The revision covers all the poems published in Princeton's earlier bilingual edition, \u003ci\u003eGeorge Seferis: Collected Poems\u003c\/i\u003e (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.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e George Seferis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Princeton University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/23\/1995\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Lockert Library of Poetry in Translation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 322\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.86lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.56h x 5.60w x 0.77d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780691014913\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRev Edition\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Princeton University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42713384714377,"sku":"9780691014913","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_fa132b7f-8a03-4af7-8731-a7daefd382c8.jpg?v=1719609782","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/george-seferis-collected-poems-revised-edition-9780691014913","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
