Book First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Godalming. Ancient Purple Translations. 2009. First Edition. Thought to be first printing; no edition remarks. Soft Cover. Laminated wraps with night sky design. Titles in Russian and English to the front panel. Condition is fine. This bilingual collection of works by 56 Russian poets spans the whole of the 20th century, from Innokenty Annensky (1855-1909) to Boris Ryzhy (1974-2001). It provides a glimpse into the fascinating portable world of small-form poetry that is carried along by every cultured speaker of Russian. The all-new "congruent" translations, based on the system described and justified in Editor's Introduction, offer Anglophone readers a rare opportunity to appreciate Russian verse on its own terms, complete with its characteristic formal features. The book offers annotations to both the translations and the originals, a concise timeline of 20th-century Russian history putting the poems in context, and also indexes of metres and rhyme schemes intended for readers who may wish to find examples of a particular poetic form. The wraps will be covered with a 100 micron inert protective cover which is removable. Please contact us if you would like any more information or additional photographs.
