Exploring a 1949 article C. S. Lewis wrote, "On Church Music," in which he tackles the ongoing argument about musical style and quality in church and concludes that the best worship is when we dislike the style but sing anyway because our fellow brothers and sisters seem to be edified by it, for true worship is sacrifice. We include pieces from "Correspondence with an Anglican who Dislikes Hymns" (1946) and Lewis' review of The Oxford Book of Christian Verse (1940, published in Image and Imagination).

A gale howls in from the sea as a traveller takes shelter with a smallholder on the Cornish coast. Above the hearth hang two relics: an old cavalry trumpet and a weathered drum, bound together with a brass-lettered lock. No one knows the word that opens it. As the fire burns low, the smallholder begins to tell a tale—half history, half haunting—of shipwrecks, silence, and the names that must still be answered. The Roll-Call of the Reef was first published in 1911 in Noughts and Crosses, a collection of stories by Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch. It remains one of his most enduring supernatural tales and has been reprinted in The Oxford Book of English Ghost Stories. Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch (1863–1944), who published as “Q”, was a Cornish writer, critic, and anthologist.

«Dijo que no podría deshacerme del cuerpo. Y no puedo. No puedo.» En la oscuridad (In the Dark) es un relato de terror de la escritora inglesa Edith Nesbit (1858-1924), publicado originalmente en la antología de 1910: Miedo (Fear). Más adelante reaparecería en El libro de Oxford de cuentos góticos (The Oxford Book of Gothic Tales). En la oscuridad, uno de los cuentos de Edith Nesbit menos conocidos, relata la historia de dos viejos amigos [Haldane y Winston] que se reencuentran y conversan sobre un tercer camarada, llamado Visger, un sujeto que posee la inusual habilidad de saberlo todo. SPOILERS «Cuando estudiábamos en la escuela con mi amigo había un chico. Era un tramposo. Siempre les decía a los profesores cosas malas que hacían otros niños. Pero no veía estas malas acciones con sus propios ojos. Simplemente lo sabía todo y los profesores le creían. No sé qué era. ¿Un tercer ojo o un sexto sentido?» Es casi sobrenatural cómo Visiger conoce los secretos más oscuros de cada persona. Esta capacidad de anticipación lo hace notablemente difícil de asesinar. Sin embargo, Haldane estrangula a Visger luego de que este «mojigato» insufrible le costó la relación con su prometida. La última burla de Visger es una predicción justo antes de morir: Haldane nunca podrá deshacerse de su cuerpo, y así se demuestra en el curso de la historia. «Siempre supo cosas que no podía saber», lamenta el asesino. Desde entonces, Haldane es atormentado por extrañas presencias durante la noche, a tal punto que ha decidido terminar con su vida antes de morir de puro terror en la oscuridad. En la oscuridad cuenta con un reducido elenco de personajes, y en el poco tiempo que pasamos con ellos adquieren agencia propia. Por un lado está Haldane, un hombre al borde del colapso nervioso después de haber sucumbido a la ira y el rencor, y haber asesinado a un tipo desagradable. Por el otro tenemos a Winston [el narrador], un sujeto de buen corazón que hace todo lo que está a su alcance para que su amigo logre recuperar la cordura. Y después está Visger. No pasamos tiempo con él, pero aun así entendemos a la perfección la clase de idiota que era: «Visger creció siendo un mojigato. Era vegetariano y abstemio, un fanático de la ciencia cristiana y todas esas cosas.» En este contexto, Winston convence a Haldane de realizar un viaje juntos. Durante un tiempo, las cosas marchan bastante bien. Las visiones dejan de atormentar a Haldane, sin embargo, este todavía conserva un comportamiento infantiloide cuando se encuentra en un sitio oscuro. A pesar de los mejores esfuerzos del narrador por liberar a su amigo de la desesperación, el ciclo que pronosticó Visiger se completa, aunque no de manera sobrenatural. Pensándolo bien, el final que plantea Edith Nesbit es tan absurdo, tan inverosímil, que el elemento sobrenatural bien podría estar presente de forma subrepticia. Como mínimo, estamos ante un hombre [Haldane] que es una especie de imán para cadáveres.

Today's poem marks the ides (or idus) or March, a day classically associated with the settling of debts (and maybe old scores, too).One of the foremost editors, literary critics, and anthologists of contemporary American literature, David Lehman is also one of its most accomplished poets. Born in New York City in 1948, Lehman earned a PhD from Columbia University and attended the University of Cambridge as a Kellett Fellow. He is the author of numerous collections of poetry, including New and Selected Poems (2013), Yeshiva Boys (2009), and When a Woman Loves a Man (2005).  Two of his collections, The Evening Sun (2002) and The Daily Mirror: A Journal in Poetry (1998), were culled from Lehman's five-year-long project of writing a poem a day. Yusef Komunyakaa called The Daily Mirror “a sped-up meditation on the elemental stuff that we're made of: in this honed matrix of seeing, what's commonplace becomes the focus of extraordinary glimpses....” Lehman has also written collaborative books of poetry, including Poetry Forum (2007), with Judith Hall; and Jim and Dave Defeat the Masked Man (2005), a collection of sestinas he wrote with the poet James Cummins.Lehman inaugurated The Best American Poetry series in 1988. As series editor, he has earned high acclaim for his pivotal role in garnering contemporary American poetry a larger audience. In an early interview about the series with Judith Moore, Lehman noted “I want the books to have a lot to commend them beyond the poems themselves. The 75 poems are of course the center of the book, but we want also to have a foreword by me that can provide a context, that gives an idea of what happened in poetry this year, and an essay in which the guest editor propounds his or her criteria.” Lehman's work as an editor also includes such volumes as The Best American Erotic Poems (2008), The Oxford Book of American Poetry (2006), A.R. Ammons: Selected Poems (2006), Great American Prose Poems: From Poe to the Present (2003), and Ecstatic Occasions, Expedient Forms (1996). He was the director of the University of Michigan Press's Poets on Poetry and the Under Discussion series from 1994 to 2006.A prominent literary and cultural critic, Lehman has published works ranging from an indictment of deconstruction, Signs of the Times: Deconstruction and the Fall of Paul de Man (1991); to a history of the New York School of Poets, The Last Avant-Garde: The Making of the New York School of Poets (1998); to a meditation on the influence of Jewish songwriters in American music, A Fine Romance: Jewish Songwriters, American Songs (2009). Lehman's numerous honors and awards include fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Guggenheim Foundation, and the Ingram Merrill Foundation, and awards from the American Academy of Arts and Letters and the Lila Wallace-Reader's Digest Writer's Award. On faculty at both the New School and New York University, he lives in New York City.-bio via Poetry Foundation Get full access to The Daily Poem Podcast at dailypoempod.substack.com/subscribe

Today's poem is by Michael Dana Gioia (/ˈdʒɔɪ.ə/; born December 24, 1950), an American poet, literary critic, literary translator, and essayist.Since the early 1980s, Gioia has been considered part of the literary movements within American poetry known as New Formalism, which advocates the continued writing of poetry in rhyme and meter, and New Narrative, which advocates the telling of non-autobiographical stories. Gioia has also argued in favor of a return to the past tradition of poetry translators replicating the rhythm and verse structure of the original poem.Gioia has published five books of poetry and three volumes of literary criticism as well as opera libretti, song cycles, translations, and over two dozen literary anthologies. Gioia's poetry has been anthologized in The Norton Anthology of Poetry, The Oxford Book of American Poetry, and several other anthologies. His poetry has been translated into French, German, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Romanian, Bulgarian, Chinese, and Arabic. Gioia published translations of poets such as Eugenio Montale and Seneca the Younger.—Bio via Wikipedia Get full access to The Daily Poem Podcast at dailypoempod.substack.com/subscribe

There were three major heteronyms: Alberto Cairo, Alvaro de Campos, and Ricardo Reis. Pessoa explained: “Pseudonymous works are by the author in his own person, except in the name he signs; heteronymous works are by the author outside his own person. They proceed from a full-fledged individual created by him, like the lines spoken by a character in a drama he might write.” For more about Pessoa and his heteronyms, read this fabulous essay in Lit Hub or watch this 30-min BBC Radio 3 profile of the author here.  Read this interview with Lynn conducted by Mathias Svalina in Blackbird.Watch Lynn Emanuel read with Lucia LoTempio and Lauren Russell for the Hudson Valley Writers' Center (90 min).

For the last forty-five years, the distinguished poets Molly Peacock and Phillis Levin have read and discussed nearly every poem they've written-an unparalleled friendship in poetry. In A Friend Sails in on a Poem (Palimpsest Press, 2022), Peacock collects her most important essays on poetic form and traces the development of her formalist aesthetic across their lifelong back-and-forth. Peacock offers a charming, psychologically wise, and metaphorically piquant look at navigating craft and creativity. This is a book both for serious poets as well as for anyone who wants a deep dive into the impact of friendship on art itself. Levin's most recent work, Mr. Memory and Other Poems, tackles themes of memory and longing and is as expansive and is it detailed. Another unique aspect of this already rare friendship is that they shared a therapist - one who was so beloved that, when she had a stroke and had to close her practice, both Peacock and Levin felt bereft like they'd lost a mother. In a fascinating role reversal, Peacock cared for her therapist after her stroke, and wrote magnificently about the experience and their years-long relationship prior to Joan's stroke in The Analyst (W. W. Nortton and Company, 2017).  Peacock is a poet, biographer, and memoirist whose literary life has taken her from New York City to Toronto, from lyric self-examination to curiosity about the lives of others, from poetry to prose and back again to poetry. In A Friend Sails in on a Poem she describes her decades-long friendship with distinguished poet Phillis Levin, quoting their poetry and outlining her personal rules for poetic form. In addition to The Analyst, Peacock's poetry collections include Cornucopia: New and Selected Poems from Biblioasis and W.W. Norton and Company. She is the founder of The Best Canadian Poetry series and the co-founder of Poetry in Motion on New York's subways and buses. Her poems have appeared in leading literary journals such as Poetry, The New Yorker, The Malahat Review, The Women's Review of Books, and Plume and are anthologized in The Oxford Book of American Poetry. She has written two books about creativity in the lives of women artists: The Paper Garden and Flower Diary. Peacock teaches online for the Unterberg Poetry Center at 92NY.

This Guyanese-born, British dub producer and engineer makes music that is a reflection of how he sees the world, which is to say, he sees people and places as deeply connected, deeply mixed, and he sees that who we are now carries reverberations of our ancestral roots. Press play to learn more! This episode features my reading of Guyanese poet John Agard's "Pan Recipe" (Oxford Book of Caribbean Verse, ed. Brown & McWatt, 2005), a brief sample of Byron Lee and the Dragonaires' “Jamaica Ska” (Kentone Records label, 1964), and a deep listen to Mad Professor & Jah Shaka's “Beyond the Realms of Dub” (Ariwa Sound Studio, 1982).  It is with a heavy heart that I dedicate this episode to Jah Shaka. Rest in Power.
