| Zusammenfassung: | Philip Resnick's Footsteps of the Past constitutes a powerful set of reflections on the modern human condition. The book contains poems dealing with memory, recognition, and the slow passage of time, while others meditate on the deep wounds that chronic illness and disability instill. Some of the poems have a critical political edge, while others probe the cultural and philosophical underpinnings of our modern identities with cool detachment and unrelenting honesty. For inspiration, Resnick draws on Sophocles, Thucydides, Montesquieu, and, from our own day, Thomas Piketty and Charles Taylor. There is also a shout-out to "Je suis Charlie." Always in these poems one senses a longing for a previous, perhaps mythical, time when the future opened the possibility of a world of ideals. For the reader, this book will resonate in quite unpredictable ways, much like the ferry of the mind whose voyage the author invokes. Bare-knuckled imagery, intellectual inquisitiveness, and a kaleidoscope of themes mark Footsteps of the Past as a strikingly original poetry collection |

Philip Resnick's Footsteps of the Past constitutes a powerful set of reflections on the modern human condition. The book contains poems dealing with memory, recognition, and the slow passage of time, while others meditate on the deep wounds that chronic illness and disability instill. Some of the poems have a critical political edge, while others probe the cultural and philosophical underpinnings of our modern identities with cool detachment and unrelenting honesty. For inspiration, Resnick draws on Sophocles, Thucydides, Montesquieu, and, from our own day, Thomas Piketty and Charles Taylor. There is also a shout-out to "Je suis Charlie." Always in these poems one senses a longing for a previous, perhaps mythical, time when the future opened the possibility of a world of ideals. For the reader, this book will resonate in quite unpredictable ways, much like the ferry of the mind whose voyage the author invokes. Bare-knuckled imagery, intellectual inquisitiveness, and a kaleidoscope of themes mark Footsteps of the Past as a strikingly original poetry collection Cover; Copyright; ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS; CONTENTS; I -- AT HOME; West Coast Mythistorema; Arbutus Trees; Siwash Rock; Vancouver; West Coast Muse; Utopia; After Clio; Coast Modern; Coal Harbour Philosophy; Wine Country; We Lucky Ones; Robson Square; Riot; The Suicide; Gatineau Park; Otto Dix Exhibit; De la Savane Cemetery; II -- ABROAD; Paris on a Sunday Afternoon; Musée Zadkine; Basilique St. Denis; Two Cultures; Canal St. Martin; In the Staatsbibliothek; Head of an Archaic Horse; Residencia de Estudiantes; Aragon; Barri Gòtic; Cuarentena; Parc Güell; Santiago de Compostela Museo Chileno de Arte PrecolombinoInvocation; Santorini; Farewell to Damouchari; III -- INFIRMITY; July, 2010; Mid-September; Early Snow; All that Is Left Is the Anger; Chronic Illness; Hospital Cafeteria; Disability; Old Couple; Leave-taking; Once; Corner Bench; Fado; IV -- POLITICAL CURRENTS; Canadian Tory; At Kingsmere; The Crown in Canada; Jack Layton; Donbass; Thucydides; August, 2014; Stormy Times; In the Provinces; The Genealogy of Morals; Reprise; '68 Dreams; Je suis Charlie; V -- SARASTRO'S REALM; From the Other Shore; For Borges; The Hall of Uselessness; Words; Flashback The World We Have LostSeptember 1; The Ferry; Heraclitus' River; Memento mori; Erbarme dich, mein Gott; The Shadow Line; The Mysteries; Cavafian Reflections; Publish or Perish; Sociologists; Montesquieu; Charles Taylor; Hannah Arendt; On Reading Thomas Piketty; A Troubled Century; A Sickness beyond Death; Threnody; Sic passit; Lightning; Sophocles; Women of Trachis; ABOUT THE AUTHOR; Back Cover Canadian poetry 21st century.
