Paperback. Zustand: New. This collection explores how anthologizers and editors of Edgar Allan Poe play an integral role in shaping our conceptions of Poe as the author we have come to recognize, revere, and critique today. In the spheres of literature and popular culture, Poe wields more global influence than any other U.S. author. This influence, however, cannot be attributed solely to the quality of Poe's texts or to his compellingly tragic biography. Rather, his continued prominence as a writer owes much to the ways that Poe has been interpreted, portrayed, and packaged by an extensive group of mediators ranging from anthologizers, editors, translators, and fellow writers to literary critics, filmmakers, musicians, and illustrators. In this volume, the work of presenting Poe's texts for public consumption becomes a fascinating object of study in its own right, one that highlights the powerful and often overlooked influence of those who have edited, anthologized, translated, and adapted the author's writing over the past 170 years.

Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. Edgar Allan Poes image and import shifted during the twentieth century, and this shift is clearly connected to the work of three writers from the Rio de la Plata region of South AmericaUruguayan Horacio Quiroga and Argentines Jorge Luis Borges and Julio Cortazar. In Borgess Poe, Emron Esplin focuses on the second author in this trio and argues that Borges, through a sustained and complex literary relationship with Poes works, served as the primary catalyst that changed Poes image throughout Spanish America from a poet-prophet to a timeless fiction writer.Most scholarship that couples Poe and Borges focuses primarily on each writers detective stories, refers only occasionally to their critical writings and the remainder of their fiction, and deemphasizes the cultural context in which Borges interprets Poe. In this book, Esplin explores Borgess and Poes published works and several previously untapped archival resources to reveal an even more complex literary relationship between the two writers. Emphasizing the spatial and temporal context in which Borges interprets Poethe Rio de la Plata region from the 1920s through the 1980sBorgess Poe underlines Poes continual presence in Borgess literary corpus. More important, it demonstrates how Borgess literary criticism, his Poe translations, and his own fiction create a disparate Poe who serves as a precursor to Borgess own detective and fantastic stories and as an inspiration to the so-called Latin American Boom.Seen through this more expansive context, Borgess Poe shows that literary influence runs both ways since Poes writings visibly affect Borges the poet, story writer, essayist, and thinker while Borgess analyses and translations of Poes work and his responses to Poes texts in his own fiction forever change how readers of Poe return to his literary corpus. Esplin argues that Borges, through a sustained and complex literary relationship with Poes works, served as the primary catalyst that changed Poes image throughout Spanish America from a poet-prophet to a timeless fiction writer.

It has been called the "libro del año" (book of the year) and has been widely reviewed, including by James Woodall in TLS.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Few, if any, U.S. writers are as important to the history of world literature as Edgar Allan Poe, and few, if any, U.S. authors owe so much of their current reputations to the process of translation. Translated Poe brings together 31 essays from 19 different national/literary traditions to demonstrate Poe's extensive influence on world literature and thought while revealing the importance of the vehicle that delivers Poe to the world-translation.Translated Poe is not preoccupied with judging the "quality" of any given Poe translation nor with assessing what a specific translation of Poe must or should have done. Rather, the volume demonstrates how Poe's translations constitute multiple contextual interpretations, testifying to how this prolific author continues to help us read ourselves and the world(s) we live in. The examples of how Poe's works were spread abroad remind us that literature depends as much on authorial creation and timely readership as on the languages and worlds through which a piece of literature circulates after its initial publication in its first language. This recasting of signs and symbols that intervene in other cultures when a text is translated is one of the principal subjects of the humanistic discipline of Translation Studies, dealing with the products, functions, and processes of translation as both a cognitive and socially regulated activity. Both literary history and the history of translation benefit from this book's focus on Poe, whose translated fortune has helped to shape literary modernity, in many cases importantly redefining the target literary systems. Furthermore, we envision this book as a fountain of resources for future Poe scholars from various global sites, including the United States, since the cases of Poe's translations-both exceptional and paradigmatic-prove that they are also levers that force the reassessment of the source text in its native literature.
