Añadir al carritoPaperback. Condición: New. By one of Greece's foremost contemporary poets, Cicada is Phoebe Giannisi's second collection in English. The cicada signifies metamorphosis in this breathtaking, lyrical book, which evokes the spirits of Archilochus, Plato, Empedocles, and Heraclitus. As the translator Brian Sneeden remarks: "The 'I' in Giannisi's poetry is never static, never a fixed point, but part of a process of rebodying the ambient." Yet, despite the fluid, mythic nature of Giannisi's poems, they are also exquisitely rooted in the everyday: the sea heard through a window, the murmur of a distant mechanical crane, a damp wind, a photo of John and Yoko. Giannisi is a poet internationally known for her idiosyncratic eco-poetics, as well as her poetic multimedia works and performances, and most of all for her brilliant vision glowing at the borders of language, voice, place, and memory.

Añadir al carritoPaperback. Condición: New. In her third collection in English, Phoebe Giannisi lays out her vision for a chimeric poetics that blends field recordings, state archives and ancient texts. The centre of Chimera engages with a three-year field research project on the goat-herding practices of the Vlachs, a nomadic people of Northern Greece and the Southern Balkans, who speak their own language. In these poems, day-to-day activities such as shearing and shepherding mix with snippets of conversations, oral tradition and song-locating a larger story in this ancient marriage between humans and animals. Through her poetry and fieldwork, this mytho-historical connection between metamorphosis and utterance takes form in what the Greek newspaper Kathimerini calls "a bold achievement.a studio wherein poems and other texts, other voices, become exhibited.".

Añadir al carritoPaperback. Condición: New. The ancient Greek word for tragedy (????????) is a compound of goat (??????) and song (???). In Phoebe Giannisi's Goatsong, the seam that connects human and animal, myths and history, is the body.In Giannisi's language, life obeys myth. A man places a screaming cicada in his mouth, reminding us of a scene from Plato's Phaedrus, where Socrates claims cicadas to have been humans who became entranced by the invention of singing, and didn't stop to eat or drink. When the goddess Thetis dips her newborn son, Achilles, into the River Styx to protect all but his famous heel where her hand grips, we're told 'the place of the mother's grip / is the mark of death.' Adjacent to the mythical setting is the material, where the rumination of goats, their digestive cycle - chewing, swallowing, then recalling food back into the mouth to be reconsidered - begins after weaning, and is lain alongside how we think: 'from the moment of separation / from the mother / they ruminate.' In these lyric enactments, all is transformative and transformed; territories of land, the body and history are blurred, and nothing is still.From Homer to Donna Haraway, Derrida to state archives, klephtic ballads and rebetiko, to Parmenides and Giannisi's dog, Ivan, the many human and animal voices of Goatsong form an incantatory lyricism and layered engagement unique in literature.
