- W581330185 abstract "Prior praise for Martin Espada: Political poetry at its finestwith his soaring lyrics, Espada broadens our appreciation not only of poetry but of resistance itself.---The Progressive(Espada) writes beautiful poems about terrible realities.---San Francisco ChronicleA volume in Poets on Poetry series, which collects critical works by contemporary poets, gathering together articles, interviews, and book reviews by which they have articulated poetics of a new generation.This collection of essays on poetry and politics comes from man New York Times predicted would become the Latino poet of his generation and whom Sandra Cisneros called the Pablo Neruda of North American authors.Martin Espada defends what Walt Whitman called, the rights of them others are down upon. He invokes spirit of poet-advocates such as Whitman and Edgar Lee Masters to explore his own history as a poet and tenant lawyer in Boston's Latino community. He celebrates poets of Puerto Rico, imprisoned for espousing cause of independence, and poets of Bronx, writing bilingual poems in voices of dead.Espada writes of forgotten places and reminds us of poet's responsibility to remember, as Pablo Neruda remembers anonymous builders of Machu Picchu or Sterling Brown remembers slave uprising of Nat Turner. He argues that poets should embrace role of Shelley's unacknowledged legislator in their work as writers and in their lives as citizens. He challenges conventional wisdom that poetry and politics are mutually exclusive, and rejects poetics of self-marginalization, in keeping with Adrian Mitchell's dictum that, people ignore most poetry because most poetry ignores most people.Martin Espada has published seventeen books as a poet, editor, and translator. The Republic of Poetry, a collection of poems, received a Paterson Award for Sustained Literary Achievement and was a finalist for Pulitzer Prize. Imagine Angels of Bread won an American Book Award and was a finalist for National Book Critics Circle Award. He has received numerous fellowships and awards, including a Guggenheim Fellowship and National Hispanic Cultural Center Literary Award. Espada is a Professor of English at University of Massachusetts-Amherst." @default.
