Centuries Encircle Me with Fire : Selected Poems of Osip Mandelstam. A Bilingual English-Russian Edition, Hardback Book

Centuries Encircle Me with Fire : Selected Poems of Osip Mandelstam. A Bilingual English-Russian Edition Hardback

Hardback

Description

Osip Mandelstam (1891-1938) is widely regarded as one of the twentieth century's most influential poets.

This collection, compiled, translated, and edited by poet and scholar Ian Probstein, provides Anglophone audiences with a powerful selection of Mandelstam's most beloved and haunting poems.

Both scholars and general readers will gain a deeper understanding of his poetics, as Probstein situates each poem in its historical and literary context.

The English translations presented here are so deeply immersed in the Russian sources and language through the ear of a Russian-born Probstein who has spent most of his adult life in the US, that they provide reader's with a Mandelstam unseen any translations that precede it.
