Abstract
Introduction: Writing in other languages. Part 1 Lyra minima: a minimalist poetics - West to East (kharja to jue ju), ne plus ultra (tanka to haiku), systole and diastole, wind and water, where the twain meet golden lamps in a green night - la nina, metaphor versus symbol, cupido immitis uvae, down in the reeds by the river, orient and immortal fruit structure, style and symbol - espana toda es concetos, beyond pity and terror. Part 2 Strange islands, gardens of desire: insulas extranas - isles of the blest, the magic mountain, hortus conclusus the Isle of Venus (iconography of an archetype) - from mythos to praxis, the way to the centre, eros and gnosis, the iconographic perspective (I), the mythic-historical perspective, the iconographic perspective (II), the insula divina. Part 3 The horizons of silence: limits and thresholds - midsummer mirrors (bonfires of St John), to learn from stone, bis repetita placent, iconographic excursus, not frontiers but horizons beyond chrysanthemums - the dream in the glass, Basho's pond, repercussae imaginis umbra, a new paradigm?.
