In addition to the facsimile pages of Sylvia Plath s manuscript, this edition also includes in facsimile the complete working drafts of the title poem Ariel in order to offer a sense of Plath s creative process, as well as notes the author made for the BBC about some of the manuscript s poems, including Daddy and Lady Lazarus In her insightful foreword to this volume, Frieda Hughes, Sylvia Plath s daughter, explains the reasons for the differences between the previously published edition of Ariel as edited by her father, Ted Hughes, and her mother s original version published here. With this publication, Sylvia Plath s legacy and vision will be reevaluated in the light of her original working draft.

The volume embraces her experiments with the short story and pieces of non-fiction from the 1940s through to her more polished compositions of the fifties and early sixties, including fragments of fiction as well as her journalism and book reviews.

Knížka o postelích a dvě pohádky navrch - Sylvia Plathová

Sylvia Plathová (1932 - 1963), americká prozaička a básnířka, je známa českým čtenářům díky románu Pod skleněným zvonem (Argo, 1998) a sbírce Noční tance (Argo, 2002). Nyní Argo přichází se souborem tří kratších dětských příběhů, které potěší nejen děti, ale uchvátí i dospělé. Obdivovatele Plathové jistě překvapí nečekaná hravost a rozmarná potrhlost textů. Prozaický příběh Kuchyň paní Třešinkové napsala Plathová v roce 1958 pro dětský časopis, publikován byl ale poprvé až v roce 2001, tedy 38 let po autorčině dobrovolné smrti. Vypráví se v něm o kuchyňských přístrojích, jež jsou přesvědčeny, že dokážou lépe plnit úkoly svěřené jejich kolegům v kuchyni, a způsobí tím naprostý chaos. Ve veršované Knížce o postelích, poprvé vydané v roce 1976, sestavila Plathová úžasnou kolekci všemožných postelí s překvapivými, báječnými schopnostmi - dovedou kupříkladu cestovat pod vodou, plachtit vzduchem, spát pod sněhem, poskakovat či malovat. Třetí příběh o Tomášovi a jeho vytouženém hořčicově žlutém obleku pro všechny příležitosti má název Oblek, kterému nic nevadilo

Ariel - Sylvia Plathová

Druhá básnická sbírka Sylvie Plathové nazvaná Ariel, vydaná v roce 1965, tedy dva roky po autorčině smrti, patří k nejslavnějším angloamerickým básnickým knihám dvacátého století. K jejímu kultovnímu statusu samozřejmě nemalou měrou přispěl příběh obestírající její vydání: mladá, nadějná, půvabná básnířka, zmítaná od dětství úzkostmi a depresí, si po rozpadu svého manželství vzala život; texty z její pozůstalosti pak vydal její manžel a otec jejích dvou dětí, básník Ted Hughes - a ukázalo se, že Ariel je autorčino opus magnum… Výsadní postavení Sylvie Plathové v rámci moderní angloamerické literatury ovšem není způsobeno jen oním tragickým příběhem, nýbrž především nespornou silou její poezie: Plathová je básnířka nesmírně sensitivní, básnířka přetavující veškeré podněty zvenčí v zcela svébytný, bolestný výraz, který je přitom v básních reflektován, pozorován jaksi z odstupu, s drsnou a všeprostupující ironií. K věhlasu autorčiny poezie v českém kontextu pak bezesporu přispěly překlady Jana Zábrany, pro něhož Plathová představovala velké, uhrančivé téma. Překladu sbírky Ariel se věnoval bezmála dvacet let - a nad hotovým dílem si poznamenal: Žádná ženská mě v životě neutahala tak jako Sylvia Plathová (…) Do těch básní se nelze dostat paklíčem, spíš to chce rozrazit skořápku jako ořech - a pak začít pracovat se střepy (…) Budu rád, jestli tenhle překlad přežiju. Poněvadž je to spíš zápas, spíš rvačka, při které jeden škrtí druhého - spíš tohle než překlad.

The Journals of Sylvia Plath - Sylvia Plathová

The Journals of Sylvia Plath offers an intimate portrait of the author of the extraordinary poems for which Plath is so widely loved, but it is also characterized by a prose of vigorous immediacy which places it alongside The Bell Jar as a work of literature. These exact and complete transcriptions of the journals kept by Plath for the last twelve years of her life - covering her marriage to Ted Hughes and her struggle with depression - are a key source for the poems which make up her collections Ariel and The Colossus. Everything that passes before her eyes travels down from brain to pen with shattering clarity - 1950s New England, pre-co-ed Cambridge, pre-mass tourism Benidorm, where she and Hughes honeymooned, the birth of her son Nicholas in Devon in 1962. These and other passages are so graphic that you look up from the page surprised to find yourself back in the here and now . . . The struggle of self with self makes the Journals compelling and unique. John Carey, Sunday Times

The Journals of Sylvia Plath - Sylvia Plathová

The electrifying diaries that are essential reading for anyone moved and fascinated by the life and work of one of America s most acclaimed poets. Sylvia Plath began keeping a diary as a young child. By the time she was at Smith College, when this book begins, she had settled into a nearly daily routine with her journal, which was also a sourcebook for her writing. Plath once called her journal her “Sargasso,” her repository of imagination, “a litany of dreams, directives, and imperatives,” and in fact these pages contain the germs of most of her work. Plath’s ambitions as a writer were urgent and ultimately all-consuming, requiring of her a heat, a fantastic chaos, even a violence that burned straight through her. The intensity of this struggle is rendered in her journal with an unsparing clarity, revealing both the frequent desperation of her situation and the bravery with which she faced down her demons.

The Colossus - Sylvia Plathová

Originally published in 1960, The Colossus was the only volume of Sylvia Plath s poetry published before her death in 1963. Showing a scholarly dedication to the craft, the poems in this collection are brimming with originality and the startling imagery that would later confirm her status as one of the most important poets of the twentieth century. On every page, a poet is serving notice that she has earned her credentials and knows her trade. Seamus Heaney She steers clear of feminine charm, deliciousness, gentility, supersensitivity and the act of being a poetess. She simply writes good poetry. And she does so with a seriousness that demands only that she be judged equally seriously . . . There is an admirable no-nonsense air about this; the language is bare but vivid and precise, with a concentration that implies a good deal of disturbance with proportionately little fuss. A. Alvarez in the Observer

Crossing the Water - Sylvia Plathová

Readers will recognise some of her most celebrated poems - Childless Woman , Mirror , Insomniac - while discovering those still overlooked, including her radio play Three Women.These two extraordinary volumes find their place alongside The Colossus and Ariel in the oeuvre of a singular talent.

Pod skleněným zvonem - Sylvia Plathová

Jediný román kultovní americké básnířky Sylvie Plathové Pod skleněným zvonem vznikl v roce 1962 – údajně hektickým tempem – a vyšel pod pseudonymem Victoria Lucas v lednu 1963, pouhý měsíc před dobrovolnou smrtí autorky. Kniha se dnes počítá k americké klasice a bývá stavěna především do sousedství Salingerovy přelomové prózy „Kdo chytá v žitě“. Dospívající vypravěčka Esther vstupuje do „velkého světa“, který jí ale zůstává cizí a přiměje ji až k rozhodnutí odejít ze života, realizovaném v sérii nezdařilých pokusů. Jedinečnost románu tkví v tom, jak proti sobě – či spíše vedle sebe – staví život a smrt, konformitu a sebedestruktivitu, „zdravý rozum“ a údajnou choromyslnost. Knihu vydáváme ve vynikajícím překladu Tomáše Hrácha, pro nějž byla Sylvia Plathová doslova osudovou autorkou.

Sylvia Plath: Drawings - Sylvia Plathová

Sylvia Plath: Drawings is a portfolio of pen-and-ink illustrations created during the transformative period spent at Cambridge University, when Plath met and secretly married poet Ted Hughes, and traveled with him to Paris and Spain on their honeymoon, years before she wrote her seminal work, The Bell Jar. Throughout her life, Sylvia Plath cited art as her deepest source of inspiration. This collection sheds light on these key years in her life, capturing her exquisite observations of the world around her. It includes Plath’s drawings from England, France, Spain, and New England, featuring such subjects as Parisian rooftops, trees, and churches, as well as a portrait Ted Hughes. Sylvia Plath: Drawings includes letters and diary entries that add depth and context to the great poet’s work, as well as an illuminating introduction by her daughter, Frieda Hughes.

Deníky Sylvie Plathové - Sylvia Plathová

Výběr z deníků originální americké básnířky z let 1950–1962Sylvia Plathová (1932 Boston – 1963 Londýn) byla americká spisovatelka a básnířka, známá zejména díly, jako byl výjimečný román Pod skleněným zvonem, v němž mimo jiné zpracovává vlastní zkušenost s psychiatrickou léčbou, anebo dnes již kultovní básnická sbírka Ariel, kongeniálně přeložená v roce 1984 básníkem Janem Zábranou, která patří k nejslavnějším angloamerickým básnickým knihám 20. století.Její život ovlivnila brzká smrt otce, s níž se snažila celý život vypořádat. Sama přitom v průběhu let bojovala s depresí a vlastními stíny, které otiskla do uměleckého díla i osobních deníků. Výběr z nich nyní přinášíme v novém vydání. Nabízíme tak čtenářům příležitost vydat se na dobrodružnou a fascinující cestu do zákoutí autorčiny zranitelné a labilní osobnosti.Tyto zápisky, které si vedla až do smrti, vyjadřují její touhu po celistvosti života a umění a vystihují zmatky její citlivé duše. Snaží se v nich o maximálně upřímný pohled na sebe samu. Jejich stránky svědčí o střídání složitých období sebeničení a regenerace. Deníky připravil k vydání autorčin manžel, anglický básník Ted Hughes, s nímž měla Plathová velmi komplikovaný vztah. Ovlivnil také jejich finální podobu.Hlas, který k nám z těchto stránek promlouvá, je v těch nejlepších pasážích stejně opravdový a uhrančivý jako hlas Plathové-básnířky. Posmrtně obdržela Pulitzerovu cenu za celoživotní dílo.

Since her suicide in 1963 at the age of 30, Sylvia Plath has become a strange icon. This book addresses why this is the case and what this tells us about the way culture picks out important writers. The author argues that without a concept of fantasy we can understand neither Plath s work nor what she has come to represent. She proposes that no writer demonstrates more forcefully than Plath the importance of inner psychic life for the wider sexual and political world. By the author of Sexuality in the Field of Vision.

The Principle of Rapid Peering - Sylvia Legris

Self-seeding windis a wind of ever-replenishing breath.-from The Walk, or The Principle of Rapid Peering The title of Sylvia Legris melopoeic collection The Principle of Rapid Peering comes from a phrase the nineteenth-century ornithologist and field biologist Joseph Grinnell used to describe the feeding behaviour of certain birds. Rather than waiting passively for food to approach them, these birds live in a continuous mode of rapid peering . Legris explores this rich theme of active observation through a spray of poems that together form a kind of almanac or naturalist s notebook in verse. Here is where nature converges with words, as the poet walks through prairie habitats near her home in Saskatchewan, through lawless chronologies and mellifluous strophes of strobili and solstice. Moths appear frequently, as do birds and plants and larvae, all meticulously observed and documented with an oblique sense of the pandemic marking the seasons. Elements of weather, ornithology, entomology, and anatomy feed her condensed, inflective lines, making the heart bloom and the intellect dance.Features drawings by the poet.

Same Old Girl - Sylvia Patterson

#39;There #39;s no mistaking the writing of Sylvia Patterson #39; Sunday TimesHow does the big stuff in life truly change us? In late 2019, Sylvia Patterson was a celebrated pop journalist, still merrily writing about the musical greats. But with the diagnosis of a life-threatening disease, a global pandemic and the collapse of her industry, life was about to take a drastic turn. It was a misadventure that would teach her many things. The power of friendship, the shock of mortality and what happens when love is tested. How a walk in the park, a spontaneous dance and a TV hero can save your life. How your perspective can shift on everything, from work, family and music, to what truly makes you happy. And what really happens when your body, never mind your kitchen, falls apart. The follow-up to the Costa-shortlisted I #39;m Not with the Band, this is Sylvia #39;s unflinching, poignant and gallows-funny odyssey through the mid-life trials we all face, as she tries to answer the big question: would it all change her, or would she stay that same old girl?
