Very Good in Dustjacket With Internal Water Stain At the Bottom Spine. 0691063818. Preliminary Remarks. Notes & Comments by Nina Berberova. Translated from the Russian by Gerald Janecek. 164 pages. hardcover. Jacket illustration - Andrey Bely, circa 1912. keywords: Europe Russia Literature Translated World Literature. DESCRIPTION - First published in Russian in 1921 and never translated, Andrey Bely's long narrative poem - considered to be one of the great achievements of Russian Modernism - is now available in English. A poet, critic, philosopher, and novelist, Bely was a leading figure among the Russian Symbolists, and The First Encounter is thought to be his greatest work in verse. The poem is autobiographical and reflects turn-of-the-century Moscow with its mixture of entrenched positivism and new spiritualistic trends, cultural variety and the upheaval of the time. Its difficulty and the novelty of its prosodic elements, imagery, syntax, and vocabulary have fostered a comparison with some of the work of James Joyce. As translator, Gerald Janecek aims first at literal accuracy, and gives subsequent attention to iambic meter, word repetition, and rhyme and soundplay. In his introduction he discusses the poem's significance and its Russian-language structure, rhythm, rhyme, and imagery. Supplementing this introduction and the translation, Nina Berberova's commentary illuminates the semantic, linguistic, and poetic nuances of the text while conveying a real sense of the poem as an oral performance. inventory #13154 Very Good in Dustjacket With Internal Water Stain At the Bottom Spine.…
