The Domesticity of Giraffes, Judith Beveridge's first book, was one of the most widely read poetry volumes of the 1990s. First published in 1987 by Black Lightning Press, it won the Dame Mary Gilmore Award, the New South Wales Premier's Poetry Prize, and the Victorian Premier's Poetry Prize; remarkable accolades for a debut collection. Poems from this book were popular on high school curricula for many years, and some are still used in schools. Judith's subsequent books include Accidental Grace (UQP, 1996) and Wolf Notes (Giramondo, 2003), which have between them garnered the Judith Wright Calanthe Award for Poetry and a second Victorian Premier's Award. Judith has also received the Philip Hodgins Award for excellence in literature (2005).

The combination of clarity and dramatic force,involving a supple use of language which registers the ebb and flow of feeling,makes her poetry immediately appealing and accessible. As she notes in herintroduction to this collection, 'My writing can be kaleidoscopic, oftenbaroque, but I hope also grounded and focused...I am drawn to poetry that hasrich texture, and by this, I mean poetry that is distinctly metaphorical,detailed, musically complex, but also clear.'

The years from 1965 to the 1990s are revealed as a time of growing vigour and diversity.

Download Refashioning Myth Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Robert Graves tells us that “the poet’s first enrichment is a knowledge and understanding of myths.” Certainly, as this collection of essays, poems and visual images affirms, mythology has been a field richly mined by poets and artists from antiquity through to the present day. It is testament to both the enduring power of myth, as well as the adaptability of its form, that poets and writers continually turn to the mythic for both inspiration and guidance. This volume presents a diverse collection of analytical and creative works by scholars, poets and visual artists, in response to their varied explorations of the prolific dialogue that exists between myth and poetry.

Download Literature and the Politics of Post-Victorian Decadence Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
In Literature and the Politics of Post-Victorian Decadence, Kristin Mahoney argues that the early twentieth century was a period in which the specters of the fin de siècle exercised a remarkable draw on the modern cultural imagination and troubled emergent avant-gardistes. These authors and artists refused to assimilate to the aesthetic and political ethos of the era, representing themselves instead as time travelers from the previous century for whom twentieth-century modernity was both baffling and disappointing. However, they did not turn entirely from the modern moment, but rather relied on decadent strategies to participate in conversations concerning the most highly-vexed issues of the period including war, the rise of the Labour Party, the question of women's sexual freedom, and changing conceptions of sexual and gender identities.
