Visor libros, S.L. Los talleres del tiempo
La poesía de Carlos Germán Belli (Lima, 1927), es una de las mejores convergencías de la exploración moderna de la tradición poética y la crítica de la realidad depredada contemporánea. Con los emblemas, figuras y tópicos de la tradición española del verso y la métrica petrarquizante, Belli analiza los dramas del menoscabo y la carencia del habitante de la urbe subdesarrollada; y lo hace apelando a los repertorios tecnológicos, al habla popular, a las jergas periodíticas; con inteligencia formal y pasión comunicativa su obra ha crecido como una de las más características respuestas del arte nuestro a la desigualdad de todo orden. >>

Swan Isle Press The Azure Cloister – Thirty–Five Poems
New translations of poems by prominent Peruvian poet Carlos Germán Belli. This selection of poems by internationally renowned Peruvian poet Carlos Germán Belli tempers a dark, ironic vision of worldly injustice with the “red midnight sun” of hope. Belli’s contemplative verses express faith in language, in bodily joy, and in artistic form. These thirty-five poems explore public and domestic spaces of confinement and freedom, from paralysis to the ease of a bird in its “azure cloister.” Translations by Karl Maurer retain Belli’s original meter, follow his complex syntax, and meet the challenges of his poetic language, which ranges from colloquial Peruvian slang to the ironic use of seventeenth-century Spanish. This bilingual edition also includes notes and reflections on Belli and on the art of translation. Beyond introducing American readers to a major presence in world poetry, The Azure Cloister offers a fresh approach to the translation of contemporary verse in Spanish.
