Triangulating Truths

Triangulating Truths Jaclyn Piudik (bio) Everywoman Her Own Theology: On the Poetry of Alicia Suskin Ostriker Martha Nell Smith and Julie R. Enszer, eds. University of Michigan Press www.press.umich.edu/9958391/everywoman_her_own_theology 212 Pages; Print, $29.95 The work of Alicia Ostriker defies categorization. Ostriker, who was recently named Poet Laureate of New York State, is poet, essayist, scholar, feminist, critic, activist, teacher, humanitarian, partner, and mother. Her pioneering writing spans generations and genres, and has left an ineradicable mark on the literary world. To chart the career of such an accomplished woman of letters, one whose influence continues to evolve, is no simple task. However, Everywoman Her Own Theology, while not a comprehensive study, offers the reader a compelling, erudite encounter with Ostriker’s oeuvre. A collection of eighteen essays, including the book’s introduction by one of its editors, Martha Nell Smith, a student and friend of Ostriker, and one interview, Everywoman Her Own Theology draws its title from one of Ostriker’s poems with the same name, first published in The Imaginary Lover (1986), and gathers a body of outstanding poets and literary critics, including Tony Hoagland, Marilyn Hacker, Toi Derricote and Eleanor Wilner. The essays range from explorations of particular volumes of Ostriker’s poetry, to in-depth studies of individual pieces, to investigations of the themes and phases in her corpus, to her poetics and her scholarly prose. Taken together, the assemblage of essays stands as something of a Festschrift, a tribute to Ostriker’s writings and her impact over the last fifty years. The book is organized in a roughly chronological — but distinctly textured — manner, beginning with Joan Larkin’s interview, which grants the reader a personal acquaintance with the poet herself and a firsthand account of her history and writerly vision. It then progresses from the Blakean impulses of Ostriker’s early writings — Blake was, after all, was the subject of Ostriker’s graduate thesis before she edited his Complete Poems and published widely on his work — through her middle period and leads us to her most recent poetic inquiries, including the 2017 Waiting for the Light. What comes to the fore across the essays in Everywoman Her Own Theology are Ostriker’s preoccupations, her obsessions and, as Jenny Factor so deftly puts it in an examination of the poet’s affinities with Blake, “Alicia Ostriker, World-Builder: The Imaginary Lover, Green Age, and Other Points of Fusion with William Blake,” her use of “poetry [as] the vehicle and the method for cobbling an understanding of the world.” Any successful engagement with Ostriker’s opus would necessarily require attention to its inherent intersections and multiplicities, and to the feminism that lies at its heart. Editors Smith and Julie Enszer have curated a series of essays that does just that, allowing us to come to a deep appreciation of the questions that drive both her poetry and her criticism. Naturally, many of the contributions to the volume delve into a central theme in Ostriker’s work, the struggle with being a woman and a Jew and, by extension, her development as a biblical revisionist, creator of a new mythology which seeks to reconcile a passionate feminist ethos with ancient monotheistic — and patriarchal — religious tradition. Several consider Ostriker’s spiritual enquiries through studies of her ground-breaking 2002 the volcano sequence. For instance, Jill Hammer’s essay on that collection, “When the Mother is Dancing: Maternal Theology in the volcano sequence,” revisits “the maternal,” an early thrust in Ostriker’s canon, deconstructing the poet’s argument for “the mother as a fundamental source of spiritual experience.” In it, she presents a complex reading of the ways in which Ostriker challenges the psychology of the Old Testament “mother,” tying the concept to neo-Pagan and kabbalistic interpretations of the Goddess, the Shekhinah, and, no less significantly, to the human mother in all her guises. Eric Selinger’s thoughtful essay, “Mixed Dancing,” addresses the spiritual motif in the volcano sequence as well, introducing a question that Ostriker herself poses in the preface to The Book of Life: Selected Jewish Poems, 1979-2011 (2012), “What is it...

“When a Nation Has No Leader, Poets Become Its Leaders” (Ukrainian Indigenous Literature as Viewed by Yevhen Malaniuk through a Mythological Prism)

The article discusses the literary-critical and national political activity of the outstanding Ukrainian poet and states figure Yevhen Malaniuk, using a corpus of his literary-critical essays. The author analyzes the oeuvre of diasporic writers in comparison with that of indigenous Ukrainian poets and prosaists who lived under the yoke of ideological prejudices and persecutions of the Soviet era, a symbiosis of “socialist realism” with stillborn “modernism”. Yearning for their homeland, Ukrainian diasporic writers created images of Ukraine the Vision, Ukraine the Dream, Ukraine the Goal, and an ideological political myth of a nation state. Yevhen Malaniuk fulfilled this philosophical and political objective brilliantly. His mythological thinking generated the concept of Ukraine the Hellas as a phenomenon of global importance. From his perspective, only by the glorious heroics of patriots and passionaries is it possible to foster national awareness. However, even with titans such as Taras Shevchenko, Bohdan Khmelnytskyi, Ivan Mazepa, and Symon Petliura, Ukrainian society was nevertheless unable to grasp such heroic endeavors adequately. Outstanding Ukrainian cultural activists never succeeded in viewing reality from a critical perspective. The poet debunks Russian colonialism and castigates Russian pro-imperial literature, the “split” Hohol, the chauvinistic propaganda of Russian culture. Yevhen Malaniuk’s oeuvre is seen as occupying a unique role in our literature

“Natural Work” as Self-capability

A great wandering humanist philosopher, enlightener and outstanding poet Grigory Savvich Skovoroda’s work pertains to a difficult period in the life of the 18th century Eastern Ukraine. Against the background of growing injustice and evil, the decline of spiritual values, an authentic practical philosophy of individual opposition to a self-serving world steeped in vice was born. Skovoroda’s philosophy completely lacks the intention to consider proprietary interests as the driving force of human development. Its key principle of human development is self-examination within one’s own energy-activity-object-related space. The call for self-examination from the perspective of the authentic idea of “natural work” is revealed dynamically as the process of bringing the objective world into harmony with the nature of an individual. “Natural work” is a process of individual’s constant creative self-overcoming on the ascent to subject identity; total communion of man with the universal whole.

Remarks on Ovid and the Golden Age of Augustus

Publius Ovidius Naso was an outstanding poet of the Augustan age who after a period of successful activity was suddenly sent to exile without a formal judicial procedure. Ovid wrote frivolous poems but inserted into his works also the obligatory praises of Augustus. The standard explanation of his relegation to Tomis is the licentious content of his Ars Amatoria, which were believed to offend the moral principles of Augustus. However, the Ars had been published several years before the exile. The poet himself in his Pontic writings mentions an unspecified error and a carmen, pointing also to the Ars, without, however, a clear explanation of the reason for his fall. The writer of the present contribution assumes that the actual reason for the relegation of the poet without a trial were the verses of his Metamorphoses and especially the passage about the wicked stepmothers preparing poison. That could offend Livia who, according to gossip, used poison to get rid of unwanted family members. Ovid was exiled, but the matter was too delicate for a public justification of the banishment. When writing ex Ponto the poet could not explicitly refer to the actual cause of his exile.

Wileńska poezja okolicznościowa doby stanisławowskiej. Od projektu antologii do problemów edycji

The article presents plans to prepare an anthology of Lithuanian commemorative poetry written during the Reign of Stanislaw August Poniatowski. Libraries of Vilnius are in possession of numerous surviving pieces of commemorative poetry from the second half of the 18th century, especially from the years 1762–1794. It is hard to define the number of poems of that kind. Their authors are both students and professors of Vilnius universities, representatives of nobility and the clergy, as well as outstanding poets from that period. The prints serve as evidence of the literary culture of Vilnius, and are a kind of a literary chronicle of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania from the second half of the 18th century. The reason for their creation were both the major events of that period, such as an inauguration of bishop Ignacy Jakub Massalski (1762), election of Stanislaw August (1764), celebrations of anniversaries of the monarch’s election and coronation, his birthdays and name days, the completion of the proceedings of the Main Tribunal of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania – as well as family events and celebrations: baptisms, weddings, name days and funerals of various individuals. There are also compositions devoted to less important events, such as duchess Teofilia Morawska of the Radziwills’ return from a journey to Nieświez. Publishing an anthology of Vilnius commemorative poetry from that period is a chance to create a poetic chronicle of Vilnius and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania in the second half of the 18 th century. Preparing an anthology requires long preparations of various sort. Some of the poems are stored as separate prints, but in catalogues they appear under different titles, which sometimes have nothing to do with the author of the topic, some of the texts are published jointly with other prints or catalogued as manuscripts. One of the most important tasks is to define the author of all commemorative poems from that period, since they were not signed, but merely supplemented with the place which they came from. Vilnius commemorative poetry from the second half of 18 th century undoubtedly deserves attention. It refers to the major events from political and public life, it is evidence of commitment of those individuals to whom it was addressed, and also constitutes an element of the public life, as the compositions were often presented during various celebrations and referred to the symbols present in the public space.
