Technicians of the Sacred a Range of Poetries From Africa, America, Asia, Europe & Oceania Edited With Commentaries Second Edition, Revised and Expanded

by Jerome Rothenberg

Technicians of the Sacred a Range of Poetries From Africa, America, Asia, Europe & Oceania Edited With Commentaries Second Edition, Revised and Expanded Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Since its first publication in 1968, Jerome Rothenberg's "Technicians of the Sacred" has educated a generation of poets, artists, and readers to the multiple faces and possibilities of poetry throughout the world. Hailed by Robert Creeley as "both a deeply useful "work" book and an unequivocal delight," and by the "Los Angeles Times Book Review" as one of the hundred most recommended American books of the last thirty-five years, it appears here in a revised and expanded version several years in the making. Rothenberg's revision follows the structure and themes of the original version while reworking the contents to include a European section and a large number of newly gathered and translated poems that reflect the work set in motion since 1968.
