Book Description
Poetry. Translated from the Romanian by many hands. Edited by Paul Doru Mugar with Adam J. Sorkin and Claudia Serea. The poetry included in this volume reflects the alienation and the crisis of communication brought by the so-called 'transition' period of the last twenty years in Romania from the beginning of the post-communist period in 1990 to the close of the first decade of the twenty-first century. This twenty-year span was defined not only by uncertainty and fears, social inequities and misery, but also by both an enthusiasm and a hope for the future that the recent inclusion of Romania in the European Union made real.--from the introduction by Paul Doru Mugur This anthology includes poems by Cristian Popescu, Iaon Es. Pop, Mihai Gălăţanu, Daniel Bănulescu, Floarea Ţuţuianu, Radu Andriescu, Simona Popescu, Emilian Galaicu-Păun, Ruxandra Cesereanu, O.

Book Description
Poetry. Translated from the Romanian by many hands. Firan and Mugur provide generous selections of works in English translation by Tudor Arghezi, Lucian Blaga, Tristan Tzara, Benjamin Fundoianu, Gellu Naum, Paul Celan, Nina Cassian, Andrei Codrescu, Mircea Cortrescu, and nearly sixty other Romanian poets from the late nineteenth century to the present. BORN IN UTOPIA surveys one of the world's great poetries but one that until now has been little known in the United States. "Romanians, whether in the depths of the Transylvanian provinces or in the better parts of Manhattan, respond to the word 'poetry' with a straightening of the shoulders, a chin-forward movement, and a far-away gaze. 'We may not be sure of many things, ' they say with that rearrangement of the body, 'but we are sure of our poetry.'" from the Introduction by Andrei Codrescu "The best Romanian literature is its poetry." from the Afterword by Virgil Nemoianu"

Book Description
This anthology of contemporary poets of Cluj-Napoca represents a strong, varied tradition, as varied as the changeable weather in the Transylvanian city of Cluj-Napoca. Recent Romanian poetry has been shaped by many factors in the 20th century. These include not only the four-decade-long Babylonian captivity of communism, which ended with the revolution of December 1989, but also the influence of powerful creative sensibilities through the voices of important literary personages. In part, communism impeded poetic achievement, not only by its restructions in style and theme (especially during the decade and a half, from the late-1940s until the mid-1960s), but also by its interruption of contact with European modernism, in which the writers of this geographically marginal culture had been a central, avant-garde presence. But in part, communist control also unintentionally served as a bracing tonic, a goad to poetic inventiveness and the natural ingenuity, indirectness and metaphorical and ironical obliqueness of the art, forcing poets -- who after the relatively relaxed period of the late-1960s faced a tightened, changing, but never totally restrictive censorship -- to find ways around the regime's prohibitions and follies. If nothing else, the totalitarian experience raised poetry to a central importance as witness to the spiritual terrors and material deprivations of the police state and as an essential participant in the resistance of the human psyche to denial of its integrity and its freedom. Adam J Sorkin is co-author of 'The Sky Behind the Forest', which was the Poetry Book Society Recommended selection in the translation category.

Book Description
Poetry has always been an essential aspect of cultural expression in Romania. One will find few countries where poetry has been such a force both culturally and politically. This volume fills an important gap as it is the first to attempt to present systematically some of the most important Romanian women poets of the past two centuries. For too long their contribution has been under-appreciated. This anthology is an effort to correct this oversight and to make their work known to an international audience. The selections in this volume represent several generations of poets, from Veronica Micle and Matilda Cugler-Poni in the nineteenth century, to Magda Isanos in the inter-war period, to such important contemporary poets as Ana Blandiana and Daniela Crasnaru, and younger poets such as Mariana Marin and Carmen Veronica Steiciuc.

Book Description
Poetry. Bilingual Edition. Edited and translated from the Romanian by Martin Woodside. Amidst a history of upheaval, from Roman subjugation to the fall of communism in 1989, Romania's fostered a persevering spirit and a strong poetic tradition. "Every Romanian is born a poet," goes a popular idiom, and OF GENTLE WOLVES: AN ANTHOLOGY OF ROMANIAN POETRY aims to bring the very best of the country's contemporary poets together in a single volume. "This dedicated anthology is a dynamic and exciting reflection of the voices from contemporary Romania, led by transgressive poems by the father of Romanian surrealism, Gellu Naum. With a slightly different pitch of voice, and a slightly different angle of imagination, these poems offer a journey into the poetry you won't find elsewhere."—Valzhyna Mort "OF GENTLE WOLVES: the paradox of this book's title runs with artful power through every subsequent page. It's a vibrant, chaotic place these days, Romania, and its poets are working at breakneck speed to make up for decades—for centuries—of damage, repression, and silence. Here are Gellu Naum's lyric histories set alongside Chris Tanasescu's hyperactive polyphonies; here the 'helplessness' and 'home' of Angela Marinescu's urgent lyrics serve as counterpoint to the formal dignities (and indignities) of Leonid Dimov. But these juxtapositions are truly Romania itself: ancient mountains-and-plains landscapes yielding to shattered urban hubs; endless political narratives of conquest and recovery; a language bearing the stamp of countless travelers-through from the Romans to the Turks and Russians. Martin Woodside has given us an astute new glimpse into the place. OF GENTLE WOLVES is the best introduction to recent Romanian poetry I know."—David Baker

Book Description
Poets in Romania and in Ireland have been drawn deeply into the social and political lives of their countries. During the Ceaucescu years in Romania it was the poets who dared to transmit covert messages of protest, and during the December 1989 Revolution many of them risked their lives on the streets. In Ireland, poets gave voice to the sentiments of the independence movement early in this century and during recent years their work has been read for insights on the violent sectarian divisions in the North. There have been many contacts between poets of the two countries both before and after 1989. Bloodaxe published Marin Sorescu's Biggest Egg in the World in 1986 based on translations inspired by his contacts with poets in Belfast. With the new freedom of communication, poets have been corresponding and sometimes meeting together for translation sessions in Romania and Ireland. This Bloodaxe anthology of contemporary Romanian poetry is the outcome of a strangely imaginative collaboration between poets from these two countries on either fringe of the new Europe.Ten leading Irish poets have produced their own distinctive versions of poems by ten leading Romanian poets. A companion volume of translations of the Irish poets by their Romanian partners was published by Univers in Bucharest. The poets matched are:Ciaran Carson * Stefan Augustin DoinasSeamus Heaney * Ana BlandianaBrendan Kennelly * Mircea DinescuMichael Longley * Ileana MalancioiuThomas McCarthy * Daniela CrasnaruMedbh McGuckian * Mircea CartarescuDerek Mahon * Cezar BaltagPaula Meehan * Mihai UrsachiPaul Muldoon * Marin SorescuEiléan NÍ Chuilleanáin * Denisa Comanescu
