{"product_id":"the-complete-works-of-the-pearl-poet-9780520078710","title":"The Complete Works of the Pearl Poet","description":"This edition presents, for the first time, the entire oeuvre of the \u003ci\u003ePearl\u003c\/i\u003e poet with both the original Middle English works and complete verse translations. Poet and scholar Casey Finch uses anapestic tetrameters (and iambic tetrameter for \u003ci\u003ePearl\u003c\/i\u003e) in his translations rather than the accented tetrameters of the originals, thus achieving the rhythmic regularity the poems would have displayed when performed to music, as they surely were meant to be. Finch's translations are printed facing the best modern editions of the poems, those of Malcolm Andrew and Ronald Waldron and of Clifford Peterson.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Casey Finch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/06\/1993\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 488\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.07w x 1.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520078710","brand":"University of California Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45175677943945,"sku":"9780520078710","price":38.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_ea21d7ff-e152-47ef-b664-7ee2571dbc62.jpg?v=1768891791","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/the-complete-works-of-the-pearl-poet-9780520078710","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
