Map de Wislawa Szymborska

Map

Autor Wislawa Szymborska
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 apr 2016

Considerăm că volumul Map reprezintă resursa fundamentală pentru studenții de filologie, cercetătorii literaturii est-europene și practicienii artei poetice, oferind o privire de ansamblu asupra unei cariere distinse cu Premiul Nobel. Această ediție în format paperback, publicată de HOUGHTON MIFFLIN, nu este doar o antologie, ci o cartografiere cronologică a unei voci care a definit umanismul modern. Găsim în acest volum un echilibru între simplitatea limbajului și profunzimea interogației, elemente care au consacrat-o pe Wislawa Szymborska ca o figură centrală a canonului literar.

Această ediție aduce un plus de valoare semnificativ față de publicațiile anterioare. În timp ce Poems, New and Collected acoperea activitatea până în 1997, Map extinde acest orizont până la finalul vieții poetei, incluzând cele treisprezece poeme din volumul final, „Enough”. Perspectiva este completată de selecția tradusă de Clare Cavanagh, care reușește să păstreze „eleganța ironică” specifică autoarei, oferind o claritate pe care alte ediții fragmentate o omit. Din punct de vedere comparativ, Map completează perspectiva oferită de Wislawa Szymborska's Poetry de Anna Nasilowska, adăugând textul poetic propriu-zis analizelor critice și eseurilor poloneze prezentate în acea lucrare. De asemenea, dacă The Collected Poems de Zbigniew Herbert documentează rezistența prin moralitate, volumul de față propune o formă diferită de libertate intelectuală: cea a scepticismului jucăuș și a refuzului certitudinilor tiranice.

Despre autor

Wislawa Szymborska (1923–2012) a fost o figură proeminentă a literaturii poloneze, activând ca editor de poezie, traducătoare și eseistă. Recunoașterea sa internațională a culminat în 1996, când i-a fost decernat Premiul Nobel pentru Literatură, motivat de o poezie care, cu precizie ironică, permite contextului istoric și biologic să iasă la lumină în fragmente de realitate umană. Opera sa, deși nu foarte vastă cantitativ, este remarcabilă prin profunzimea observației și refuzul retoricii grandioase, fiind tradusă în numeroase limbi și apreciată pentru claritatea sa deosebită.

Descriere scurtă

“Both plain-spoken and luminous . . . [Szymborska’s] is the best of the Western mind—free, restless, questioning.” — New York Times Book Review

A New York Times Editors’ Choice
 
“Vast, intimate, and charged with the warmth of a life fully imagined to the end. There’s no better place for those unfamiliar with her work to begin.”
— Vogue
 
One of Europe’s greatest poets is also its wisest, wittiest, and most accessible. Nobel Prize winner Wislawa Szymborska draws us in with her unexpected, unassuming humor. “If you want the world in a nutshell,” a Polish critic remarked, “try Szymborska.” But the world held in these lapidary poems is larger than the one we thought we knew.

?Edited by her longtime, award-winning translator, Clare Cavanagh, Map traces Szymborska’s work until her death in 2012. Of the approximately two hundred fifty poems included here, nearly forty are newly translated; thirteen represent the entirety of the poet’s last Polish collection, Enough, never before published in English. Map offers Szymborska’s devoted readers a welcome return to her “ironic elegance” (TheNew Yorker).
 
“Her poems offer a restorative wit as playful as it is steely and as humble as it is wise . . . Her wry acceptance of life’s folly remain[s] her strongest weapon against tyranny and bad taste.”
— Los Angeles Times Book Review

Recenzii

New York Times Editor's Choice New York Times Paperback Row   "Both plain-spoken and luminous…Szymborska’s skepticism, her merry, mischievous irreverence and her thirst for the surprise of fresh perception make her the enemy of all tyrannical certainties. Hers is the best of the Western mind—free, restless, questioning.”--New York Times Book Review   "Vast, intimate, and charged with the warmth of a life fully imagined to the end, there’s no better place for those unfamiliar with her work to begin."--Megan O'Grady, Vogue   "An extraordinary and vital summation of Szymborska’s decidedly modest output...Not only is Szymborska a major poet of the last half century but Map, as a reading experience, is wonderful, illuminating and enriching, a reminder that poetry can be direct, unadorned and still deeply moving...Weigh the mastery of Wislawa Szymborska, read Map, read any of her poems this year, the 20th anniversary of her Nobel Prize, if only for a short while."—Literary Hub   “Listening to Clare Cavanagh speak of translation as an art is a reminder that translators must be as adept as poets at working with words...Map is not only impressive because of Szymborska’s precise, intimate, and observationally funny poems...but because of Cavanagh and Baranczak’s tireless dedication in bringing them to English without sacrificing their forms."--Jacob Victorine, Publishers Weekly Profile   "Nobel laureate Szymborska’s gorgeous posthumous collection, translated and edited by her confidant, Cavanagh, with Baranczak, includes more than 250 poems, selected from 13 books, dating back to 1952, as well as previously unreleased poems from as far back as 1944. This revered Polish poet, who came to fame well after the poet Charles Simic first handed her work to an editor, interweaves insights into the suffering experienced during WWII and the Cold War brutalities of Stalin with catchy, realistic, colloquial musings on obvious and overlooked aspects of survival. Her poems are revelatory yet rooted in the everyday. She writes about living with horrors, and about ordinary lives: people in love, at work, enjoying a meal. Throughout, Szymborska considers loss and fragility, as when former lovers walk past each other and an aging professor is no longer allowed his vodka and cigarettes. She writes, too, of the imprecision of memory, and in the title poem, the discovery that maps “give no access to the vicious truth.” This is a brilliant and important collection."— Mark Eleveld, Booklist, starred review   "Szymborska (1923–2012), winner of the 1996 Nobel Prize in Literature, has her vast and impressive poetic repertoire on full display in this posthumously published volume. Ordered chronologically, the book reveals her development over seven decades, including a gradual departure from end rhyme and the sharpening of her wit. As multitudinous as Whitman, she conveyed deep feeling through vivid, surreal imagery and could revive clichéd language by reconnecting it to the body in startling ways: “Listen,/ how your heart pounds inside me.” To say that Szymborska wore many hats as a poet is an understatement: odes, critiques, and persona poems are just a few of the forms her writing took. Yet, despite their diversity, the constants of her poems were nuance and observational humor: 'Four billion people on this earth,/ but my imagination is still the same.' Also apparent is Szymborska’s rare ability to present an epiphany in a single line, and her bravery in writing toward death: 'But time is short. I write.' Ever the student, she obsessively explor —
