The Anchor Anthology of French Poetry: From Nerval to Valery in English Translation,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
First published in 1958, this collection introduced an indispensible corpus of western poetry to countless American college students, francophiles, and wouldbe poets among them Patti Smith, whose vocation was formed she says, by reading this book. The poetic and cultural tradition forged by the Symbolist poets Baudelaire, Rimbaud, Verlaine, Appollinaire, and others reverberated throughout the avant garde and countercultures of the twentieth century. Modernism, surrealism, abstract impressionism, and the Beat movement are unthinkable without the example of these poets and their theories of art, making this reissue possibly the hippest "dead white European male" anthology ever published.Including translations by Richmond Lattimore, W. S. Merwin, Dudley Fitts, and Richard Wilbur, this anthology has stood the test of time in terms of its selection and scholarly apparatus. Now back in print after twenty years in a fresh new edition, the book features an introduction by Patti Smith that testifies to its epochal impact on her own career, as well as those of other influential latterday poets, including Lou Reed and Jim Carroll. This rediscovered gem is sure to inspire a new generation.
