Book First Edition
Brossura. Condition: buono. Dust Jacket Condition: molto buono. prima edizione. Tradizione e modernità, raffinatezza e violenza, culto di un passato pionieristico e proiezione verso il futuro, sono i poli opposti e irriducibilmente attivi della storia tutta contemporanea, si può dire, sin dalle sue non lontane origini della poesia statunitense. Come ricorda Carlo Izzo nell'introduzione a questa antologia, i primi lirici di lingua inglese che possano definirsi, in senso proprio, americani, scrissero le loro opere dopo i primi decenni del secolo scorso. Da allora, e nello spazio di poco più di cent'anni, personalità varie e potenti a cominciare da E.A. Poe e da Walt Whitman, per continuare con Emily Dickinson, Lee Masters, Frost, Sandburg, ecc. hanno contribuito a fare della poesia statunitense un nitido microcosmo nel quale si riflettono vitalità e lacerazioni, ricchezza e contrasti d'una realtà sociale fra le più fertili, drammatiche e inquietanti che l'umanità abbia mai conosciuto. Molteplici e discordanti, le voci dei poeti presenti in questa raccolta testimoniano, tuttavia, di una sottile, implicita coerenza: quella che nasce dalla fedeltà integrale al proprio destino di uomini e ai legami che uniscono tale destino a un tempo, a un ambiente, a un paesaggio. L'americanità è, insomma, l'humus sotterraneo che avvicina e rende paradossalmente fraterni alcuni dei più prestigiosi esponenti della poesia colta del nostro tempo da Pound a Eliot, da Cummings a William Carlos Williams, da Allen Tate a Robert Lowell e gli anonimi cantori negri degli spirituals e dei blues.
