A phenomenonally precicious schoolboy, Rimbaud was still a teenager when he became notorious as Europe's most shocking and exhilarating poet. During his brief 5-year reign as the enfant terrible of French literature he produced an extraordinary body of poems that range from the exquisite to the obsene, while simultaneously living a life of dissolute excess with his lover and fellow poet, Verlaine. At the age of 21, he abandonned poetry and travelled across Europe before settling in Africa as an arms trader. This edition sets the two sides of Rimbaud side by side with a sparkling translation of his most exhilarating poetry and a generous selection of the letters from the harsh and colourful period of his life as a colonial trader.

August Strindberg (1849-1912) was one of the great innovators of modern drama as well as a novelist, poet, and master of the Swedish language. In this collection, Selected Poems of August Strindberg, editor and translator Lotta M. Lofgren has chosen poems from all three volumes of Strindberg's verse -- Poems in Verse and Prose, Sleepwalking Nights on Awake Days, and Word Play and Minor Art -- to illustrate to the English-speaking reader the development, strengths, and versatility of Strindberg the poet. Lofgren explains, "Although August Strindberg is internationally acknowledged as a pioneering realist, expressionist, and surrealist playwright, his poetry is still relatively unknown outside Sweden. The only English translation of [his] poems to date is the 1978 translation of Sleepwalking Nights by Arvid Paulson ... that gives an incomplete and misleading picture of Strindberg's poetry." Lofgren's translation seeks to correct that picture. Strindberg's stature as a dramatist alone may be adequate justification for offering a translation of his verse, but his poetry stands well on its own. All three volumes broke new ground and paved the way for younger generations of poets. Lofgren hopes that her translation will not only introduce Strindberg's verse to English-speaking readers but will also inspire other scholars to revisit his poetry and give it the attention it deserves. Selected Poems of August Strindberg received the American-Scandinavian Foundation's Translation Prize

Excerpt from Selected Poems, Old and New The Religion of Humanity has for some time been out of print, and many of the poems published in that book have, through the courtesy of Messrs. Rivington, become a part of the present volume. Special thanks are due to Messrs. A. D. Innes and Co., for permitting the inclusion of several lyrics from Love Triumphant; and to Messrs. Sampson Low, Marston and Co., for the extracts from Love's Music, as well as to Messrs. Macmillan and Co., Messrs. Isbister and Co., to the proprietors of the Oxford Magazine, the Spectator, and others. A few of the poems have not appeared before. The sonnets 'For Dreyfus, ' having been written in eager indignation and sympathy while this book was actually passing through the press, are possibly too much touched by the heat and passion of the moment, and hardly give enough honour to those true sons and daughters of France who have, by stupendous effort and at immeasurable sacrifice and risk, done their utmost to right a great wrong.

A fresh and very readable translation of the world's greatest Sanskrit writer, Kalidasa ""Kalidasa(circa fourth century CE) is widely regarded as the greatest poet and dramatist in the Sanskrit language. Not much is known with certainty about his life and though many are aware of his timeless Sakuntalam and Meghadutam, very few have actually read him, even in translation. The aesthetics of poetry may have changed over 1500 years - we no longer compare women's faces to lotuses or their figures to vines - but it is difficult not to be moved by the sheer beauty and lyricism of Kalidasa's description of the exiled yak?a beseeching a cloud to carry his message across the mountains to his lover, or his evocative narration of the meeting of doomed lovers in the forest."" ""Mani Rao's supple, contemporary translation removes the distance between Kalidasa and the modern reader, she helps 'read' the poetry for us while remaining loyal to the text. "" ""Selections from all seven of the great poet's works (which are considered by Sanskrit scholars to be authentically his creations) are included in this volume- Meghad?tam, Kumarasambhavam and ?tusa?h?ram, he heroic exploits narrated in Raghuva?sam which gives us a remarkable picture of ancient India, as well as the celebrated dramas Abhijnãna Sakuntalam, Vikramorvasiyam and Malavikagnimitram. This is a translation that belongs to today, Kalidasa renewed""

Robert Manns' Selected Poems is comprised of two large poems and a number of smaller verses of various forms that recount is happy, sometimes frustrated, years of bachelor-hood. By a Turning Root is his invasion of several classical forms and a very sound illustration of the poet as visionary. Pygmalion and Galatea was first produced by Lucille Lortel at the White Barn Theatre in Westport and clearly signals an early influence by England's Christopher Fry. The sculptor makes a statue, then falls in love with it. That's transcendental love. When the statue comes to life, she's interested in more than love in that form. The comedy investigates Pygmalion's paradoxes.
