Guillaume Apollinaire (Author),
Anne Hyde Greet (Translator),
S. I. Lockerbie (Introduction by)
This fully annotated bilingual edition of Calligrammes makes available a key work not only in Apollinaire’s own development but also in the evolution of modern French poetry. Apollinaire–Roman by birth, Polish by name (Wilhelm-Apollinaris de Kostrowitski), Parisian by choice–died at thirty-eight in 1918. Nevertheless, he became one of the leading figures in twentieth-century poetry, a transitional figure whose work at once echoes the Symbolists and anticipates the work of the Surrealists.
