Reseña del editor

Celebrating the art of the poet-translator, this pioneering anthology shows how the very heart of the English tradition has been sustained and enriched by translation over the centuries. The three editors have gathered together supreme examples of this art, poems that sing out on the most pressing of human concerns with all the conviction of two voices speaking as one.
