Backbone Flute: Selected Poetry Of Vladimir Mayakovsky - Andrey Kneller

Descriere Backbone Flute: Selected Poetry Of Vladimir Mayakovsky - Andrey Kneller

\nVladimir Mayakovsky (July 19, 1893 - April 14, 1930) is one of the most recognized and celebrated poets of the Russian canon. One of the leaders of the Russian Futurism movement, which sought to capture the wonder of the fast-paced modern world and renounced the static art of the past, Mayakovsky completely bent the boundaries of language and introduced an entirely different style of poetry. His irregular line-breaks, his use of internal rhyme, his control of meter and his sense of rhythm combined together to form his unique style. His imagery is overflowing with allusions, metaphors and hyperboles. His major works, A Cloud in Trousers, Backbone Flute, and I Love, sparkle with wit, wisdom and originality. This quality of his work is what also makes it incredibly difficult to translate.In this dual-language selection of Mayakovsky's poetry, Andrey Kneller attempts to capture not only the general meaning, but also the lyrical quality of the poetry that makes Mayakovsky a truly unique writer.
