Paperback. Condition: New. When she died in poverty at 31, Edith Södergran had been dismissed as a mad, megalomaniac aristocrat by most of her Finnish contemporaries. Today she is regarded as Finland's greatest modern poet. Her poems - written in Swedish - are intensely visionary, and have been compared with Rimbaud's, yet they…also show deep affinities with Russian poetry, with the work of Blok, Mayakovsky and Severyanin in particular. Born in 1892 of a Finno-Swedish family, Edith Södergran grew up in Raivola, a village on the Russian border, but was educated at a German school in St Petersburg. Her early influences were Goethe and Heine, and she wrote first in German. The driving force of Edith Södergran's mature Swedish poetry was her struggle against TB, which she contracted in 1908. For much of her short life she was a semi-invalid in sanatoria in Finland and Switzerland. Her last years were spent amid the turmoil of the Russian Revolution and in desperate poverty in Raivola, where she died in 1923. Edith Södergran saw herself as an inspired free spirit of a new order, a disciple on her own terms of Nietzsche, then of the nature mystic Rudolf Steiner, and ?nally of Christ. But her voice is subtle and wholly original. It transcends the limits imposed by her illness to make lyrical statements about the violence and darkness of the modern world - imagistic poems that are alarming in the surreal beauty of their fragmentary diction.David McDuff's edition was the first complete translation into English of Edith Södergran's Swedish poetry. His versions adhere as closely as possible to the spirit and the letter of the Swedish original. In his introductory essay David McDuff gives a comprehensive and illuminating account of Edith Södergran's life and work.

Paperback. Condition: New. Edith Södergran's vital, compelling and very personal poems have been translated into many languages, and several times into English. Written for the most part when she was dying of tuberculosis in a remote Finnish frontier village only a short train journey away from revolutionary Petrograd, they are…a major contribution to European modernism. These letters are almost all that remains to us of her work, apart from the poetry. The most personal of them were written between 1919 and 1923 to two like-minded young Finland-Swedish writers, Hagar Olsson and Elmer Diktonius. They are unusually spontaneous and show Södergran in many moods, passionate and caring, intransigent, desperate for human contact, and racked by religious doubts that threaten to stifle the very poetry for which she lived. The collection is accompanied by an introduction and notes which both contextualize the letters and greatly enhance our understanding of Södergran's life and poetry.".

Add to basketCondition: FINE. First printing, a slim trade paperback original, A selection of poems by this little known Swedish- Finnish writer. Although she was born in Russia and attended German language schools in St Petersburg, when she started to write her poetry, she made a clear decision to do in Swedish. Translated and introduced by… Samuel Charters. Sodergran was one of the first feminist poets, and one of the first modernists. Her work was bitterly attacked during her lifetime, and when she died at age 31, after years of suffering from tuberculosis, and living in abject poverty, one of the causes was malnutrition. Unpaginated. Fine in wrappers.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The trailblazing debut collection of Edith Sodergran, a modernist visionary and one of the most influential poets to write in Swedish. Sodergran's daring, avant-garde work outraged many of her Finland-Swedish contemporaries who clung to traditional literary sensibilities. Through dynamic sym…bolism and fluid logic, the poems comprising her first collection fundamentally questioned early twentieth-century notions of what poetry is and what it can do. 'Something like this has never been heard before,' noted critic and fellow Finland-Swedish poet Hagar Olsson about her work. During her short life, Sodergran enacted the poet's ultimate task of imagining previously unexplored possibilities for language, ushering literary modernism into Swedish-language writing and inspiring generations of writers since. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
