Montale is a love poet whose deeply beautiful, individual work confronts the dilemmas of modern history, philosophy, and faith with courage and subtlety; he has been widely translated into English and his work has influenced two generations of American and British poets. Jonathan Galassi's versions of Montale's major works--\u003ci\u003eOssi di seppia\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eLe occasioni\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eLa bufera e altro\u003c\/i\u003e--are the clearest and most convincing yet, and his extensive notes discuss in depth the sources and difficulties of this dense, allusive poetry. This book offers English-language readers uniquely informed and readable access to the work of one of the greatest of all modern poets.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEugenio Montale\u003c\/b\u003e (1896-1981) received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1975. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eJonathan Galassi \u003c\/b\u003ehas also translated Montale's \u003ci\u003eThe Second Life of Art: Selected Essays \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eOtherwise: Last and First Poems.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 640\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.75 x 8.95 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 03, 2012\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42724238557247,"sku":"9780374533281","price":52.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/d0186427bd2ba2b3ef392a88fb7c39e1.webp?v=1765101983","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/collected-poems-1920-1954-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
