The Experimental Poetry of Jose Juan Tablada: A Collection in Spanish and English - Paperback
by José Juan Tablada (Author), A. Scott Britton (Translator)
Jose Juan Tablada (1871-1945) wrote more than 20 books on a range of subjects in several genres but is best known as an avant-garde poet of the Modernista movement. Now all three volumes of his experimental poetry--Un dia...poemas sinteticos, El jarro de flores (disociaciones liricas), and Li-Po y otros poemas--have been translated into English, carefully researched and crafted, and presented here for the first time in one volume.
The work also includes translations of Tablada poems that appeared in print prior to his primary works. These precursors trace the path that would lead Tablada to his great experiment.
José Juan Tablada was a Mexican painter, writer, art critic, diplomat and poet. He is credited with introducing the Spanish-speaking world to Japanese haiku and tanka short form poetry. A. Scott Britton is a poet, translator, and linguist. He has written extensively about the Zapotec, Guaraní, Hawaiian and Catalan languages, and his poetry and translations have appeared in a variety of international literary journals. He lives in Baltimore, Maryland.
