The Iliad of Homer is the earliest work of European literature that we have. Created in the eighth century BC it has continued to arouse interest for over 2000 years. The author intended it to be heard, as delivered by a bard or rhapsode who had made the presentation of Greek epic poetry his profession, and who had command of the vocal resources and the dramatic power to move his audience.

Molière wrote some of the most durable and penetrating comedies of all time. The Imaginary Cuckold and The School for Husbands are two of his grand farces of marriage and misunderstanding, one set in Paris and the other in the provinces. In The School for Husbands, a tyrannical husband-to-be seeks to isolate his ward, while unwittingly carrying her messages of devotion to her lover. In The Imaginary Cuckold, an enraged husband imagines his wife is unfaithful, but is reluctant to defend his honor.

In these poems, the joys and struggles of the everyday are played against the grinding politics of being human. Beginning in a hotel room in the dark of a distant city, we travel through history and follow the memory of the Trail of Tears from the bend in the Tallapoosa River to a place near the Arkansas River. Stomp dance songs, blues, and jazz ballads echo throughout. Lost ancestors are recalled. Resilient songs are born, even as they grieve the loss of their country. Joy Harjo is at the top of her form in Conflict Resolution for Holy Beings.

The Homecoming of Beorhtnoth Beorhthelm’s Son was originally published in the 1953 edition of Essays and Studies. In December of that year, J.R.R. Tolkien took possession of a reel-to-reel tape recorder and, some time during the first few months of 1954, decided to record ‘the whole thing on tape’ as a way of ‘testing’ the performative quality of the dramatic dialogue between Tídwald and Torhthelm.

"Le poète est semblable au prince des nuées / Qui hante la tempête et se rit de l'archer ; / Exilé sur le sol au milieu des huées, / Ses ailes de géant l'empêchent de marcher." (L'Albatros)

"Ich ging sogleich, die Stadt zu besehn, / Ich reise gern mit Nutzen." (aus "Ein Wintermärchen") Heinrich Heine war zeitlebens ein unruhiger Geist und häufig auf Reisen. Aus Reiseberichten, Zeitungsartikeln und Feuilletons schuf er künstlerische Kleinode wie "Die Harzreise" oder seine polemischen Reisebilder "Italien". Berührendstes Zeugnis seines poetischen Schaffens aber ist "Deutschland. Ein Wintermärchen", angeregt durch eine Reise in sein Heimatland nach 13 Jahren im Pariser Exil.

One of the great masterpieces of Western literature, The Odyssey chronicles the many trials and adventures Odysseus must pass through on his long journey home from the Trojan wars.

Much-Afraid begins her journey, crippled and disfigured, with the cry, "Oh, if only I could escape from this Valley of Humiliation altogether and go to the High Places."

Hvad er det ved Sapfo, som altid fortryller? Sapfo, som levede omkring 630 f.v.t. og var så stor en digter, at hun bliver kaldt den tiende muse. Sapfo, som sang om kærlighed, ikke krig. Sapfo, som sang om Afrodite, ritualer, erotik. Sapfo fra Lesbos, heraf ordet lesbisk. Gåden Sapfo. Sapfos store værk er kun overleveret i form af brudstykker gennem andres citater og på itureven papyrus fundet på lossepladser og i krokodillemumier. Så meget er gået tabt, så meget er for længst forsvundet. Stoffet er helt bogstaveligt i stumper og stykker. Og alligevel føles Sapfo helt tæt på her og nu.

Silas House is known throughout the South as a quintessential person of letters—a novelist, music journalist, environmental activist, columnist, and the former Poet Laureate of Kentucky. His first full-length collection of poetry blends his Appalachian upbringing with his ongoing relation to the natural world. Poems of praise for community and the collective appear alongside others tinged with nostalgia and grief when House keenly observes the loss of rural America as he once knew it.

En cada palabra que escribo, dejo un pedazo de lo que siento. Hay ausencias que solo encuentran su voz en el papel, recuerdos que se convierten en versos cuando el corazón calla. Y en cada línea, un eco de amor, de nostalgia y de un adiós que nunca se olvida. Perder a alguien cambia muchas cosas. No siempre de golpe. A veces solo te das cuenta de que ya no eres el mismo de antes. Este espacio es para quienes atraviesan ese momento. Para quienes siguen adelante mientras por dentro algo duele. Para que quien lo lea sepa que no está solo en ese dolor.
