As poet and experimental translator, pioneer in performance poetry and ethnopoetics, Jerome Rothenberg for over three decades has been a literary radical and prominent influence in the American avant-garde. Among his own earliest sources was the Spanish poet Federico Garcia Lorca, whose "composition through images ... opened my mind to the contemporary poetry of Europe & of something possibly older & deeper that would surface for us in America as well." Having recently returned to translating Lorca, Rothenberg began to appropriate and rearrange items of Lorca's vocabulary and to compose a series of poems of his own that "both are & aren't mine, both are & aren't Lorca." As an original work, The Lorca Variations are, as he describes them, "a way of coming full circle into a discovery that began with Lorca & for which he has stood with certain others as a guide & constant fellow-traveler."

Jerome Rothenberg (1931 2024) was an American poet, translator and anthologist, noted for his work in the fields of ethnopoetics and performance poetry. He lived in New York City until 1972, when he moved first to the Allegany Seneca Reservation in western New York State, and later to San Diego, California, where he was living at the time of his death. In 1970 the first version of Rothenberg's selected poems appeared as 'Poems for the Game of Silence' (2000) , and soon after that he became one of the poets published regularly by New Directions. Provoked by his own ethnopoetic anthologies, he began, as he wrote of it, "to construct an ancestral poetry of my own in a world of Jewish mystics, thieves, & madmen". The first work to emerge from that, both thematically and formally, was Poland/1931 (1974) , described by the poet David Meltzer as Rothenberg's "surrealist Jewish vaudeville". Over the next two decades Rothenberg expanded this theme in works such as A Big Jewish Book and Khurbn & Other Poems, the latter an approach to holocaust writing, which had otherwise been no more than a subtext in Poland/1931. Rothenberg also re-explored Native American themes in A Seneca Journal (1978) , and the relation of his work to Dada and Surrealism culminated in a further cycle of poems, That Dada Strain, in 1983. The works published since 1990 include more than fifteen books of his own poetry as well as four books of poetry in translation from Schwitters, Lorca, Picasso, and Nerval and a book of selected translations, 'Writing Through', which extends the idea of translation to practices like collage, assemblage, and appropriation. Having recently returned to translating Lorca, Rothenberg began to appropriate and rearrange items of Lorca's vocabulary and to compose a series of poems of his own that 'both are & aren't mine, both are & aren't Lorca.' As an original work, The Lorca Variations are, as he describes them, 'a way of coming full circle into a discovery that began with Lorca & for which he has stood with certain others as a guide & constant fellow-traveler.' ; Small 8vo 7½" - 8" tall; xi, 304 pages; Signed by Author.
