Stéphane Mallarmé: The Poems in Verse

Stéphane Mallarmé: The Poems in Verse

The Poems in Verse is Peter Manson s translation of the PoÃ©sies of StÃ©phane MallarmÃ©. Long overshadowed by MallarmÃ©'s theoretical writings and by his legendary visual poem Un coup de DÃ©s jamais n'abolira le Hasard, the PoÃ©sies are lyrics of a uniquely prescient and generative modernity. Grounded in a scrupulous sounding of the complex ambiguities of the original poems, Manson s English translations draw on the resources of the most innovative poetries of our own time these may be the first translations really to trust the English language to bear the full weight of MallarmÃ©an complexity. With The Poems in Verse, MallarmÃ©'s voice is at last brought back, with all its incisive strangeness, into the conversation it started a hundred and fifty years ago, called contemporary poetry.
