The revision covers all the poems published in Princeton's earlier bilingual edition, George Seferis: Collected Poems (expanded edition, 1981). Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1963, George Seferis (1900-1971) has long been recognized as a major international figure, and Keeley and Sherrard are his ideal translators. They create, in the words of Archibald MacLeish, a \"translation worthy of Seferis, which is to praise it as highly as it could be praised.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlthough Seferis was preoccupied with his tradition as few other poets of the same generation were with theirs, and although he was actively engaged in the immediate political aspirations of his nation, his value for readers lies in what he made of this preoccupation and this engagement in fashioning a broad poetic vision. He is also known for his stylistic purity, which allows no embellishment beyond that necessary for precise yet rich poetic statement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780691264660\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e Height: 8.5 inches, Length: 5.5 inches, Weight: 0.89948602896 pounds, Width: 0.72 inches\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"George Seferis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51863282188595,"sku":"9780691264660","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/3636\/7411\/files\/2633743482434.jpg?v=1754193509","url":"https:\/\/bookabaloo.com\/products\/george-seferis","provider":"Bookabaloo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
