Contact seller5-star sellerdj. First Edition. First Edition. Very Good book in a Good dust jacket. "The Persimmon Tree: New Pastoral and Lyrical Poems" by Peter Viereck is a collection of poetry that blends classical themes with modern insight. Published in 1956, the book reflects Viereck's unique poetic voice-philosophical, ironic, and deeply rooted in h…istory and nature. About the Book: ? Genre: Poetry ? Style: Pastoral, lyrical, intellectual ? Themes: o Nature and landscape (especially the symbolic and literal role of the persimmon tree) o Humanism and history o Political and philosophical reflection o Irony and classical allusion ? About the Author: Peter Viereck (1916-2006) was a Pulitzer Prize-winning poet and a prominent historian and political thinker. His poetry often bridges traditional poetic form with contemporary and sometimes satirical content. He was also known for his role in founding a branch of American conservatism that emphasized moderation and intellectual rigor. Reception: Viereck's poetry, including The Persimmon Tree, was praised for its erudition and wit. He stood somewhat apart from the confessional and Beat movements of his time, favoring formal structure and historical depth.
