It gives you a fresh perspective on life. Makes you rethink you way around language and sometimes it makes you smile. Is your new book as focused as the single word title might suggest? I almost believe that the universe is a cow!! It would have been much shorter, because the cow in India is everywhere. I would never have found the number of images or metaphors. I think it would be a much more mundane book. What was your favourite moment in India this time? One of my many favourite moments was when a young woman about 16 in a temple asked me if I wanted to see God. I had to say yes. Is there a poem about it? How did this visit change your writing? It changed my writing because I read a lot about Tamil Sangam poetry and that became part of the structure of Cow. Also because I had almost a year away from my day job, I had time to explore all sorts of different poetic approached. I wrote a poem a day for the year and just that kind of regularity of writing means that you get to try lots of things. Some of them made the collection, some will never!! How did the writing change you? How did it change me? I think it has given me more confidence as a poet. The editing experience has also been really good. I worked with Jordie Albiston and her responses made me work harder, and turned a few medium poems into good poems. Is there a particular Indian poet we should all be reading? Everyone should read Sangam poems from odd years ago. The body - and then the voice - is the best pen for aerial poetry. How does Australian poetry look from up there? I think Australian poetry is really healthy â lots of experimentation and some truly wonderful writing. Pity so few ever make it into international markets. What question do you wish people would ask? Oom â which is moo backwards. Page 1

2 Chapter 2 : Rhythm And Poetry (RAP) e-tinkerbell RHYTHMS is the first book of poetry published by Tugson Press and author/owner Leo Shelton, and the winner of the IPPY Award Gold - 1st Place for Poetry. He writes about the realistic rhythms of life, lust, love and loss. The Muses The Muses were the Greek goddesses of poetic inspiration, the adored deities of song, dance, and memory, on whose mercy the creativity, wisdom and insight of all artists and thinkers depended. They may have been originally three in number, but, according to Hesiod and the prevailing tradition he established, most commonly they are depicted as the nine daughters of Zeus and Mnemosyne. However, two ancient lyric poets, claim otherwise: Some later authors have even tried to reconcile the stories, proposing two different generations of Muses. Most commonly, it was thought that the Muses were born in Pieria at the foot of Mount Olympus, so they were often called either Olympian or Pierian Muses. Number, Names, Attributes, and Domains Depending on the region where they were celebrated, both the names and the number of Muses varied. There are various accounts of five, seven and even eight Muses. However, they are most often either three probably in earlier reports or nine following Hesiod and maybe Homer. Later poets, however, used the Hesiodic names as a foundation for further differentiation, so they distributed the Muses among diverse realms, attaching to each of them different attributes and powers. The order in which we presented the Muses here is not the order they are usually given in. However, we chose it for a reason: The Muses in Particular Myths Other than divine inspirers in the verses of the poets, the Muses appear rarely in myths ; and when they do, they are usually much less gentle revelers than diving avengers. Revelers Presided over by Apollo, the Muses spent much of their time on Olympus cheerfully singing and dancing at the feasts of the gods. Sometimes they also came down to earth, so as to either mourn a funeral like that of Achilles or celebrate a marriage like those of Peleus to Thetis and Cadmus to Harmonia. Avengers Protective of their status, the Muses were not above punishing anyone who dared to challenge their skill. Finally, the Macedonian king Pierus dared the Muses to a contest against his nine daughters, who, after their defeat, were transformed into prattling magpies. The Sons of the Muses Even though usually described as virgin goddesses, the Muses seemed like the perfect candidates for mothers of few mythical musicians and dancers. Consequently, Orpheus was often identified as the son of Calliope, as were sometimes the Sirens, who were more commonly linked to either Terpsichore or Melpomene. Linus, the great musician and orator of Thrace, was fathered by Apollo with either Calliope or Urania, and the Corybantes were usually described as sons of Thalia. In addition, Hyacinthus was thought of as the son of Clio, and Rhesus as the son of either Calliope or Euterpe. Page 2

3 Chapter 3 : Poetry - Wikipedia Poetry and music - a familiar combination in the form of Rhythm & Muse! Ten years on from our first event in Teddington - a special anniversary event in support of Miracles charity. In later mythology, the Muses were compared to the sirens. Both were female figures known for being singers of beautiful songs. The sirens were chthonic and sang to trap men and destroy them. All the arts were believed to come from the muses; including skills such as writing poems, interpreting the stars, and singing. It is appropriate that their mother was the goddess of memory. Dance was considered as an equally important art as poetry and songs, possibly because it could be used as a physical demonstration of past stories. She is still associated with dance today. This is reflected in the adjective terpsichorean which refers to things related to dance. The importance of Terpsichore and the other muses in Greek thought illustrates the importance of music in Greek culture. In ancient Greece, music was considered the mark of a civilized man. Music, however, was broader than just what is thought of as music today. Music also covered dance and poetry in addition to instrumental music and singing. These all together were considered to nourish the soul. Public Domain There is a discussion within classical studies as to whether the Muses were personifications. Although the Muses were closely associated with their artistic spheres, they also had an existence beyond it. Terpsichore, for example, was also a mother and a wife. In later mythology, she became the mother of several sirens including Parthenope by the river god Achelous. Because of this, they appear to have been more than mere abstract entities to the ancient Greeks. Today, Terpsichore is used often as a metaphor for, or personification of, dance. Terpsichore is also invoked in subjects beyond dance that have a sort of ordered movement or rhythm. Terpsichore, Muse of Choral Song and Dance. The planets orbit the sun and the sun, with other stars, orbits the center of the Milky Way galaxy. Additionally, the planets go through cycles called Milankovitch cycles in which their orbits around the sun adjust in very regular, periodic, or rhythmic, ways. Furthermore, electromagnetic and mechanical oscillations, such as a pendulum in a clock, are also very common in nature. If these regular, ordered patterns of movement in the universe could be thought of as a sort of natural dance, then these natural movements could be thought of as terpsichorean in a sense. It also can be seen in the observable universe. The nature of sediments can vary in a cyclic fashion, and these cycles can be displayed in the sedimentary record. Here, cycles can be observed in the coloration and resistance of different strata. Page 3

4 Chapter 4 : Rhyme & Rhythm Writing But poetry does not here simply translate or represent the rhythms of the state; poetic meter seems capable of organizing temporal experience in its own way in the moment of reading, just as political power does in the moment of royal succession, which means that the state and the poet are actually at work on one and the same projectâ the. The word museum also comes from the Greek Muses. The Nine Muses were: All the ancient writers appeal to the Muses at the beginning of their work. Homer asks the Muses both in the Iliad and Odyssey to help him tell the story in the most proper way, and until today the Muses are symbols of inspiration and artistic creation. In painting the Muses are usually presented as ethereal women with divine beauty, holding laurels and other items depending on their faculty. The result of their encounter was the Nine Muses, who were similar to everything. When they grew up they showed their tendency to the arts, taught by God Apollo himself. They were not interested in anything of the regular human everyday life and they wanted to dedicate their lives to the Arts. Apollo brought them to the big and beautiful Mount Elikonas, where the older Temple of Zeus used to be. Ever since, the Muses supported and encouraged creation, enhancing imagination and inspiration of the artists. Muses and Arts According to the Greek Mythology, two Muses invented theory and practice in learning, three Muses invented the musical vibrations in Lyre, four Muses invented the four known dialects in the language â Attica, Ionian, Aeolian and Dorian â and five muses the five human senses. Seven muses invented the seven chords of the lyre, the seven celestial zones, the seven planets and the seven vocals of the Greek Alphabet. Analytically the Nine Muses are: The Muse Clio discovered history and guitar. Clio was always represented with a clarion in the right arm and a book in the left hand. Muse Euterpe discovered several musical instruments, courses and dialectic. She was always depicted holding a flute, while many instruments were always around her. Muse Thalia was the protector of comedy; she discovered comedy, geometry, architectural science and agriculture. She was also protector of Symposiums. She was always depicted holding a theatrical â comedy mask. Opposite from Thalia, Muse Melpomene was the protector of Tragedy; she invented tragedy, rhetoric speech and Melos. She was depicted holding a tragedy mask and usually bearing a bat. Terpsichore was the protector of dance; she invented dances, the harp and education. She was depicted wearing laurels on her head, holding a harp and dancing. Muse Erato was the protector of Love and Love Poetry â as well as wedding. She was depicted holding a lyre and love arrows and bows. Muse Polymnia was the protector of the divine hymns and mimic art; she invented geometry and grammar. She was depicted looking up to the Sky, holding a lyre. Muse Ourania was the protector of the celestial objects and stars; she invented astronomy. She was always depicted bearing stars, a celestial sphere and a bow compass. Muse Calliope was the superior Muse. She was accompanying kings and princes in order to impose justice and serenity. She was the protector of heroic poems and rhetoric art. According to the myth, Homer asks from Calliope to inspire him while writing Iliad and Odyssey, and, thus, Calliope is depicted holding laurels in one hand and the two Homeric poems in the other hand. The Nine Muses have been inspiring artists since the antiquity and there countless paintings, drawings, designs, poems and statues dedicated to them. Today, the most famous depiction of the Muses in sculpture is in Greece, in Corfu; the Empress Sissi of Austria had their statues made for her, in order to ornament the garden of her retreat house in Corfu, the famous Achilleion.

Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything. Musical innovation is full of danger to the State, for when modes of music change, the laws of the State always change with them. That is why rhapsodes and aedi were held in higher estimation at those times. Aedi, in particular, were sacred figures, who were also considered prophets. They were traditionally portrayed as blind, like Homer, for instance. Their blindness allowed them to sharpen their sensitive skills so that they could get in touch directly with the gods through the eyes of the soul that inspired them. Homer invoked at the beginning of the Iliad. The Muse spoke through him. Aedi were part of the so-called face-to-face society. As he did not have a written text, he became a composer in turn. Oral transmission required the use of a clear and direct language, so there is a great use of similes and the language is characterized by a formulaic style, with many repetitions and the presence in large amount of names as surnames, as well as the so-called topos, that is, the sites where the narration takes place. However, these figure were not typical only of the Greeks, the powerful combination of musical rhythm and poetry was well-known in other societies. For instance the Bards formed, along with the Druids and the foreseers, the three priestly castes of the Celts. The Bards were considered the guardians of knowledge and were instructed to store all the traditions and myths of the people. In some regions they were distinguishable from the other two orders for a special cloak they wore. In medieval Ireland there were two distinct group of poets: They were also magicians, as Irish magic is intrinsically connected to poetry, and the satire of a gifted poet was a serious curse upon the one being satirised. However, it has also been argued that the distinction between filid pl. In a rank much beneath the scop, were the gleemen, who had no settled abode, but roamed about from place to place, earning what they could from their performances. Minstrels created their own tales, but they also memorized and embellished the works of others. We may say, therefore, that the core idea the poets sung in their poems, tales or ballads reflected the societies that produced it. Who are the closest depositaries of this tradition? Fine narrators, with a mastery in rhyming, use of similes, refrains etc. Somebody who can still beautifully re-create that magic narration made of Rhythm And Poetry. Well, the answer is: Page 5

6 Chapter 6 : RHYTHM AND MUSE von Susan Joyner-Stumpf (Hardcover) â Lulu DE The rhythms and rhymes of poetry are just so much easier to memorize than long passages of prose.
