Ritsos in Parentheses (The Lockert Library of Poetry in Translation)
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 102.17 $Perhaps Greece's most important poet, Yannis Ritsos follows such eminent predecessors as Cavafy, Sikelianos, and Seferis in the dramatic and symbolic expression of a tragic sense of life. The three volumes of Ritsos's poetry translated here―Parentheses, 1946-47, Parentheses, 1950-61, and The Distant, 1975―represent a thirty year poetic journey and a developing sensibility that link the poet's subtler perceptions at different moments of his maturity. In his introduction to the poems, and as an explanation of the book's title, Edmund Keeley writes: "The two signs of the parenthesis are like cupped hands facing each other across a distance, hands that are straining to come together, to achieve a meeting that would serve to reaffirm human contact between isolated presences; but though there are obvious gestures toward closing the gap between the hands, the gestures seem inevitably to fail, and the meeting never quite occurs." In terms of the development of Ritsos's poetic vision, the distance within the parenthesis is shorter in each of the two earlier volumes than in the most recent volume. There the space has become almost infinite, yet Ritsos's powerfully evocative if stark landscape reveals a stylistic purity that is the latest mark of his greatness.Originally published in 1979.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Between Parentheses: Essays, Articles and Speeches, 1998-2003 [first edition]
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 40.00 $The essays of Roberto Bolano in English at last.Between Parentheses collects most of the newspaper columns and articles Bolano wrote during the last five years of his life, as well as the texts of some of his speeches and talks and a few scattered prologues. “Taken together,” as the editor Ignacio Echevarría remarks in his introduction, they provide “a personal cartography of the writer: the closest thing, among all his writings, to a kind of fragmented ‘autobiography.’” Bolano’s career as a nonfiction writer began in 1998, the year he became famous overnight for The Savage Detectives; he was suddenly in demand for articles and speeches, and he took to this new vocation like a duck to water. Cantankerous, irreverent, and insufferably opinionated, Bolano also could be tender (about his family and favorite places) as well as a fierce advocate for his heroes (Borges, Cortázar, Parra) and his favorite contemporaries, whose books he read assiduously and promoted generously. A demanding critic, he declares that in his “ideal literary kitchen there lives a warrior”: he argues for courage, and especially for bravery in the face of failure. Between Parentheses fully lives up to his own demands: “I ask for creativity from literary criticism, creativity at all levels.”

Repetitions, Testimonies, Parentheses
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 44.79 $The celebrated modern Greek poet Yannis Ritsos follows such distinguished predecessors as C. P. Cavafy and George Seferis in a dramatic and symbolic expression of a tragic sense of life. The shorter poems gathered in this volume present what Ritsos calls "simple things" that turn out not to be simple at all. Here we find a world of subtle nuances, in which everyday events hide much that is threatening, oppressive, and spiritually vacuous--but the poems also provide lyrical and idyllic interludes, along with cunning re-creations of Greek mythology and history. This collection of Ritsos's work--perhaps most of all those poems written while he was in forced exile under the dictatorship of the Colonels--testifies to his just place among the major European poets of this century. The distinguished translator of modern Greek poetry Edmund Keeley has chosen for this anthology selections from seven of Ritsos's volumes of shorter poems written between 1946 and 1975. Two of these volumes are represented here in English versions for the first time, two others have been translated only sporadically, and the remaining three were first published in a bilingual edition now out of print (Ritsos in Parentheses). The collection thus covers thirty years of a poetic career that is the most prolific, and among the most honored, in Greece's modern history.

Jacques André Boiffard - La parenthèse surréaliste
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 42.87 $De ses illustrations pour Nadja d’André Breton, en passant par Le Gros Orteil ou Les Mouches publiées dans la revue Documents de Georges Bataille, le photographe Jacques-André Boiffard (1902-1961) a offert les images parmi les plus emblématiques de l’iconographie surréaliste. Bien que restreinte en temps et en nombre, son oeuvre révèle en creux, tout autant que sa trajectoire intellectuelle et idéologique, les tensions traversant le mouvement d’avant-garde. Boiffard a été un témoin discret mais actif de l’aventure surréaliste signant par exemple, aux côtés de Paul Eluard et de Roger Vitrac, la préface du premier numéro de La Révolution surréaliste. S’il ne s’illustre que tardivement comme photographe après plus de quatre années passées dans l’ombre de Man Ray, Boiffard a cherché à amalgamer dans sa propre pratique du médium la subversion, l’étrangeté et l’onirisme, toujours avec intransigeance et obsession analytique.Membre de la première heure du mouvement, complice de Pierre Naville et de Simone Breton-Collinet, élève de Man Ray et enfin, compagnon de route du photographe d’avant-garde Eli Lotar, Boiffard demeure encore aujourd’hui une figure mystérieuse que l’ample fortune critique générée par son corpus n’a pas suffi à désépaissir. « [...] Que ceux d’entre nous dont le nom commencent à marquer l’effacent. Ils y gagneraient une liberté dont on peut encore espérer beaucoup [...] », écrivait Paul Nougé à André Breton en 1929. Boiffard semble avoir pris à son compte l’injonction du leader surréaliste belge en parant d’un voile opaque sa destinée fulgurante, sensible et intrigante qui reste aujourd’hui à exhumer.
