John Keats and the Culture of Dissent
by Nicholas Roe

The Persistence of Poetry
by
If, as George Gissing once wrote, "to like Keats is a test of fitness for understanding poetry", then the essays collected in this volume suggest that literary criticism remains a lively and vigorous endeavor. Written by a broad range of prominent scholars -- senior Romanticists as well as younger critics and major poets -- the essays offer a fresh reevaluation of the nature and importance of John Keats's achievement. The idealistic aesthete or humanistic hero admired by earlier generations of readers develops into a much richer, more complex image of the poet. The product of a continuing critical dialogue, this new Keats attests not only to his own enduring appeal but to the persistent vitality of poetry itself amid the distractions of a fragmented postmodern culture. An introduction by Robert M. Ryan reviews the history of Keats scholarship, situating new critical assessments by M. H. Abrams, Walter Jackson Bate, Eavan Boland, David Bromwich, Hermione de Almeida, Terence Alan Hoagwood, Elizabeth Jones, Debbie Lee, Philip Levine, Donald H- Reiman, Ronald A. Sharp, George Steiner, Jack Stillinger, Aileen Ward, and Susan Wolfson.

Family Business
by Allen Ginsberg
A collection of letters, written between 1944 and 1976, charts the relationship between a father and son, capturing Allen Ginsberg's evolution from a precocious, rebellious student into an icon of avant-garde poetry and detailing the moments that shaped Allen's art--his obsessions, love affair, travels, and experiments with LSD.

Rumi
by Franklin Lewis
Not so much a biography as a definitive guide, this authoritative book marks an exciting new benchmark in the field of Rumi studies. Exploring everything from his religious background to internet websites dedicated to him, this is an indispensable manual for anyone interested in the life, poetry and teachings of Jalāl al-Din Rumi. The writer has drawn exhaustively on a huge array of sources to present a scholarly but thoroughly accessible work that will be enjoyed as much by non-specialist and general readers as it will by scholars and students.
