P. Cavafy (1863-1933) is the most important figure in twentieth-century Greek poetry, and his poems are considered among the most powerful in modern European literature. Edmund Keeley and Philip Sherrard's celebrated English translation of Cavafy's collected poems captures the poet's mixture of formal and idiomatic language, the immediacy of his frank treatment of homoeroticism, his brilliant re-creation of history, and his astute political ironies. This English-only volume is a classic of modern poetry.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEdmund Keeley\u003c\/b\u003e (1928-2022) was the Charles Barnwell Straut Class of 1923 Professor of English, emeritus, and professor emeritus of creative writing at Princeton University. \u003cb\u003ePhilip Sherrard \u003c\/b\u003e(1922-1995) was lecturer in the history of the Orthodox Church at King's College London. \u003cb\u003eGeorge Savidis\u003c\/b\u003e (1929-1995) was professor of modern Greek literature at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and the George Seferis Professor of Modern Greek Studies at Harvard University.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 304\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.68 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 05, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51773418242336,"sku":"9780691264646","price":20.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/de09946cb95f1c5fc0175f9391c181ad_d21ce8b3-7336-452e-88b7-09a859594e59.webp?v=1780426641","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/c-p-cavafy-collected-poems-revised-edition-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
