TEN IN THE MORNING presents an evocative grouping of reader responses. This tandem collection presents Willian Corbett's poems as a response to American artist Gerald Coble's collage, which, itself, comprises responses to writings by Proust, Whitman, Melville, Dickinson, and Thoreau, and to the actress Ava Gardner.

Perhaps, they sit so far above us that it is easy to forget that those of us who love their work have a personal relationship to it. "Coble's response is of such an individual character-long white gloves and a white thorn branch for Dickinson -that viewers will be spurred to remember their first and ongoing encounters with these generative writers"-William C

Picturing Cultural Values in Postmodern America

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Doty, William G. / Doty W., William C., PUBLISHER: University Alabama Press, This challenging interdisciplinary collection of essays sets out to find cultural significance and value in America's post modern society. The book includes analyses of a wide range of contemporary cultural artifacts--poetry, novels, myths, painting, cinematic images--from different vantage points, but especially from the perspective of those working in the area of religion and culture. While the contributors recognize that there are no simple solutions for identifying satisfactory values in today's society, they all emphasize the close kinship between ethics and aesthetics in their interpretations. Imagery of many sorts comes up for a closer look: the imagery of the anti-abortion movement, heroic and mythic figures, rituals, politics, gender issues, and race relations. Giving voice to "difference" and "the other," the essays provide a lively discussion about where our common future is headed and how we can remain responsible to values that are beneficial to the largest number of people.
