Sinopsis

Because the poetry of Adam Mickiewicz is so closely identified with the history of the Polish nation, one often reads him as an institution, rather than a real person. In theáCrimeanáandáErotic Sonnetsáof the national bard, we are presented with the fresh, real, and striking poetry of a living, breathing man of flesh and blood. Mickiewicz proved to be a master of Petrarchan form. HisáErotic Sonnetsáchronicle the development of a love affair from its first stirrings to its disillusioning denouement, at times in a bitingly sardonic tone. TheáCrimean Sonnets, a verse account of his journeys through the beautiful Crimean Peninsula, constitute the most perfect cycle of descriptive sonnets since du Bellay.áThe Sonnetsáof Adam Mickiewicz are given in the original Polish, in facing-page format, with English verse translations by Charles S. Kraszewski. Along with the entirety of theáCrimeanáandáErotic Sonnets, other &ldquo,loose&rdquo, sonnets by Mickiewicz are included, which provide the reader with the most comprehensive collection to date of Mickiewicz&rsquo,s sonneteering. Fronted with a critical introduction,áThe Sonnetsáof Adam Mickiewicz also contain generous textual notes by the poet and the translator.Translated from the Polish and introduced by Charles S. Kraszewski.This book has been published with the support of the ©POLAND Translation Program.Publishers Maxim Hodak & Max Mendor.
