix Gray's mother married a man who became a kingpin in the Cond- Nast fashion magazine empire. All the high fashion and social elite of New York are discussed, but they pale beside the evocation of true genius. Mayakovsky and poetry triumph over commerce.
