Frank O'Hara fut une figure essentielle de la poésie américaine, célèbre pour son style conversationnel et spontané qui s'intégrait intimement à la vie quotidienne et aux arts visuels. Ses poèmes capturent fréquemment des impressions et des introspections immédiates, reflétant son profond engagement dans la scène artistique new-yorkaise. O'Hara a magistralement mêlé des thèmes profonds à une légèreté ludique, se taillant ainsi un espace unique dans le paysage littéraire.
The first new selection of O’Hara’s work to come along in several decades. In this “marvellous compilation” (The New Yorker), editor Mark Ford reacquaints us with one of the most joyous and innovative poets of the postwar period.
An edition of the Collected Poems of Frank O'Hara, who is a leading light of
the 'New York School' and one of the most significant poets of the twentieth-
century.
Available for the first time in paperback, The Collected Poems of Frank O'Hara reflects the poet's growth as an artist from the earliest dazzling experimental verses that he began writing in the late 1940s to the years before his accidental death at forty, when his poems became increasingly individual and reflective.
Frank O'Hara composed poems any time, any place, collaborating with artists,
dancers, musicians and poets. The city was a place of endless possibility, and
he captured the pace and rhythms, the quandaries and exhilarations of city
life. This selection of his work is edited by Mark Ford. schovat popis
The book presents a model of translation that explores the incarnation of Jesus Christ as the eternal Word of God made flesh. It emphasizes how the divine becomes accessible through Jesus, making the invisible visible and the inaudible audible. Central to this concept is the idea that Jesus' human heart embodies the sentiments of the Word, expressing the essence of divinity in human form. This union of humanity and divinity is articulated through Jesus' awareness of his identity as the Word, creating a profound connection between the divine and human experience.
