If King Jamshid’s diamond cup breaks, that’s it

One can sigh, but a lifetime is needed to finish it

When the Great One gestures to me

For tomorrow’s sake, don’t skimp with me on wine today.

I’m confused: should I cry over my heart, or slap my chest?

She has a habit of torture, but doesn’t mean to end the love

For my weak heart this living in the sorrow house

Religious people are always praising the Garden of Paradise

Only a few faces show up as roses

I agree that I’m in a cage, and I’m crying

Each time I open my mouth, the Great One says

My heart is becoming restless again

I never lost as much but twice

Title divine–is mine!

After great pain, a formal feeling comes

I died for Beauty

I dwell in Possibility

I heard a Fly buzz–when I died

I live with Him–I see His face

My Life had stood–a Loaded Gun

Further in Summer than the Birds

Tell all the Truth but tell it slant–

–     New Translation features help students to understand issues of translation, by presenting brief selections in their original language, accompanied by two or three translations that demonstrate how in different contexts translations can choose to convey the original in innovative and expressive new ways. For Volume E, translations features include Goethe’s Faust and Mignon and Charles Baudelaire’s poetry. 

  

–     Each of our Perspectives features is now followed by a Crosscurrents feature, which will highlight additional connections for students to explore.

 

–     Streamlined coverage helps you to focus on the readings you need for the course. 

 

–     New readings include many selections that were widely requested by world literature professors from across the country, including major new readings such as Moliere’s Tartuffe.  

 

–     Improved Table of Contents and Index will help you locate resources faster.

 

–     Pull out quotations have been added to help draw student interest and highlight important information.

 

–     New headings have been integrated throughout the text to guide reading.

 

–     An enhanced Companion Website adds a multitude of resources, including an interactive timeline, practice quizzes, research links, a glossary of literary terms, an audio glossary that provides the accepted pronunciations of author, character, and selection names from the anthology, audio recordings of our translations features, and sample syllabi. 

• Translations sections show a wide variety of knotty translational problems and creative solutions. Selected pieces are given in the original and then accompanied by two or three translations, chosen to show the differing strategies translators have used to convey the sense of the original in new and powerful ways.  Our media supplements contain audio links to a reading of the pieces in their original language, so you can hear its verbal music as well as see it on the page.  Translations features in Volume E include Goethe’s Faust, Goethe’s Mignon, and Charles Baudelaire.    

• Perspectives sections are clusters of works around literary and cultural issues that are often associated with one or more major works. Examples include Romantic Nature, The National Poet, On the Colonial Frontier, and Occidentalism – Europe Through Foreign Eyes.

• Resonances are brief readings that illuminate a particular author or work, often in the form of responses or analogues from other centuries or regions. Examples include Stephane Mallarme’s “The Tomb of Charles Baudelaire” with the poetry of Baudelaire, a selection from Nicholas Black Elk and John G. Neihardt’s Black Elk Speaks with The Story of Emergence, and Che Lan Vien’s “Thoughts on Nguyen” with Nguyen Du.

• Teachable groupings organize readings to show different uses of a common literary genre or varied responses to a given cultural moment. Examples include The Romantic Fantastic and Other Americas.
