Beskrivning

A collection of thirty commented poems of contemporary Chilean poet David Rosenmann-Taub, David Rosenmann-Taub: Poems and Commentaries continues Kenneth Gorfkle’s exposition of the poet’s work in English as well as in his native language. Although critics have widely acclaimed Rosenmann-Taub for the depth and brilliance of his work, the complexity of the poetry has hindered its reception by the public at large. Gorfkle’s commentaries enable the reader to understand this complex poetry; except for the poet’s own explanations in his books Quince and GLOSA they are unique in their effort to bring the substance of Rosenmann-Taub’s work to light. This volume focuses even more narrowly on his poetic philosophy of consciousness, examining this all-important concern from a wide variety of angles.

Recensioner i media

“The poetry of David Rosenmann-Taub selected in this book is demanding, rigorous, and a type of synthesis that I would dare to call intimidating. Kenneth Gorfkle successfully translates these arduous demands from Spanish into English. They are accompanied by a brief commentary as if the translator had intended to talk with readers softly; whisper to them, if you will, the indispensable meaning and uniqueness that Rosenmann-Taub’s have in Spanish.” — Marcelo Rioseco, University of Oklahoma
