More Than Any Thing Or Any One, Baylie E. Rice
More Than Any Thing Or Any One, Baylie E. Rice
Landshark Literary Review
These sister poems "more than any thing" and "more than any one" were written as an exploration of how we tend to romanticize people we are involved with romantically. After they break our hearts or hurt us in some way, we begin to see them as they truly are, for better or worse. "more than any thing" is the process of viewing someone through rose colored glasses, while "more than any one" is looking back on the relationship and wishing you had spent more time learning to love yourself.

Landshark Literary Review
The poems of this selection delve into the complexities of familial relationships as well as the internal battles of insecurities brought on by the complications of a lack of harmony and love primarily displayed in families. Other poems in this selection describe the love between two people and the physical and emotional effects of yearning and their human connections.
Countering Social Encounters: Darwish’S “Speech Of The Red Indian”, J. Kristen Urban
Countering Social Encounters: Darwish’S “Speech Of The Red Indian”, J. Kristen Urban
The Journal of Social Encounters
In June 2025 the Washington D.C. Arab Center held a conference at the National Press Club titled, “A Historic Juncture: Israel’s Destruction of Gaza and the Palestinian Future.” The discussion sparked an incisive question: Would such a future follow a Palestinian-owned trajectory? Incisive, because Palestinians have not owned their trajectory since the 1915 Sykes-Picot Agreement, have consistently been defined in negative terms, and have lived with the ambiguity of existing while remaining unrecognized. Growing up within Israel, Palestine’s national poet, Mahmoud Darwish (1941-2008), experienced this paradox firsthand, and explored it directly in “Speech of the Red Indian,” a poem written …

Fana’ (Annihilation), Houyar Moghaddas
Fana’ (Annihilation), Houyar Moghaddas
HCA Healthcare Journal of Medicine
In Sufism, fana’ refers to the dissolution of the self, the annihilation of the ego as one transcends individuality. While traditionally a spiritual concept, fana’ also offers a powerful humanistic metaphor for psychological transformation. In both the poem and accompanying photograph, fana’ explores the themes of ego death, grief, and the reshaping of identity: processes central to psychiatric practice, psychedelic therapy and the treatment of emotional fragmentation. The photograph captures an individual standing at the edge of a path, facing an untamed landscape, symbolizing the confrontation with the unknown self and the internal experience of surrender. This work invites reflection …
Conspicuous Technique: Black Avant-Garde Poetry And The Politics Of Aesthetics, Ryan Gato
Conspicuous Technique: Black Avant-Garde Poetry And The Politics Of Aesthetics, Ryan Gato
Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects
This study is comprised of two essays on the politics of aesthetics in postwar American black experimental poetry. Within the domain of contemporary poetry scholarship, this study serves three distinct yet interrelated purposes: 1.) to intervene within ongoing debates about the relation—or purported lack thereof—between black artistic practices and those of the historic and American avant-gardes by emphasizing the politics of aesthetics; 2.) to offer a critique of the usage of the discourses of postmodernism and of black aesthetics in the field by elucidating the historicity of their conceptual frameworks; and 3.) to provide an alternative to contemporary scholarship’s narrow …
A Work On/Of Language: Lyric And The Care Of The Self, Evan M. Knight
A Work On/Of Language: Lyric And The Care Of The Self, Evan M. Knight
Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects
Drawing on Michel Foucault’s work on the Ancient Greek practice of the care of the self, this dissertation argues that lyric poetry is a technology of the self: an ethical practice that creates potential for self-transformation through the demands it places on language and modes of attention. Lyric thus maintains a form of truth discourse overshadowed by the Cartesian conception of truth as propositional and method-driven. Unlike contemporary self-care, the care of the self, as the original Greek epimeleia heautou entails, is care inflected by concern and anxiety: the practicing subject places her thoughts, assumptions, ways of being, and—in the …
Cecil Taylor, 1950–1976: Theory & Practice In His Own Words, Michelle A. Yom
Cecil Taylor, 1950–1976: Theory & Practice In His Own Words, Michelle A. Yom
Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects
Cecil Taylor (1929–2018) was a poet, composer, pianist, and dancer who is widely regarded as one of the founding figures of Free Jazz. Despite this historical significance, Taylor has not been a subject of substantial archival research. Some scholars have written his name into music scholarship through explicitly or implicitly reiterating the notion of “freedom” that circulated among contemporary jazz critics of the late 1950s and the 1960s. Others have focused on analyzing Taylor’s solo piano music, often reducing Taylor’s musical theories and practices into the formal structures of the music itself. To date, the scholarship has simplified Taylor’s work …
Yet No Ramanujan, Db Jonas
Yet No Ramanujan, Db Jonas
Journal of Humanistic Mathematics
The poem Yet No Ramanujan conveys the musings of a layman in his garden, obsessed by the way that mundane things, the small experiences of everyday life, suggest the ways in which, as Baudelaire says, "everything is number." This meditation ends with the recognition that the putative stability of a self, a thinking subject, is after all, however complex and unique, like all matter, a kind of oscillation, a complex product of number.
Breath Back, Bronte Alston
Breath Back, Bronte Alston
Research outputs 2022 to 2026
Breath Back is a collection of poems written throughout the first 18 months of a doctoral study based in the petro-state of Western Australia. As a Wadjela (non-Indigenous) climate justice activist-researcher, Alston adopts poetic autoethnography as an embodied, intuitive praxis to critically and reflexively examine limitations, positionality, power, privilege, and voice throughout their research process. This collection is deeply intertwined with Alston’s deepening connection to Country, specifically through the seasonal cycles of Wardandi Noongar Boodja (Country) in south-west Western Australia.

Beyond Black And White: Embracing Every Hue Through Words, Stories, And Unapologetic Truths, Darius M. Phelps
New Jersey English Journal
Literacy shapes how students interpret and engage with the world, yet traditional education often compartmentalizes it. This article explores racial literacy and poetry as transformative, interdisciplinary tools for critical inquiry and identity formation. Grounded in scholarship and practical strategies, it calls for reimagining literacy instruction as empowerment across disciplines and lived experiences.
Life, Death And The Aftermath, Charlotte E. Smith
Life, Death And The Aftermath, Charlotte E. Smith
Masters Theses
This research analyzes McClocklin and Lengelle's 'Cures for the Heart': A Poetic Approach to Healing After Loss." It finds that poetry therapy may offer a healthy outlet for processing grief. Further research supports the therapeutic benefits in writing and reading poetry as a way to cope, find meaning, and make sense of it all, after the loss occurs. My thesis is a collection of 49 poems, in which I chronicle the life of my adult son, Justin, who struggled with an opioid addiction and passed away due to an overdose in the Spring of 2025. My work was inspired by …
A Tiny Battle: Conflict, Structure, And Satire In "The Rape Of The Lock", Helen R. Ball
A Tiny Battle: Conflict, Structure, And Satire In "The Rape Of The Lock", Helen R. Ball
The Confluence
Writing in London during the eighteenth-century, the poet Alexander Pope earned an enduring reputation in literary canon as a master of satire. His well-loved poem The Rape of the Lock exemplifies his biting wit and characteristically satirical heroic rhyme couplets. In my article, I use a formalist literary approach to examine Pope's stylistic, literary, and rhetorical strategies throughout the climactic third canto of the poem. Performing a close reading, this essay analyzes the intricacies of the poem through its use of diction, rhyme, and dramatic subject matter, ultimately arguing that Pope achieves a complex balance of satirizing and sympathizing with …

O Esqueleto De Um Romance, Lanna Leite
O Esqueleto De Um Romance, Lanna Leite
Theses and Dissertations
In O Esqueleto de um Romance: The Film (2025), a Berlin legal dispute between a mayor and evangelicals sparks filmmaker Lanna Leite’s reflection on faith, memory, and belief. Using archival, 16mm, and 8mm footage, the experimental film frames filmmaking as an ephemeral, performative practice resisting closure and conventional narrative finality.
