Shiksa
ISBN: 9781936196418 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 92 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Slavitt's] sentences are so unburdened by the trivial or any kind of distraction, so transparent, that it would be too gross even to say that they are like angels in the sky. Because they don't just hang around in the sky like angels; they are the sky. They are not merely fluent, though fluency is hard to come by and something to be treasured; they flow as unhaltingly as a creek or waterfall. If I compare Slavitt's sentences to natural phenomena, it may be because he himself is rather a natural phenomenon: a man who writes easily, copiously, and beautifully. Kelly cherry, author of A Kind of...

The Book of the Twelve Prophets
ISBN: 9780195132144 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This is a glittering new translation of the portion of the Hebrew Bible known as the Book of the Twelve Prophets, or the Twelve "Minor" Prophets. In the Bible, the books of the prophets are arranged in rough order of length. The present group of writings thus appears after the so-called "major" prophets (Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel), and includes the much shorter texts of Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habbakuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi. At the time when all biblical books were written on scrolls, these twelve brief prophetic texts were traditionally...

The Lays of Marie de France
ISBN: 9781927356357 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 122 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The twelve ?lays? of Marie de France, the earliest known French woman poet, are here presented in sprightly English verse by poet and translator David R. Slavitt. Traditional Breton folktales were the raw material for Marie de France's series of lively but profound considerations of love, life, death, fidelity and betrayal, and luck and fate. They offer acute observations about the choices that women make, startling in the late twelfth century and challenging even today. Combining a woman's wisdom with an impressive technical bravura, the lays are a minor treasure of European culture.

The Seven Deadly Sins and Other Poems
ISBN: 9780807134030 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In The Seven Deadly Sins and Other Poems, veteran poet David R. Slavitt touches on topics from the mundane to the mysterious with his signature wit and intelligence. In "Stupid," for instance, he transforms a simple head cold into an appreciation for the richness of consciousness, and in "Waking," the very effort of rising from bed becomes something like a miracle: "I heave myself up to a sitting position, pause / a moment, and am amazed by what I have done...." Slavitt explores the range of the human condition with such ease and insight that readers cannot help but ponder what life is --... In The Seven Deadly Sins and Other Poems, veteran poet David R.

The Metamorphoses of Ovid
ISBN: 9780801847981 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The mark of success in a poet's career, writes David Slavitt, was an epic that might stand on the shelf alongside Virgil's. But how was a poet like Ovid, with a more intimate, livelier, funnier and more self-mocking sensibility, to attempt such a thing? The epic form was not, I think, immediately congenital, and my guess is that Ovid recognized this himself. Accordingly, he transformed the epic, playing against its grain a lot of the time, and escaping its severe organizational and thematic demands by transforming it into something altogether different. The first metamorphosis, then, is of...

Eight Longer Poems
ISBN: 9780807115985 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 56 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. David R. Slavitt brings together eight poems that deal largely with the mind's relation to history--personal history, and the history of myth and of empires. In addressing these two seemingly independent modes of thinking and remembering, Slavitt reveals that they are in fact closely related, and that they are both part of our poetic consciousness.
