The Selected Poetry of Dan Pagis, Paperback / softback Book

The Selected Poetry of Dan Pagis Paperback / softback

Part of the Literature of the Middle East series

Paperback / softback

Description

Dan Pagis (1930-1986) spent three of his adolescent years in a Nazi camp before arriving in Palestine in 1946.

He became one of the most vibrant voices in modern Israeli poetry and is considered a major world poet of his generation.

A master scholar of Hebrew literature, Pagis drew fully on classical texts and infused his poetry with a centuries-old mysticism.

Yet he also brought an immediacy and colloquialism to Hebrew poetry.

In these superbly translated poems, Dan Pagis' voice can be heard celebrating the human spirit.
