The Essential Neruda de Pablo Neruda

The Essential Neruda

Autor Pablo Neruda Editat de Mark Eisner
en Limba Engleză Paperback – apr 2004

Ne-a atras atentia in mod deosebit structura acestui volum, care reuseste sa condenseze o cariera literara monumentala intr-o antologie de referinta. The Essential Neruda nu este doar o simpla colectie de versuri, ci un efort editorial coordonat de Mark Eisner si o echipa de experti din ambele Americi, menit sa ofere o imagine de ansamblu asupra diversitatii stilistice a lui Pablo Neruda. De la manifestele politice pana la oda obiectelor cotidiene, selectia reflecta evolutia poetului chilian fara a sacrifica profunzimea in favoarea accesibilitatii.

Apreciem rigoarea procesului de traducere; poeti si traducatori de renume, precum Alistair Reid si Stephen Mitchell, au colaborat pentru a revizui texte clasice sau pentru a oferi versiuni noi unor poeme ramase pana acum in afara spatiului anglofon. Cititorii familiarizati cu volumul Full Woman, Fleshly Apple, Hot Moon vor aprecia aici o perspectiva mai vasta, care depaseste perioada de maturitate a autorului pentru a include si primele sale explorari suprarealiste sau epopeile istorice. Daca lucrarea All the Odes se concentra strict pe o anumita forma poetica, acest volum functioneaza ca o harta a intregului univers nerudian.

Textul pastreaza un ritm echilibrat, alternand intre pasiunea din 100 Love Sonnets si angajamentul social regasit in alte scrieri majore. Este o resursa indispensabila pentru curriculumul de literatura universala, oferind o poarta de intrare autentica in opera celui pe care Gabriel Garcia Marquez il numea cel mai mare poet al secolului XX.

Despre autor

Pablo Neruda (1904–1973), pe numele sau real Ricardo Eliécer Neftalí Reyes Basoalto, a fost un poet, diplomat si politician chilian, laureat al Premiului Nobel pentru Literatura in 1971. Considerat unul dintre cei mai influenti scriitori ai secolului XX, Neruda a debutat la varsta de 13 ani si a abordat o varietate impresionanta de stiluri: de la erotismul din Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair la suprarealism si poezie angajata politic. Figura centrala a stangii chiliene si apropiat al presedintelui Salvador Allende, viata sa a fost marcata de exil si de o activitate diplomatica intensa, ramanand in istorie drept „poetul poporului”.

Descriere scurtă

This collection of Neruda’s most essential poems will prove indispensable. Selected by a team of poets and prominent Neruda scholars in both Chile and the U.S., this is a definitive selection that draws from the entire breadth and width of Neruda’s various styles and themes. An impressive group of translators that includes Alistair Reid, Stephen Mitchell, Robert Hass, Stephen Kessler and Jack Hirschman have come together to revisit or completely retranslate the poems; and a handful of previously untranslated works are included as well. This selection sets the standard for a general, high--quality introduction to Neruda’s complete oeuvre.
Pablo Neruda was born in Chile in 1904. He received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1971.

Recenzii


"The call for a more accessible collection of Neruda's important poems is answered with City Lights' The Essential Neruda, a 200-page edition that offers 50 of Neruda's key poems. The editors and translators know how to extract gold from a lifetime of prolific writing. If you want a handy Neruda companion and don't know where to begin, this is it."—Bloomsbury Review
" ...The Essential Neruda will prove to be, for most readers, the best introduction to Neruda available in English. In fact, I can think of few other books that have given me so much delight so easily. At only 234 pages (bilingual), it somehow manages to convey the fullness of Neruda's poetic arc: Reading it is like reading the autobiography of a poetic sensibility (granted, the abridged version)."—Austin Chronicle
"This book is a must-have for any reader interested in a definitive sampling of the most essential poems by one whom many consider one of the best poets of the 20th century."—Tulsa World
"What better way to celebrate the hundred years of Neruda's glorious residence on our earth than this selection of crucial works - in both languages! - by one of the greatest poets of all time. A splendid way to begin a love affair with our Pablo or, having already succumbed to his infinite charms, revisit him passionately again and again and yet again."—Ariel Dorfman, author of Konfidenz and The Nanny and the Iceberg
"If the notion had struck Pablo Neruda, I am quite sure that like Fernando Pessoa and Antonio Machado he would have given birth to what the former called heteronyms. Like Pessoa especially, Neruda can be several poets according to where he is and when and what his mood might be. It is quite fitting therefore that his work in this anthology be shared by various translators, for, ideally, a translator is but another heteronym speaking in a different tongue and at a different time. Neruda is well served here by these other voices of his."—Gregory Rabassa
