Paola Tonussi"Rupert Brooke. Lo splendore delle ombre"Edizioni Areswww.edizioniares.itRupert Brooke: un nome, una leggenda. Così lo descrive l'amica Virginia Woolf. Il brillante studente e sportivo di Rugby, lo studioso di Donne e di Webster. Il sognatore che compone versi in giardino, a piedi nudi sull'erba, vegetariano ante litteram. Il poeta della transience, la precarietà della bellezza che presto svanisce, ma anche dei “sonetti di guerra” che, quasi suo malgrado, gli hanno dato fama di war poet. Ammirato da Pound, Eliot e Fitzgerald, Rupert Brooke è tutto questo e molto altro ancora. Un'intensa e breve vita, raccontata da Paola Tonussi in questa prima biografia italiana.Brooke muore andando ai Dardanelli e sarà sepolto in un'isola dell'Egeo dai compagni soldati, «ombre colorate», destinati a cadere poco dopo di lui «più tenui della pallida luce delle onde, / Che si rompe in fosforo nella notte».Paola Tonussi è studiosa di letteratura inglese e americana dell'Ottocento e del Novecento e collabora a riviste italiane e anglosassoni, tra cui “Brontë Studies”. Ha scritto tra l'altro su Byron, Dickens, Virginia Woolf, Eliot, Brodskij e i Brontë. La sua biografia Emily Brontë (Salerno, 2019), è stata finalista al Premio Comisso 2020 per la sezione dedicata. Per Ares ha curato War Poets.

In the previous episode "Dandies: Gentleman of Style from the 19th Century to Today", Carl was joined by cultural historian and maker of fine custom clothing, Nathaniel Lee Adams for a look at this most interesting breed of society's tastemaking men.  In this new episode, Carl and Natty take the discussion further and focus on the early 20th century, when a new brand of dandy was emerging  - one with style perhaps, but also often tinged by scandal. Being a "dandy" is generally thought to be more than just being a stylish dresser.  There is attitude, perspective and perhaps even a sense of the revolutionary that ties many of history's so-called dandies together.  In this episode, Carl and Natty start with the world of the dandy immediately following the death of Oscar Wilde and begin with a discussion of the British author and caricaturist Max Beerbohm and the  American self-proclaimed inventor of the tuxedo, Evander Berry Wall.  They then discuss the fascinating, complex black American boxer Jack Johnson, who in order to fight not only his opponents but the pervasive prejudice of his time,  created a boundary-breaking persona of style laced with scandal.  Returning to Europe the discussion continues Oscar Wilde's own nephew and writer (and also boxer),  Arthur Cravan, the War Poets including Rupert Brooke and Siegfried Sassoon, the minimalist Austrian architect Adolf Loos and finally one of the most polarizing personalities of them all, the flamboyant Italian poet and would be revolutionary, Gabriele D'Anunzio.  

This episode focuses on Siegfried Sassoon, a 20th-century poet and a convert to Catholicism, born into wealth and known for his anti-war sentiments during World War I. Sassoon, part of the Sassoon family, critiqued the war's conduct, leading to his public declaration against it and subsequent confinement. Learn about his friendship with fellow war poet Wilfred Owen, his post-war writings, and his eventual conversion to Catholicism in 1957. Joseph Pearce discusses Sassoon's impact, his later focus on religious poetry, and introduces a dramatic presentation, Death Comes to the War Poets, celebrating Sassoon's life and work.LEARN MORE - USE COUPON CODE AUTHORITY25 FOR 25% OFF: Poems Every Catholic Should Know: https://bit.ly/3rlPDwG Poems Every Child Should Know: https://bit.ly/3NDPVqp The Genius of G.K.

How much has our view of the First World War – one of mud, trenches and futility – been shaped by the work of a handful of poets? How did the British public respond to poems criticising the war effort? And why have some war poets been remembered, while others have been forgotten? In our latest ‘Everything you wanted to know' episode, the University of Exeter's Professor Catriona Pennell answers listener questions on First World War poetry – and argues that we should broaden our horizons beyond Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon.

We are joined by a former white supremacist and now a devout Catholic man of letters, Joseph Pearce. We discuss his conversion to Catholicism from a life of hatred, G.K. Chesterton, and why men must read poetry. Joseph shares with us the intimate tie between poetry and prayer, he clarifies our thoughts on truth and beauty, and drives home how poetry identifies and assists in the completion of an authentic man. Please join us in this conversation. "True perception comes with virtue, specifically the virtue of humility, it is humility that gives us a sense of gratitude, it is gratitude that opens the eyes to wonder, and it is only when the eyes are open to wonder that we are moved to contemplation, and it is only when we are moved to contemplation that the mind is open to dilation, and it is dilation which is the full opening of the mind to reality." - Joseph Pearce on The Catholic Gentleman Joseph Pearce is a premier literary biographer and author of our time, especially in reviewing the depths of the Catholic literary tradition. He is the author of acclaimed biographies of G.K. Chesterton, Oscar Wilde, Hilaire Belloc, and J.R.R. Tolkien, and books on English poetry and literature. He has hosted two 13-part television series about Shakespeare on EWTN, and has also written and presented documentaries on EWTN on the Catholicism of The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit. His verse drama, Death Comes for the War Poets, was performed off-Broadway to critical acclaim.

You'll sometimes find Edward Thomas' filed under "War Poets," but his best-known poem "Adlestrop" is an unique peace poem written a few days before war broke out in Europe. In it, "nothing" happens -- the sweetest nothing. This re-release of our performance of the poem with a rock band is part of our celebration of National Poetry Month 2022. 

Welcome to the Greetings and Felicitations, a podcast where I explore topics which might not seem to be directly related to compliance but clearly influence our profession. In this episode, I visit with Detective Ed Gillespie, from the Baltimore Police Department, who has incorporated the writing of poetry into his police work. We also talk about why a humanities approach to instructing police academy cadets can bring real change in policing. Some of the highlights include: Background of Ed Gillespie and why 9/11 changed him forever? What led to writing poetry? Poetry as therapy.  Connections to the War Poets. Teaching poetry at the Baltimore Police Academy. 6. Some of Detective Gillespie's favorite poems.

Like the aforementioned artists, War Poets draw on Americana, pop, and rock to achieve an aesthetic that’s refined but rootsy.  

Eighteen year-old Lena Fayre started her journey in Hollywood working with Golden Globe winning producer Jimmy Harry and emerging producer Sean Gould to create a set of deliciously melodic and energizing songs. She then recorded with award winning producer Chris Keup in the  White Star Sound studio in Virginia, with  collaborators ranging from the Dirty Projectors’ Olga Bell, to Bon Iver’s multi/instrumentalist Reggie Pace and acclaimed folk artist Sanders Bohlke. Upon her return to L.A., Lena completed the album in collaboration with three time Grammy nominated producer John Alagia. Her debut EP, OKO was released August 5, 2014 at a party in Los Angeles.

Dr Jane Potter, Senior Lecturer in Publishing at Oxford Brookes University, looks beyond the War Poets at the important role that books, publishers and the book trade played between 1914 and 1918.
