Christian Wiman,Osip Mandelstam: Stolen Air: Selected Poems of Osip Mandelstam
Description
A new selection and translation of the work of Osip Mandelstam, perhaps the most important Russian poet of the twentieth centuryPolitical nonconformist Osip Mandelstam's opposition to Stalin's totalitarian government made him a target of the communist state. The public recitation of his 1933 poem known in English as "The Stalin Epigram" led to his arrest, exile, and eventual imprisonment in a Siberian transit camp, where he died, presumably in 1938. Mandelstam's work--much of it written under extreme duress--is an extraordinary testament to the enduring power of art in the face of oppression and terror.Stolen Air spans Mandelstam's entire poetic career, from his early highly formal poems in which he reacted against Russian Symbolism to the poems of anguish and defiant abundance written in exile, when Mandelstam became a truly great poet. Aside from the famous early poems, which have a sharp new vitality in Wiman's versions, Stolen Air includes large selections from The Moscow Notebooks and The Voronezh Notebooks. Going beyond previous translators who did not try to reproduce Mandelstam's music, Christian Wiman has captured in English--for the first time--something of Mandelstam's enticing, turbulent, and utterly heartbreaking sounds.
"A rich and readable introduction to the whole sweep of Russian cultural and intellectual history from Kievan times to the post-Khruschev era." - Library Journal. Illustrations, references, index.
If you're among the 1 in 20 people born as an "empath," life's about to get a whole lot better... * Does being with certain people leave you physically drained? * Do you seem to soak up other people's emotions like a sponge? * Do you feel overshadowed by others, not sure who Stolen Air: Selected Poems of Osip Mandelstam download epub you really are? * Have you tried other advice for empaths to no avail? * Do you secretly worry there's something wrong with you?
