Helen in Egypt: Poetry
ISBN: 9780811205443 / Angielski / Miękka / 1974 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The fabulous beauty of Helen of Troy is legendary. But some say that Helen was never in Troy, that she had been conveyed by Zeus to Egypt, and that Greeks and Trojans alike fought for an illusion. A fifty-line fragment by the poet Stesichorus of Sicily (c. 640-555 B.C.), what survives of his Pallinode, tells us almost all we know of this other Helen, and from it H. D. wove her book-length poem. Yet Helen in Egypt is not a simple retelling of the Egyptian legend but a recreation of the many myths surrounding Helen, Paris, Achilles, Theseus, and other figures of Greek tradition, fused with the...

Although the manuscript survived, it has remained unpublished since its completion in the 1920s. Regarded by many as one of the major poets of the modernist period, H.D. created in "Asphodel" a remarkable and readable experimental prose text, which in its manipulation of technique and voice can stand with the works of Joyce, Woolf, and Stein; in its frank exploration of lesbian desire, pregnancy and motherhood, artistic independence for women, and female experience during wartime, H.D.'s novel stands...

ISBN: 9780811209717 / Angielski / Miękka / 1986 / 672 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Of special significance are the -Uncollected and Unpublished Poems (1912-1944), - the third section of the book, written mainly in the 1930s, during H. D.'s supposed -fallow- period.
