Seller's Description:
New York. 1970. Hawthorn Books. 1st Edition. Previous Owner's Name Penned in Front, Otherwise Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket. Illustrated by Bill Negron. 270 pages. hardcover. Jacket photo: The author (right) talking with Brazilian novelist Jorge Amado in Bahia (Photo by Bill Negron). Jacket-cover design by Bill Negron. keywords: Literature Translated Poetry Latin America. FROM THE PUBLISHER-Though connected to us physically, South America remains the least ‘discovered, ' most mysterious of the continents. It has often been described in terms of its natural wonders, and more often for its baffling political and economic flaws, but never for the glorious diversity of its cultures. And yet it is from the great South American poets and novelists of today, and the great South American sculptors and city-builders of yesterday, that our blander, better ‘organized' civilization has most to learn. And it is precisely because we have ignored those cultures that our clumsy attempts to impose our own have failed, and the idealistic image of the Good Neighbor has yielded to the ugly stereotype of the Yanqui Imperialist. No writer is better equipped to help redress this distorted perspective than Selden Rodman. As poet, anthologist, and Mexican diarist, he was among the first to call attention to the young giants of Latin American literature. As art critic, he played a key role in the ‘renaissance' of Haitian art. As political essayist and later as historian, he made friends with statesmen and revolutionaries. In SOUTH AMERICA OF THE POETS he puts these talents together for the first time to give a uniquely informal and revealing portrait of the South America the tourist, traveling salesman, and diplomat rarely see. The ‘poetry' evoked goes beyond the intimate close-ups of the famous literary figures the author visits, beyond the masterpieces of art he communes with; it is in the awesome landscapes, the historical confrontations, the indomitable inhabitants of mountain, jungle, and city slum-all embraced in grateful humility but without sacrificing the pride and prejudice of being an American. inventory #15003.
