Book Synopsis From Lisbon to the World by : George Monteiro
Download or read book From Lisbon to the World written by George Monteiro and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2018-09-04 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fernando Pessoa is one of the greatest poets of the 20th century. Until some years ago known in the English-speaking world only among a minority of connaisseurs, his work is finally becoming available in English translations, and more are in the process of reaching the literary public. Born in Lisbon in 1888, Pessoa was only forty-seven when he died, but he left behind a staggering number of unpublished manuscripts that are still being screened and brought to light. George Steiner heralded the day Pessoa discovered his major Portuguese heteronyms, for no country had ever seen the birth of four great poets in a single day. That was a reference to the personae Pessoa created, the famous heteronyms Alberto Caeiro, Alvaro de Campos, and Ricardo Reis, besides the man himself -- all poets in their own right with their biographies and even critical exchanges among themselves. Today well over a hundred Pessoa heteronyms are known, including, notably, the semi-heteronym Bernardo Soares, author of The Book of Disquiet, presently available in two English translations. Lately, another Pessoa is emerging -- an English writer, as well as a thinker. Indeed, having been educated in Durban, South Africa, where his stepfather was the consul of Portugal, the poet had a strong English education that shaped his life and thought. George Monteiro has been in the forefront of the uncovering of this side of Pessoa. Author, among many other works, of The Presence of Pessoa: English, American, and Southern African Literary Responses, and Fernando Pessoa and Nineteenth-Century Anglo-American Literature, in this volume Monteiro continues to explore and interpret the world of Pessoa to English-speaking readers.
Book Synopsis The Cartography of Being by : Nuno Júdice
Download or read book The Cartography of Being written by Nuno Júdice and published by . This book was released on 2012-05-02 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This bilingual anthology of fifty one poems selected from Judice's extensive poetic opus covers the years of 1967 to 2005 and contains the original Portuguese poems face a face with their English translations. Although his works have been translated into twelve languages in twenty countries, Judice's poetry is underrepresented in the English language. At present, this anthology stands as the only book of his poetry available in the English language. The extended, contemplative tone in many of Judice's poems, his unhurried meditation on the subject at hand will appeal to the reader who seeks refuge from the present day diet of fast-food culture. Judice's poetry is a welcome counterpoint to the hurried existence of our modern lives. In this collection of bilingual poems the reader will find words that slowly melt into the page as though he or she contemplated an unhurried winter icicle melt from the eaves or the heavens, departing one form to embody another, before dropping into the reader's mind to moisten a new consciousness and renewed understanding of being. Nuno Judice was born in 1949 Algarve, Portugal. A professor at Lisbon's Universidade Nova, he served from 1997 to 2004 as the cultural attache of the Portuguese Embassy in Paris. One of the most important contemporary poetic voices in Portuguese literature he has written more than fifty books of poetry, fiction, essays, criticism and drama. His poetry has garnered over a dozen prizes and, although translated into twelve languages, is underrepresented in English. paulo da costa was born in Angola and raised in Portugal. He is a writer, editor and translator living on the West Coast of Canada. paulo's first book of fiction The Scent of a Lie received the 2003 Commonwealth First Book Prize for the Canada-Caribbean Region and the W.

Book Synopsis Luso-American Literature by : Robert Henry Moser
Download or read book Luso-American Literature written by Robert Henry Moser and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Portuguese and Cape Verdean immigrants have had a significant presence in North America since the nineteenth century. Recently, Brazilians have also established vibrant communities in the U.S. This anthology brings together, for the first time in English, the writings of these diverse Portuguese-speaking, or "Luso-American" voices. Historically linked by language, colonial experience, and cultural influence, yet ethnically distinct, Luso-Americans have often been labeled an "invisible minority." This collection seeks to address this lacuna, with a broad mosaic of prose, poetry, essays, memoir, and other writings by more than fifty prominent literary figures--immigrants and their descendants, as well as exiles and sojourners. It is an unprecedented gathering of published, unpublished, forgotten, and translated writings by a transnational community that both defies the stereotypes of ethnic literature, and embodies the drama of the immigrant experience.
Book Synopsis Fernando Pessoa & Co. by : Fernando Pessoa
Download or read book Fernando Pessoa & Co. written by Fernando Pessoa and published by Open Road + Grove/Atlantic. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive English translation of poetry from the renowned Portuguese author of The Book of Disquiet: “An arresting . . . body of work” (Newsday). Born in 1888, Fernando Pessoa is widxely considered Portugal’s greatest modern poet and author. With an introduction that illuminates the life and work of this elusive literary giant, Fernando Pessoa & Co. is the most comprehensive and elegantly translated edition of Pessoa’s poetry available in English. Pessoa was as much a creator of personas as he was of poetry, prose, and criticism. He wrote under what he referred to as “heteronyms,” numerous alter egos with fully fleshed identities and writing styles, who supported and criticized each other’s work in the margins of his drafts and in the literary journals of the time. Ranging widely over the possibilities of language, Pessoa’s poetry echoes symbolist verse, Portuguese folk song, and futurist manifesto. From spare minimalism to a revolutionary exuberance that recalls Walt Whitman’s Leaves of Grass, Pessoa’s oeuvre was radically new and anticipated contemporary literature to an unnerving degree. Fernando Pessoa & Co. is “a beautiful one-volume course in the soul of the twentieth century” (Booklist).

Download or read book Jorge de Sena written by and published by . This book was released on 2016-09-10 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jorge de Sena (1919-1978) was regarded by many as not only the premier contemporary poet of Portugal, but also the third of all time after Camões and Pessoa. He published more than a hundred books in a wide range of genres that included cultural studies, literary theory, essay, translation, criticism, drama, fiction, and poetry. His diverse formal training included Portugal's naval academy, a Licentiate in civil engineering from the University of Oporto, and a Ph.D. in literature from the University of São Paulo. He taught at two universities in Brazil before coming to the United States in 1965, where he accepted a full professorship at the University of Wisconsin at Madison. Then in 1970, he moved to the University of California at Santa Barbara where he was chair of two departments: Spanish and Portuguese, and Comparative Literature.Jorge de Sena: 100 Poems and More contains representative poems from each of his fourteen volumes of poetry, in both the original Portuguese as well as in English translation. There is also a useful introductory study, notes on each book of poetry, photographs, and an informative forward by his wife Mécia on Sena's long association with Anglo-American letters. The appendix contains a bibliographic listing of all of Sena's publications and two studies: a personal reminiscence of his teaching style and mentoring while a professor in the United States, and an analysis of some of his most significant moral teachings. Also provided is a reference to access a color video of Jorge de Sena reading his own poetry that includes a photo-biographical introduction and an interview.

Book Synopsis Haroldo de Campos by : Haroldo de Campos
Download or read book Haroldo de Campos written by Haroldo de Campos and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is based on a series of papers that were presented at conferences at Oxford and Yale universities in honour of Haroldo de Campos as a poet, critic and translator. It is important for its critical focus on the concrete aesthetic in prose and poetry as well as the close-up of Haroldo de Campos by major names in international literary studies. A founder of the movement of concrete poetry in Brazil in the 1950s, Haroldo de Campos (1929-2003) was a distinguished essayist, translator, and theorist. Nicknamed by German semiotician Max Bense the locomotive of Sao Paulo, Campos's influence has been profound. He changed the course of Brazilian literature and Portuguese language poetry in over fifty years of devotion to their international and comparative dimensions. Caetano Veloso alludes to Campos in his songs, the Tropicalia movement made him known to an entire new generation, and the writing of poetry in Brazil came to reflect concrete techniques and materials."
