To Render a Black World

Abstract: This essay takes Kevin Quashie’s formulation of a black world as the summons and seeding of my engagement with Barry Jenkins’s filmic adaptation of James Baldwin’s If Beale Street Could Talk to speculate upon how a black world might be rendered in visual, multimedia, and cinematic arts. To do so, I reckon with the inherent dangers of black visuality, and of black publicness, within a carceral landscape saturated by ever more invasive, data-driven biometric technologies of surveillance and penal capture. My critical engagement with Jenkins attends to how his evasive and deconstructive cinematic experiments enact a mode of black poesis in line with Quashie’s formulation of a black world in poetry. In so doing, they undermine the constancy (and presumed transparency) of black visuality, along with its affiliated perils in a racist carceral society. Ultimately, this essay theorizes how black visual arts innovate expressive techniques, within a visual field structured by the antiblack semiotics of epidermalization and spectacularization, to render our world in everyday, living black splendor.

시와 산문의 경계에서 얻은 체득적 깨달음의 실현 - 장영수의 시를 중심으로

The purpose of this paper is to examine the world of poetry by Jang Young-soo, a poet from Wonju who wrote the Chiak Mountain series of poems. There are two main reasons for paying attention to Jang Young-soo. One is that even though he was born in Wonju, he was omitted from the history of Wonju poetry, and the other is that his works were published in only 6 volumes of poetry published by ‘Moonji Publishing’. He is a poet who sang the local sentiments of Wonju in the central literary world while simultaneously writing and researching. The memories of childhood expressed in Jang Young-su's series of poems, “Chiak Mountain,” are filled with dark, gloomy light. At times, the speaker's wishes are revealed through the heard cries of the vulture and the chickadee, and at other times, it appears as a purified space of new birth as he hears the story of meeting his mother who ran away from home only after 30 years. Afterwards, the concrete object called “Chiak Mountain” changed to “hometown” and became an abstract language. Early on, his poetry attracted the attention of the literary world for its significant punctuation marks. Afterwards, he was unable to satisfactorily demonstrate his will and passion for creation and academics. However, he is a poet who tried to feel the tension as much as possible in the relationship between everyday language and poetic language. Therefore, I turn every moment I realize in my daily life into a work of poetry. In particular, the boundary between poetry and prose feels vague in works with a confessional tone, but his creation continues.

Философия поэзии: проблемы изучения (обзор материалов «круглого стола»)

On October 24, 2023, as part of the scientific project of the A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences “Literature through Philosophical Prism: the History of Russian Lyrics in V. Solovyov’s Aesthetics”, supported by the Russian Science Foundation (RSF, project No. 23-28-00800), with the participation of the Moscow State Budgetary Institution of Culture “‘A.F. Losev House’ – Research Library and Memorial Museum” and with informational support from the journal “Voprosy Filosofii”, an International Round Table “Philosophy of Poetry: Problems of Study” was held. During the round table, the following groups of questions were discussed: 1) How do literature and philosophy interact in Russian lyric poetry from the late 18th to the early 20th century, and what are the connections between philosophical ideas reflected in contemporary philosophical concepts prevalent in the intellectual environment? How was poetry perceived and interpreted by Russian philosophers (Vl. Solovyov, N.A. Berdyaev, S.N. Bulgakov, A.F. Losev, S.L. Frank, and others), and what are the forms of influence of their philosophical-aesthetic systems on poetic creativity, including through literary criticism? 2) What are the theore­tical foundations and chronological boundaries of the existence of “philosophical poetry”? What are the similarities and differences between “philosophical poetry” and “poetry of thought”? What is the relevance and what are the epistemological possibilities of poetic anthropology, ontology, and gnoseology? 3) What are the mechanisms for generating philosophically rich symbols and mythologems in poetry? What are the teleological foundations of artistic rhythm? What function do the spatial-temporal coordinates that form the artistic world of lyric poetry serve?

Сердечные мотивы в творчестве Иосифа Бродского

The paper analyzes a number of poems by Joseph Brodsky that have not been previously investigated in detail by philologists and examines certain motifs and images that cause discrepancies in critics’ interpretations. The study aims to understand the poet’s creative work through a new perspective, to some extent, in a more “materialistic” and “physiological” way, which affects the emotional charge of the Nobel laureate’s main motifs. The study also aims to identify the role played by “heart” motifs in shaping Brodsky’s figurative and metaphorical world of poetry. The paper reinterprets the traditional connotations of heart imagery (life, death, pain, etc.) and shows how Brodsky’s worldview was shaped by the heart attacks, illnesses, and surgeries he endured. The scientific novelty of the study lies in its deep and detailed analysis of the system of motifs and images in Brodsky’s poetry, offering explanations for some obscurities in his poems that have caused significant difficulties and variations of meaning among critics. As a result, it has been proved that the philosophical inspiration of the persona and Brodsky’s overall poetic world is due to an alternative interpretation and understanding of heart imagery, endowing it with unique, Brodsky-specific connotations that form a dominant parallel between the poet and the heart.

Edward James Ted Hughes and his Animal Kingdom

This study explores the focus on the animal world in Ted Hughes' poetry. It argues that Hughes uses animals as vivid symbols of pure instinct and strength in addition to using them as symbolic figures. In analyzing poems such as "Hawk Roosting," "Pike," and "The Thought Fox," the article shows how these animals serve as mirrors, reflecting the darkness and violence that are part of human nature. Hughes' depiction of the natural environment also emphasizes the severe ecological realities and the continuous struggle for survival. As the speaker in poems like "The Thought Fox" longs to get back in touch with nature, the poet's sorrow over humanity's estrangement from nature is highlighted in the study's last section. Ultimately, Hughes's animal kingdom offers an effective frame through which we can examine the natural world ourselves, and the complex relationships among the three.

RHETORICAL IDEAL AND RHETORICAL IDENTITY. METHODS OF CREATING THE WORLD PICTURE IN ZHYRAU'S POETRY

The article deals with a topical problem - the study of cultural and national identity of Zhyrau poetry. The object of review is the techniques of creating the world picture. Attention is paid to the concepts of the rhetorical ideal and the rhetorical identity. The structure of the rhetorical ideal is analysed in its relation to the author's and national concept sphere. The national world picture is being studied from the position of cognitive methods of the poet's influence on the addressee. The systematisation of rhetorical arguments, strategies and techniques, rhetorical argumentative models is shown in the songs of Zhyrau - Shalkiyiz, Zhiyembet, Aktamberdy, Umbetey, Kaztugan, and Bukhar. Rhetorical word forms and statements have been analysed and their use in communication has been carried out. The scientific ideas of cultural memory have been developed to present a wide range of interpretations of the world in Zhyrau's poetry. The undertaken approach contributes to the understanding of the forms and ways of constructing cultural and national identity. By analysing the world picture in Zhyrau's poetry, it has been shown that the rhetorical ideal is built on the value ideas of the people about family, friendship and unity. The images of nature and the surrounding world explain the wide presence of antithesis, parallelism, and such units of rhetorical style as comparison, hyperbole, and epithets in the system of tropes. The presented experience contributes to the understanding of rhetorical identity and to the description of medieval Kazakh poetry in the aspect of identity.

Making, Living and Remaking the Myth: Plath and Her Mythical World of Poetry

Sylvia Plath is a very well-known figure in American and English literature. She is the back of modern literature and the face of postmodern literature, as her works reflect the characteristics of both ages. She is one of the four main members of the Confessional School of Poetry, and most of her works depict the theme of self-obsession. Her poetry is the poetry of “I”, but what makes her poetry different from others is her use of myth in her craft. As she was very fond of dying and death, she has used various myths related to death or can, say, in an altered way. She has done it so artfully that with her subtle usage of myth in her poetry, she has become a myth. The central theme of her poetry, as well as her myth, is, as it is obvious, death and rebirth. As a confessional poet, she has never been interested in the life and death of other people but in her own. Each anthology of hers, chiefly Colossus, and Ariel, discusses the very theme. Many of her poems depict her desperate desire to die. Lady Lazarus, Ariel, Fever 103, and The Manor Garden are chief among them. These poems also depict this theme of morbidity through the subtle use of mythology. In this paper, the researcher is willing to discuss the Sylvian myth in the poem, Lady Lazarus, along with the original myth.

The Image of the Horse in Kazakh Poetry

The horse was always highly important for Kazakh society, especially considering that Kazakhs have followed a nomadic lifestyle for thousands of years. This article discusses how the image and symbolism of the horse in Kazakh poetry have developed from the XIX century to the present, comparing it with the historical processes of this period. The influence of voluntary and involuntary changes, complex transformations, and tragedies in the cultural-historical and social-political life of the Kazakh nation in recent centuries on the depiction of the horse in poetry is assessed. To evaluate the change in symbolic values assigned to the horse in Kazakh poetry, this study employed the method of intertextual analysis and cultural-historical contextualization. In this article, the development path of the horse from a symbol of beauty and gallant, nobility and companionship to a metaphor of solid character and freedom is described and explained with fragments of Kazakh poetry.

By enhancing comprehension of the literary and cultural landscape of Central Asia, our findings contribute to the advancement of knowledge in these respective fields.

Bal-E-Jabreel's Taghzal: A Research And Critical Review

Allama Iqbal completely changed the body of Ghazal. Thanks to Iqbal, today Urdu Ghazal is reaching the extremes of development and all kinds of ideas are being expressed in it. Iqbal's ghazal is not a traditional ghazal. His beloved is the nation of Islam, humanity, the prophet and the person of Allah Almighty, Iqbal makes them beloved and speaks in such a way that a unique isolation is created in his ghazals. Allama was carrying the pain of the nation in his chest, so Bal Jibreel is also not free from this pain, but here all the ghazals and poems seem to be immersed in the pain of the nation. Allama has brought ghazal to its peak in Baal Jibreel and has grasped all kinds of colorful subjects in such a way that even in the precise and heavy problems of philosophy, he made them into ghazal by creating subtlety and elegance. And this is such a great artistic and intellectual achievement that not only Urdu poetry but the poetry of the whole world will continue to be proud of.

Григорій Сковорода та Лев Шестов: між наукою та поезією. До постановки проблеми

The aim of this paper is to reveal a typological kinship between two outstanding religious thinkers of different eras – Hryhorii Skovoroda and Lev Shestov, who are rarely addressed in conjunction with each other. Drawing on the scarce existing research on this rich, but heavily under-researched topic, we trace the inner connection between their respective philosophical worldviews, paying a special attention to the gnoseological (epistemological) aspect of their teachings. While staying within the framework of religious faith, fundamental for both thinkers, we scrutinize their relationship with reason, focusing on the attitude of both to the scientific method. At the same time, as a distinctive feature of our analysis, we apply a literary-centred approach rather than purely philosophical one, and draw on the optics of poets and writers, characterised by their own unique philosophical premonitions. As we argue, this is justified at various levels, including the closeness of both thinkers under study to the world of literature, especially poetry, which, arguably, had a profound impact on their philosophical discourse and helped to shape their ideas. Not aiming at providing a comprehensive comparative analysis of Skovoroda and Shestov, we nevertheless hope that this paper will pave the way for future studies, and demonstrate the productiveness of our method, shedding some new light not only on these two exceptional thinkers, but also on the intrinsic proximity between religious philosophy and the world of poetry more generally.
