{"product_id":"radical-elegies-eleanor-perry-9781350236066","title":"Radical Elegies: White Violence, Patriarchy, and Necropoetics","description":"Why is the poetic mode of elegy so often understood as the domain of white, wealthy male poets? What possibilities and limitations exist for rethinking the ways in which we construct an elegiac tradition? Through close examination of the rigid hierarchies and binaries that pervade the elegiac canon as it is traditionally understood, this book explores these possibilities in order to examine whose work tends to be excluded from the discourse and why. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough in-depth close readings of elegies by Black women, trans* women, and non-binary writers, this book foregrounds forms of poetic knowledge and poetic practices that trouble - or work against - the ideals, values, standards and forms of knowledge embodied by the 'English' elegy so often privileged within canonical tradition. In doing so, it offers a challenge to the ways in which we currently read elegy, unearthing possibilities for revising our understanding of the elegiac tradition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eleanor Perry\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350236063\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350236066\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/19\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.04lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.50d","brand":"Eleanor Perry","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44075588813055,"sku":"9781350236066","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_70f05a2b-d21c-46bd-977b-4901764fe4d3.jpg?v=1685460316","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/radical-elegies-eleanor-perry-9781350236066","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
