Description
These translations are a book length selection in English of the poetry of Robert Marteau, a distinguished contemporary French poet, novelist, and art critic. His poems have been admired in France for their richness of language and imagery, and for their densely particular rendering of the actual world. Reflecting M. Marteau's deep preoccupation with the French countryside, the poems often touch on his native Poitou and Charente, a region of woods and salt marshes, small farming villages and Romanesque churches. Originally published in 1979. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
