The first publication of Celans work in English was in Lawrence Ferlinghettis Pocket Poet Series: <em>New Young German Poets</em> (1959), edited by Jerome Rothenberg.</li><li>The last book in English by Paul Celan, <em>Breathturn into Timestead: The Collected Later Poetry</em> was published by FSG in 2014.</li><li>This book uniquely offers pathways into sharingand learning fromthe experience of one of Frances greatest contemporary poets, as he moves back in time towards his early understanding <em>of</em> his poetic vocation via a burgeoning friendship and work-relationship with one of the greatest poets of the 20th century.</li><li>This book offers the unique experience of one of todays great elder poets (on the international scene) retellingin the manner of a poet, of coursehow probably the most important poet to emerge from the shadows of the Nazi genocide offered, and still offers us, invaluable insight into how and why poetic art matters to those grappling with recent historical and political catastropheand to those hoping to prevent its recurrences, in the era of Trump, Bolsonaro, Salvini, Modi, Erdogan, and others.</li><li>What probably makes it <em>most</em> unique for us today is thatfinding its place in the ongoing publication of personal memoirs about the historical reception of the Holocaust and its aftermaths, <em>and</em> among the publication of memoirs about artistic apprenticeships, <em>this</em> book melds the two. It does so by offering a telling that, in form and content, is at once lucid and haunting: for it gives us the story of perhaps <em>the</em> poet to emerge from the ashes, and likewise the story of what that poet and his work has to tell us about artand about lifesince then and, above all, <em>today</em>.</li><li>Events in SF, LA, NY, Chicago</li></ul>(*_*)9780872868120_<p><strong>An arresting memoir of the final years and tragic suicide of one of twentieth-century Europes greatest poets, published on the centenary of his birth.</strong></p><p>"Daives memoir sensitively conjures a portrait of a man tormented by both his mind and his medical treatment but who nonetheless remained a generous friend and a poet for whom writing was a matter of life and death."<em><strong>The New Yorker</strong></em></p><p>"Jean Daives memoir of his brief but intense spell as confidant and poetic confrre of Paul Celan offers us unique access to the mind and personality of one of the great poets of the dark twentieth century."<strong>J.M. Coetzee</strong></p><p>Paul Celan (19201970) is considered one of Europes greatest post-World-War II poets, known for his astonishing experiments in poetic form, expression, and address. <em>Under the Dome</em> is French poet Jean Daives haunting memoir of his friendship with Celan, a precise yet elliptical account of their daily meetings, discussions, and walks through Paris, a routine that ended suddenly when Celan committed suicide by drowning himself in the Seine. Daives grief at the loss of his friend finds expression in <em>Under the Dome</em>, where we are given an intimate insight into Celans last years, at the height of his poetic powers, and as he approached the moment when he would succumb to the debilitating emotional pain of a Holocaust survivor.</p><p>In <em>Under the Dome,</em> Jean Daive illuminates Celans process of thinking about poetry, grappling with questions of where it comes from and what it does: invaluable insights about poetrys relation to history and ethics, and how poems offer pathways into a deeper grasp of our past and present. This new edition of Rosmarie Waldrops masterful translation includes an introduction by scholars Robert Kaufman and Philip Gerard, which provides critical, historical, and cultural context for Daives enigmatic, timeless text.</p><p><em>"Under the Dome</em> breathes with Celan while walking with Celan, walking in the dark and the light with Celan, invoking the stillness, the silence, of the <em>breathturn</em> while speaking for the deeply human necessity of poetry."<strong>Michael Palmer</strong>, author of <em>The Laughter of the Sphinx</em></p><p>"The fragments textured together in this more-than-magnificent rendering of Jean Daives prose poem by this master of the word, Rosmarie Waldrop, grab on and leave us haunted and speechless."<strong>Mary Ann Caws</strong>, author of <em>Creative Gatherings: Meeting Places of Modernism</em> and editor of the <em>Yale Anthology of Twentieth Century French Poetry</em></p><p>"Rosmarie Waldrops brilliant translation resonates with her profound knowledge of both Celans and Daives poetry and the passion for language that she shares with them. The text brings these three major poets together in a highly unusual and wholly successful collaboration."<strong>Cole Swensen</strong>, author of <em>On Walking On</em></p><p>"Rosmarie Waldrop takes up Celans question to Jean Daive as her own. I cannot unread her inimitable ease in these pages. This is a book that contends with time."<strong>Fady Joudah</strong>, author of <em>Footnotes in the Order of Disappearance</em></p><p>"Daives writing is a highly punctuated recollection, a memoir, perhaps a testimony, but also surely a way of attending to the time of the writing, the conditions and coordinates of Celans various enunciations, his linguistic humility. Celans death, what Daive calls really unforeseeable, remains as an undercurrent in the conversations recollected here, gathered up again, with an insistence and clarity of true mourning and acknowledgement."<strong>Judith Butler</strong>, author of <em>The Force of Nonviolence</em></p>...9780872868120_City Lights Publisherslibro_electonico_8a3d1ec7-b8f8-32fa-a9ab-cf72b1e2e2c1_9780872868120;9780872868120_9780872868120Jean DaiveInglésMéxicohttps://getbook.kobo.com/koboid-prod-public/ingram50-epub-2f5bbc12-a839-4e16-a47f-e7ba99b1abe1.epub2020-11-03T00:00:00+00:00City Lights Publishers
