Born from the cultural ferment of thirteenth- century Florence, Cavalcanti’s poetry is an extraordinary blend of unorthodox philosophy, sharp psychological insight and dazzling formal mastery. Anthony Mortimer, acclaimed for his versions of Petrarch and Michelangelo, provides a new verse translation complete with notes, critical comment and biographical material: following in the footsteps of Rossetti and Pound, he presents a Cavalcanti who speaks for his own time and to ours.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: Poetry & DramaRelease Year: 2012 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
