Publisher Description: Mariani has emerged as one of the few significant post-Montalian poets in Italy, and Molino is a graceful, experienced, thoroughly reliable translator. The result is an elegant book, an important book, bringing a distinctive voice into English.--Rosanna Warren Culled from his entire career, the poems in Traces of Time cover numerous themes, most prominently the poet's relationship to history and how poetry can exist outside of it. Tiananmen, 20 Years Later, Protocols of War, and Checkmate (about 9/11) all illustrate Lucio Mariani's concerns through images both dense and porous, lines both cadenced and spasmodic, and confirm his place in contemporary poetry. Protocols of War Of this time you'll gather no memories Lucio Mariani is the author of eight volumes of poetry, including Echoes of Memory (available in English from UPNE), as well as a volume of essays, a collection of short stories, and translations of works by C sar Vallejo, Tristan Corbi re, and Yves Bonnefoy. Anthony Molino is a translator from the Italian, an anthropologist, and a psychoanalyst. In addition to Lucio Mariani's two volumes, he has also translated works by Valerio Magrelli and Antonio Porta, among others. |
