СОВРЕМЕННАЯ РЕЦЕНЗИЯ НА ПОЭТИЧЕСКИЙ СБОРНИК: ЖАНРОВЫЙ И КОМПОЗИЦИОННЫЙ АСПЕКТЫ

The purpose of the work is to study the review of a poetry book in terms of genre and composition. The novelty, in particular, is the choice of methods (quantitative estimation, empirical generalization, modeling) for the object. The article for the first time quantifies the multitude of reviews on the collection of poems published in Russia nowadays. It states that the traditional literary-critical (artistic) affiliation of the review – perhaps because of the quantity – is changing: now review of a poetry collection is not only a literary-critical genre, but also a journalistic genre, and partly scientific one, as well as a unit of the information system. If earlier art tasks were a priority for literary critics, now objectivity and accuracy of information are prioritized. For the first time the thesis is revealed that the individualization of the poetic book, bringing it to an individual identity: selfidentity. The purpose goal of the reviewer is an individualization of a poetry book, bringing it to an individual identity: self-identity, identity of oneself. In this regard, the review composition model is proposed: introductory part (header), information about the author, listing the features of his poetry, quotes. Not all those elements are obligatory and not all are equal: literary critic chooses from a set of poetic traits those that he considers important and that can serve his own purpose. Article sums up that the review in literary process is important, and the role of reviewer is still active – but active in a different way.

R. K. Singh: The Poet Who Celebrates 'senses' to attain 'Nirvana'

This paper discusses a few of R.K.Singh’s characteristic poetic traits that make him stand apart from all his contemporary Indian poets writing in English. His poetry is an honest attempt to portray the contemporary world in its true hue and color; present an inside-out delineation of the modern man; and touch upon all the so-called ‘untouchable’ i.e., topics such as ‘Sex’, ‘Prostitution’, ‘Cultural Degradation’, ‘Stinking Politics’, ‘Religion’, etc. Reader finds Singh celebrating all his senses in his ‘unique’ attempt to attain the state of complete ‘Peace’ or ‘Calm’. His poetry serves as a medium for him to reach the state of ‘nirvana’. Reader finds Singh’s poetry as a prism that diffracts the worldly affairs into different spectrums, analyses each, and again sums it all into a single hue of liberation and peace with ‘detachment’ displaying the mark of a seasoned ‘yogi’. The paper aims to encourage other researchers and people in the academia to explore recent band of emerging Indian poets expressing themselves in English.

Genre Crossing in Jamaica Kincaid’s ‘Girl’: From Short Fiction to Poetry

The paper intends to reread Jamaica Kincaid’s short story, ‘Girl’ (1978) and provide new insights into its understanding. It aims to analyse the poetic qualities, word choice, and structure of the text that are left not fully discussed by recent scholarship. The structure as well as the poetic language of ‘Girl’ make it an unconventional piece of writing falling between two literary categories and so hard to classify. ‘Girl’ apparently violates rules and transgresses conventions by being both poetic and going beyond the traditional fictional structure of a short story. The paper argues that ‘Girl’ is an unconventional piece of literature that crosses the borders of a short story to poetry. First, it obviously lacks the traditional structure to be classified as a short story. Second, the text embraces several poetic techniques which reveal it as poetry written in prose. Therefore, the paper purports to carefully consider the poetic techniques and rhetorical devices found in ‘Girl’ and make it much closer to a prose poem than a short story. The story depicts a pre-adolescent female being dictated by the instructions of a sharp-tongued mother who teaches her how to become a lady- both in the private setting of the house as well as in public- in contrast to what it is like for a woman growing up in Antigua. The paper’s considerations of Kincaid’s depictions of mother, daughter, and their relationship illuminate the poetic traits found including repetition, sound devices and word choice. The paper’s interpretation of ‘Girl’ reveals its poetic nature for being thoroughly repetitive and alliterative piece. The text’s repetitive quality does not only stimulate the reader’s intellectual appreciation of the text’s thematic notions and meanings but also promotes an overall unifying effect.
