        Geoffrey Hill and the ends of poetry

        by Tom Docherty

        The idea of the end is an essential motivic force in the poetry of Geoffrey Hill (1932-2016). This book shows that Hill's poems are characteristically 'end-directed'. They tend towards consummations of all kinds: from the marriages of meanings in puns, or of words in repeating figures and rhymes, to syntactical and formal finalities. The recognition of failure to reach such ends provides its own impetus to Hill's poetry. This is the first book on Hill to take account of his last works. It is a significant contribution to the study of Hill's poems, offering a new thematic reading of his entire body of work. By using Hill's work as an example, the book also touches on questions of poetry's ultimate value: what are its ends and where does it wish to end up?

Zunächst sind ihre Klassenkameradinnen Miranda, Lin und Tamtam alles andere als begeistert von dieser Idee. Sie haben eigentlich besseres zu tun als Lulu beim Backen zu helfen! Doch sie wären nicht beste Freundinnen, wenn sie einander nicht in jeder Lebenslage helfen würden! Deshalb machen sich die vier Mädchen auch direkt ans Werk.

Und die zuckerbäcker-beste-Freundinnen Lulu, Miranda, Lin und Tamtam müssen auch gleich ihren ersten spannenden Fall lösen … Miranda möchte eigentlich gar kein Ballett tanzen, aber ihre Mutter steckt sie trotzdem in die Ballettschule, denn das sei so „gut für die Haltung“. Dort ist auch die neidische Ines, die alles daran setzt, den Muffin-Club zu entzweien und dafür sorgt, dass die Freundschaft der viel Muffin-Mädchen auf eine harte Probe gestellt wird … Der Sammelband enthält die Bände „Der Muffin-Club (1). Die süßeste Bande der Welt“ und „Der Muffin-Club (2). Vier Freundinnen wirbeln los!“.

        Der scharlachrote Buchstabe

        Roman

        by Nathaniel Hawthorne, Barbara Cramer-Nauhaus, Hans Weyhe, Alexander Thiele

        Der scharlachrote Buchstabe ist Hawthornes erster und berühmtester Roman. Ergebnis einer langen Auseinandersetzung mit der Welt seiner puritanischen Vorfahren, ist er zugleich der klassische amerikanische Ehebruchroman. Ehebruch wird in der puritanischen Gesellschaft der Siedlerzeit nach starren Moralvorstellungen geahndet: So muß die Ehebrecherin Hester Prynne nach Verbüßung einer Gefängnisstrafe drei Stunden am Pranger stehen. Zudem ist sie dazu verurteilt, für den Rest ihres Lebens das Mal der vermeintlichen Schande – den scharlachroten Buchstaben A (für adulteress: Ehebrecherin) – auf der Brust zu tragen. überzeugt von der Würde ihrer Liebe, weigert sie sich, den Namen von Pearls Vater preiszugeben: Arthur Dimmesdale, Pfarrer der Gemeinde. Dimmesdale, schwächer und abhängiger vom Denken der Gesellschaft als Hester, wagt es nicht, sich zu seiner Schuld zu bekennen. Besessen von Rachegedanken, versucht ihn Hesters Ehemann, unter dem falschen Namen Chillingworth, zu einem Geständnis zu drängen.Mit seinen dramatischen Szenen und Konstellationen, den Reflexionen zu Schuld und Sühne sowie der melodramatischen Zuspitzung des Geschehens ist Der scharlachrote Buchstabe nicht nur ein Klassiker der amerikanischen Literatur, sondern auch eine überaus spannende Lektüre.
