Collected Poems in English and French - Samuel Beckett

Descriere Collected Poems in English and French - Samuel Beckett

\n \nOne of the most important playwrights and novelists of the twentieth century, Samuel Beckett was also an accomplished poet and translator. Collected Poems in English and French is a complete collection of all the poetry by the Nobel Prize-winning writer, including his poetry written originally in English and French, as well as his translations of major French poets such as Paul Eluard, Arthur Rimbaud, and Guillaume Appollinaire.\n \nThe English poems include Whoroscope, his first published verse, as well as the thirteen poems first published in 1935 as Echo's Bones and Other Preipitates. In addition, there are the dozen poems in French that Beckett wrote in 1938 and 1939, his first creative work in that language; three of these are accompanied by Beckett's own English translations. Among the translations are those of eight Eluard poems, The Drunken Boat by Rimbaud, Zone by Apollinaire, and nine maxims by Chamfort.\n \nFrom his original work to his translations, Beckett's genius and masterful use of language are on display throughout this collection.\n
