Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Poetry. Cultural Writing. Translation. Greek Literature. With illustrations by Fran Burden. Was the Cyclops a lonely, psychopathic monster out to waylay and eat those unfortunate enough to encounter him, or a lonely creature given to impossible loves, who did nothing to deserve his terrible reputation? Fred Beake's new book gives curious readers an opportunity to reassess their own psyches in the light of a gifted modern poet's version of the classical myth. The book also contains original poems, themselves verging on myth, and a fine essay on the significance of myth in and for our times. Fred Beake was born in 1948 and grew up in the rural West Riding of Yorkshire. The present volume is his fourth substantial collection since The Whiteness of her Becoming in 1992; ETRUSCAN READER IX, which Beake contributed to, is also available from SPD. Poetry.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Poetry. Edited and Translated from the French by Fred Beake. Fred Beake grew up in the rural West Riding of Yorkshire. He studied Afro Asian studies at Sussex University, and has since translated widely from modern French and classical Latin, and more recently classical Greek. Thirty years of work as a poet reveal a personally realized impersonal vision--John Silkin. His is a vision emanating from an often surreal, sometimes seditious quest for meaning on the other side of music and myth. THE BEES OF THE HORIZON is a collection of twelve poems, including translations of Paul Valery 'Tombs by the sea', Louis Aragon 'Lilacs and Roses of 1940', Rene Char 'Artine' 'The She of History', etc., Robert Desnos 'The Night of Loveless Nights', and Michel Deguy 'Rural Remnants'.

Prima edizione
Paperback. 96p., line illustrations, first edition softbound in 8x6 inch glossy black wraps; slightest edgewear, entirely clean and sound, a near-fine copy. Following his quirky essay, described below, come a variety of poems, shorties and lengthies. Beake's delightful long title poem is in blank verse and is subtitled "A Poem after Homer, much of it surely influenced by Lattimore's work, except it's funnier. Linguist Beake enjoys an insular immersion in classical literature (Quixotic views of Cyclops from both Homer and Theocritus), a distaste for things Irish (in contrast to things British), and a regret that "Nihilism, Punk, and Mammon" have become acceptable (suceeding Imperial Myth).
