Item description from seller

XIII, 95 p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Einband leicht berieben, kleinere Anhaftungen auf Cover, sonst ein sehr gutes Exemplar / binding slightly rubbed, minor adhesions on cover, otherwise a very good copy. - Where Were We Now is as fresh and as lively as anything you would expect from Cid Corman. These essays touch on the art of translation, on the art of poetry and writing, on the paintings of da Vinci and Rembrandt. The tone is conversationalas if sitting with Corman in his home in Kyoto, Japan, discussing the unique qualities of a mandarin orange or the vision of Leonardo. Corman rounds out this collection with a postscript of twenty-five poems. / Contents I The Sense of Poetry Preface 1 Wen Fu: Essay on Poetry 2 Staying with It 3 Seymour Chatmans A Theory of Meter 4 The Act of Poetry 5 The Conscience of Poetry 6 The Feeling in the Make of Poetry II The Sense of Art 7 Leonardos Vision 8 Seeing Into and Seeing Through 9 Facing Rembrandt Ill The Sense of Life 10 Reflections 11 Speaking with Stones 12 The Idea of a Mandarin Orange 13 Evil 14 The Train 15 The Secondhand Book Postscriptum 1 Concluding 2 Lyce 3 The Basho Story 4 Santoka 5 Anon 6 Crito 7 Cura 8 The Posthumous 9 Giuseppe 10 The Metaphysician 11 Up to my ears 12 Wellif it isnt today 13 The Words and the Wisdom 14 Meeting 15 One Day 16 Beforehand 17 Documentary 18 The Cop 19 Getting into the Jazz 20 Post 21 Jizo 22 No matter how much 23 Walking and dancing 24 Peril 25 The father.
