Born In 1951 In Mexico City Coral Bracho has published more than a dozen volumes of poetry including her magnificent El ser que va a morir 1981 which changed the course of Mexican poetry.<p>The prominent Mexican poet David Huerta writes "The secret of Coral Bracho's poetry its prodigious originality can be traced to its tendency to surge like a living voice a silky impetuous torrent." Her biography at the Poetry Foundation website observes "Bracho's impact on Mexican poetry has been compared to poet John Ashbery's influence on American verse. Bracho's layered long-lined poems attend equally to sound patterns and lush unspooling imagery." Fellow poet Forrest Gander has said "Her diction spills out along ceaselessly shifting beds of sound. . . . Bracho's early poems make sense first as music and music propels them."<p>Bracho's poetry has appeared in dozens of anthologies of the genre. And further recognizing her achievements as a poet are her Aguacalientes National Poetry Prize and a Guggenheim Fellowship. Cuadernos del Armadillo [en el Tallero Martín Pescador] unknown

New/New. <p><strong>Author:</strong> Coral Ann Howells</p><p><strong>Publisher:</strong> Brill</p><p><strong>ISBN:</strong> 9789042016231</p><p><strong>Release Date:</strong> 2004</p><p><strong>Languages:</strong> English</p><p><strong>Binding:</strong> Hardcover</p><p><strong>Number Of Pages:</strong> 289</p><p><strong>Details:</strong> This collection of essays focuses on Canadian history and its legacies as represented in novels and films in English and French produced in Canada mainly in the 1980s and 1990s. The approach is both cross-cultural and interdisciplinary aiming at articulating Canadian differences through a comparison of anglophone and francophone cultures illustrated by works treating some of the different groups which make up Canadian society – English-Canadian Québecois Acadian Native and ethnic minorities. The emphasis is on the problematic representation of Canadianness which is closely bound up with constructions of history and its legacies – dispossession criminality nomadism Gothicism the Maritime. The English/French language difference is emblematic of Canadian difference; the two-part arrangement with one section on Literature and the other on Film sets up the pattern of relationships between the two forms of cultural representation that these essays explore. Essays in the Literature section are on single texts by such writers as: Margaret Atwood Tomson Highway Ann-Marie MacDonald Anne Michaels and Alice Munro; Gabrielle Roy Anne Hébert Antonine Maillet Bernard Assiniwi and Régine Robin. The Film section with its mirror structure both supplements and amplifies this dialogue extending notions of Canadianness with its emphasis on voices from Quebec and Acadia traditionally ‘othered’ in Canadian history. Filmmakers treated include: Phillip Borsos Atom Egoyan Ted Kotcheff Mort Ransen and Vincent Ward; Denys Arcand Gilles Carle Alanis Obomsawin Léa Pool and Jacques Savoie.
