In his foreword to Stone Lyre, Nancy Naomi Carlson's previous collection of René Char translations, Ilya Kaminsky praised "the intensity, the dream-like language, the gravity of tone, and the constant impression that one is reading not words in the language, but sparks of flames."Stone Lyre was a selection of poems from Char's numerous volumes of poems; Carlson's new Hammer with No Master is a discrete and continuous work, the first English translation of Char's Le marteau sans maître, first published in 1934 - a time of rumbling menace that our time resembles.
Collects the poems that explore various paths of life, from that of an ardent lover and a mystic to a cosmic pastoralist responsive to the presences of the natural world, and contain a spirit of defiant freedom.
Poetry. Bilingual Edition. Translated from the French by Nancy Naomi Carlson. "Early Surrealist, resistance fighter, anti-nuclear activist, and exquisite poet, Rene Char is at the heart of 20th century French poetry.... Carlson gives English-language readers a real sense of Char's depth and breadth. And her masterful translations catch the barely contained drama that gives Char's work such tension and presence"--Cole Swensen.
The Selected Poems of René Char is a comprehensive, bilingual overview reflecting the poet's wide stylistic and philosophical range, from aphorism to dramatic lyricism. In making their selections, the editors have chosen the voices of seventeen poets and translators (Paul Auster, Samuel Beckett, Cid Corman, Eugene Jolas, W.S. Merwin, William Carlos Williams, and James Wright, to name a few), in homage to a writer long held in highest esteem by the literary avant-garde.
Rene Char (1907-88) is considered the most important French poet of his generation. A tribute to the individual men and women who fought at his side, this book is also a celebration of the power of art to combat terror and to transform our lives.
