Cavafy's Alexandria : Expanded Edition, Paperback / softback Book

Cavafy's Alexandria : Expanded Edition Paperback / softback

Part of the Princeton Modern Greek Studies series

Paperback / softback

Description

C. P. Cavafy, one of the greatest modern Greek poets, lived in Alexandria for all but a few of his seventy years.

Alexandria became, for Cavafy, a central poetic metaphor and eventually a myth encompassing the entire Greek world.

In this, the first full-length critical work on Cavafy in English, Keeley describes Cavafy's literary progress and aesthetic development in the making of that myth.
