Jones. Preface by Eliot Weinberger. 178 pages. paperback. NDP969. Cover photograph by Jeffrey Yang. Design by Semadar Megged. keywords: Europe Netherlands Literature Poetry Translated World Literature. DESCRIPTION - AGAINST THE FORGETTING presents the work of the Netherlands' most eminent twentieth-century poet, Hans Faverey. This collection brings together poems from his eight published volumes spanning the years 1968 to 1990 as well as a selection of poems from a posthumous collection, SPRING FOXES, first published in Holland in 2000. Filled with a precision and arresting musicality comparable to the hermetic poems of Celan and Bronk, and as mysterious as the writings of Heraclitus and the German mystic Meister Eckhart, Faverey's poems, like Lichtenberg's lightning frozen in time, lash out, splintering systems and syntax - enlightening. 'Hans Faverey made his reputation only gradually. He is a poet of losses and silences, of meditations on change and how change either undermines or strengthens our sense of reality.' - Edwin Morgan. 'In the world he has left behind, I still feel the presence of Hans Faverey like the proximity of a dangerous wound. In Rotterdam I took part in a translation project devoted to his work. He had only a few weeks to live. The light, the secret wound, the beauty, the reflection of the approaching end - all of this has remained for me as the painful light emitted by his poetry.' - Gennady Aygi. inventory #37311.

Besides being a poet, he was a lecturer at the psychology department of the Universiteit Leiden. Faverey was born in Suriname, but moved to the Netherlands in 1939 where he graduated from the University of Amsterdam, and was a psychologist by profession. In 1959 he married the poet Lela Zeckovic, and in 1965 started to work at the University of Leiden as a lecturer. Faverey's poetry is thought of as dense and difficult, though Favery usually laughed at such remarks, saying that it really is not that hard. His first two collections were poorly received and only few critics praised them; nevertheless, he received the Poetry Award from the city of Amsterdam for his debut, "Gedichten" ("Poems")'. (Wiki) ***'"Against the Forgetting" introduces an important poet with the first extensive selection in English from the work of Hans Faverey (1933-1990). Francis R. Jones's translations capture both the musicality and the sinuous density of Faverey's original Dutch. Quiet, rich and thoughtful, Faverey's poetry developed from the fragmented, mysterious images of his early work to the more explicit and representational style with which he gained wider recognition.' (Quote taken from the front flap) ***"Emptying one's head / with one's hand on one's heart. / Hitting my head / to empty my heart. / Meanwhile, enticing distance, / as distance should / be: enticing. (Quote taken from the poem 'from Hommage a Hercules Seghers') ***First printing of the true first edition, in virtually fine condition. Published as a paperback original. A beautifully produced poetry book. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.
