Stories and Poems/Cuentos Y Poesias | Border of a Dream | The Collected Poems of Octavio Paz, 1957-1987 | Selected Writings of Ruben Dario
Written over the course of seven years and in many locales in Latin America and Europe, the poems in Cantos de vida y esperanza reflect both DarÃoâs anguished sense of modern life and his ecstatic visions of transcendence, freedom, and the transformative power of art. They reveal DarÃoâs familiarity with Spanish, French, and English literature and the wide range of his concernsâexistential, religious, erotic, and socio-political. Derusha and Aceredaâs translation renders DarÃoâs themes with meticulous clarity and captures the structural and acoustic dimensions of the poetâs language in all its rhythmic sonority. Their introduction places this singular poetâarguably the greatest to emerge from Latin America in modern literatureâand his best and most widely known work in historical and literary context. An extensive glossary offers additional information, explaining terms related to modernismo, Hispanic history, mythological allusions, and artists and writers prominent at the turn of the last century.
About: Renowned for its depth of feeling and musicality, the poetry of Rubén DarÃo (1867â1916) has been revered by writers including Federico GarcÃa Lorca, Pablo Neruda, and Octavio Paz.
