From the moment she stepped through the Porta Romana, the place had an inexplicable hold on her. Her daylong exploration of the ruins turned into a profound experience: everything in the landscape spoke to her. Back in her then-home in New Jersey, she wrote down the title of all five books in The Argument of Time without any idea of what the actual content of each book would be, except it would be connected to Ostia in some way and that the poems would exist in English and Italian.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Book One: <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.teresacarson.com\/index.php\/2020\/10\/25\/visit-to-an-extinct-city\/\"><em>Visit to an Extinct City<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Book Two:<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.teresacarson.com\/index.php\/metamorphoses-book-xvi\/\"><em>Metamorphoses, Book XVI <\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Book Three:<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.teresacarson.com\/index.php\/time-out-of-joint\/\"><em>Time Out of Joint<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Book Four:\u00a0<\/strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.deerbrookeditions.com\/re-moved-used-covered\/\">Re [Moved] [Used] [Covered]<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"582\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/www.teresacarson.com\/index.php\/projects\/cavankerry_stacked_2csq-1-1024x1024\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teresacarson.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/CavanKerry_Stacked_2Csq-1-1024x1024-1.png?fit=1024%2C1024\" data-orig-size=\"1024,1024\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-title=\"CavanKerry_Stacked_2Csq-1-1024&amp;#215;1024\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teresacarson.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/CavanKerry_Stacked_2Csq-1-1024x1024-1.png?fit=720%2C720\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-582 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teresacarson.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/CavanKerry_Stacked_2Csq-1-1024x1024-1.png?resize=300%2C300\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teresacarson.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/CavanKerry_Stacked_2Csq-1-1024x1024-1.png?resize=300%2C300 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teresacarson.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/CavanKerry_Stacked_2Csq-1-1024x1024-1.png?resize=150%2C150 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teresacarson.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/CavanKerry_Stacked_2Csq-1-1024x1024-1.png?resize=768%2C768 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teresacarson.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/CavanKerry_Stacked_2Csq-1-1024x1024-1.png?w=1024 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><strong>CavanKerry Press blog: Teresa Carson on Poetry<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In this reoccurring blog series, Teresa supplies readers with thoughts on poetry based off her weekly\u00a0<em>la poesia della settimana<\/em>\u00a0emails.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cavankerrypress.org\/collections\/teresa-carson?_pos=1&amp;_psq=teresa+car&amp;_ss=e&amp;_v=1.0\">cavankerrypress.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Project: Argument of Time, Inc.\u00a0 &nbsp; The Argument of Time is a nonprofit organization dedicated to fostering public archaeology experiences through multi-national and multi-generational collaborations, across diverse artistic and academic disciplines, which result in site-specific performances in ancient and modern spaces that give audiences unexpected ways of experiencing personal, societal, and cultural Memory. &nbsp; &nbsp; Current Poetry Project: Argument of Time The Argument of Time, a five-book series, was&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-563","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/P70BCX-95","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":8,"url":"http:\/\/www.teresacarson.com\/index.php\/about-teresa\/","url_meta":{"origin":563,"position":0},"title":"About","author":"tcarson","date":"October 5, 2015","format":false,"excerpt":"\u00a0 Teresa Carson\u2019s work centers on the themes of time, memory, and fragments.
