The selected poetry of Guido Cavalcanti

"The Selected Poetry of Guido Cavalcanti: A Critical English Edition aims to combine the most recent scholarly work on the poet with the best translations available in order to make Cavalcanti more accessible to an English speaking audience." "The book includes verse translations of a selection of the best of the poet's work, including the important 'Donna me prega' and the correspondence sonnets to Dante. The selection has been arranged in seven thematic groupings. Each translation is accompanied by a short introduction and detailed annotations containing stimulating contextual information on Cavalcanti and his poetry and a discussion of difficulties encountered in the translation process." "A general introduction includes a discussion of key thematic and metrical issues as well as examining in detail the history of Cavalcanti in English."--Jacket.
