 Selected Poems   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Riley’s socialism is evident yet understated and her ‘political’ texts are generally more exploratory than didactic.
Riley herself, as persona, appears as the accidental onlooker, trying to ‘think’ and understand but accepting her fortunate distance from events – “by accident of place of birth protected”.
Riley’s work is often self-reflective, in that she frequently comments on the act of writing itself, a philosophical speculation which invariably enriches rather than distorts her texts.

Riley's language remains faithful to this ethical charge by entrenching itself squarely within the possibilities of finitude.
Peter Robinson notes that Riley isn't interested in "a desiccating of the human subject" but instead "attempts to sustain the poetic subject on other grounds": "he includes himself in as a vulnerable and damaged part of the material which can find itself in or out of relations with others and things" (72).
Riley retains a poetic subject but one who is part of the fabric of a damaged world.

In her essay entitled “Does History Have a Sex,” Denise Riley goes to the center of the issues surrounding “woman” as category by challenging the reasons a fixed definition is so attractive.
Unwilling to engage in the debate from within, Riley suggests another, and to her more viable, approach to the issue, which does not play into the tensions created from both sides.

Writing about changes in the notion of womanhood, Denise Riley examines, in the manner of Foucault, shifting historical constructions of the category of "women" in relation to other categories central to concepts of personhood: the soul, the mind, the body, nature, the social.
To fully recognize the ambiguity of the category of "women" is, she contends, a necessary condition for an effective feminist political philosophy.
Denise Riley teaches at the University of East Anglia, UK, and has also held teaching posts at Brown University and at the Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton.

Riley is rather suspicious of American poetry and in fact argues that the influence of American experimentalism on British poets had run its course by the mid-1960s.

 Jacket 20 - Drew Milne reviews Poets on Writing: Britain, 1970–1991, Ed. Denise Riley
Denise Riley is to be congratulated on the number of poets she has persuaded to risk this gathering, even if some could not be persuaded to risk prose.
As Riley concedes: ‘Although there are loose clumps of persuasion within the book, the allegiances here are given as much by the criss-crossings of small-press publishing and editing as by aesthetic or programmatic loyalties.’ (p.1) Loosely clumped persuasions are rarely persuasive.
95) Despite the implication of specific autonomy, Peter Riley goes on to suggest ontological primacy to the poetic field: ‘I think that the function of poetry is precisely to keep alive the true nature of the person, and only thus of the world and society, whatever prosaic mass-charters are perpetrated elsewhere.’ (p.

Riley is profound and hilarious in these essays, turning her most lucid philosophy of language into vignettes from ordinary life and thus quite brilliantly establishing a philosophy of language for emotional vexations that emerge from and against impinging social and linguistic conventions.
Throughout this book Riley does an excellent job of grappling with the idea of 'women' as a category that has been socially constructed.
In this compelling piece Riley disects the relationship between...

Undermining them again, let me say that the culture of the North is largely an import, so that any thematic unity is shaky (and surprising); and that it has much in common with other (peripheral, mountainous, or industrial) regions, so that the themes mentioned can easily be found in Wales or Scotland.

I have little to add to the totality of the special Peter Riley issue of Gig, and anything I could say in such small space would be pointless in the face of such analysis.
Since I discovered that there is more to poetry than is dreamt of in our arts administration, there has been Peter Riley, steadily producing poetry of high quality, which not only seems to get better, but seems to get better cumulatively; and the early poetry seems pretty good still even on its own terms.
When I spoke at KCL some years ago on the subject of the visual in poetry, I doubt Peter knows this, I used a line break in Snow has fallen to show how much can be done with well-judged white space.

Thus women's historians (to take the example I know best) have asked how changes in the legal, social, economic, and medical status of women affected their possibilities for emancipation or equality; but they have asked less often how these changes altered the meaning (socially articulated, subjectively understood) of the term women itself.
Few feminist historians (Denise Riley is the exception here) have heeded the advice of Michel Foucault to historicize the categories that the present takes to be self-evident realities.
Even though, for Foucault, the "history of the present" served a clear political end (denaturalizing the categories upon which contemporary structures of power rested and so destabilizing those structures of power), those who resist his teaching have taken historicization to be synonymous with depoliticization.

Secondly, experimental engagements with nationalist rhetorics of identity, marking the works of Carol Ann Duffy, Denise Riley, Wendy Mulford, and Geraldine Monk, are explored in relation to contemporary evocations of “self” in Britain.
And thirdly, in discussions of all of the poets, but particularly accenuated in regard to Guest, Fraser, Riley, Mulford, and Monk, formal experimentation with the lyric “I” is considered through gendered encounters with critical and avant-garde discourses of poetics.
