It is written in the same prose style that distinguishes \u003ci\u003eThe Labyrinth of Solitude\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003ci\u003eThe Bow and the Lyre\u003c\/i\u003e will serve as an important complement to Paz's poetry. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Paz's discussions of the different aspects of the poetic phenomenon are not limited to Spanish and Spanish American literature. He is almost as apt to choose an example from Homer, Vergil, Blake, Whitman, Rimbaud as he is from Lope de Vega, Jim?nez, Dar?o, Neruda. In writing these essays, he draws on his vast storehouse of knowledge, revealing a world outlook of ample proportions. In reading these essays, we share the observations of a searching, original, highly cultivated mind. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Octavio Paz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Texas Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/1973\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Texas Pan American\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 294\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.96lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.66d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780292707641","brand":"University of Texas Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42860072337545,"sku":"9780292707641","price":28.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_e3107ea0-5c9a-4ec8-bbb0-f78187e97a4f.jpg?v=1722316596","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/the-bow-and-the-lyre-the-poem-the-poetic-revelation-poetry-and-history-9780292707641","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
