Lyrics to Love
Author: Rabindranath Tagore
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
Lyrics to Love is an impressive compilation of Rabindranath Tagore's poetry, masterfully translated into English by Amitabha Basu. What sets this 101-poem collection apart from other translated works is his ardent focus on highlighting the lyrical rhythms and patterns Tagore created in his original that evokes such feeling. The nuances of Tagore's expressions - of love, hope, passion, senses and sensibilities - are all elegantly and meticulously captured in the translations in this book. Basu's work aims to bring forth awareness of one of the world's most revered poets. Rabindranath Tagore won the Nobel Prize in 1913 for Literature, though many have never read his translations from the original Bengali. The readers will enjoy this collection - an excellent and highly aesthetic work. It is a welcome arrival for the literary enthusiasts of the English-speaking world, always interested in reading Tagore's work but unable due to a lack of good translation. These translations reflect not only mastery of both the languages, English and Bengali, but also intimate familiarity of the translator with the inherent culture embedded in the original writings of Tagore. This familiarity enables him to uniquely and faithfully capture nuances so difficult to convey in ordinary translations. Amitabha Basu is a professor of Bengali at the University of California, Berkeley and formerly at Stanford University.

"Many a Song and Many a Leccherous Lay"
Author: Jay Ruud
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000681394
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 254
Book Description
Originally published in 1992. Although they were apparently much appreciated in his own time, Chaucer’s lyrics have for most of the modern era been the most neglected of his poetic productions. This work offers a comprehensive overview of Chaucer’s lyric corpus. The author extends his scope to include in-depth discussions of literary and cultural influences that have their impact on Chaucer’s lyrics. Students who come to Chaucer’s poems for the first time will here receive an excellent introduction to each poem, the important literary issues surrounding the poem as defined by previous scholarship, and Ruud’s own clear style and balanced judgment. The persuasive proofs for Chaucer’s lyric innovations and his special style of poetry will also be of interest to Chaucerian specialist academics. The book traces Chaucer’s development as a lyric poet, from more conventional early works to more individualized later ones.
