The introduction and translated poems of Mandelstam within are the gold-standard for critics and readers who don't know Russian. They expertly illuminate other Mandelstam translations, not replacing them, but rather allowing for a better understanding of what they specifically contribute.

� propos des auteurs

Osip Mandelstam (1891-1938) was a Russian and Soviet poet born in St Petersburg. He is widely regarded as one of the twentieth centuries most important poets. He was the husband of Nadezhda Mandelstam and one of the foremost members of the poetic school of Acmeism. He was arrested by Joseph Stalin's government during the repression of the 1930s and sent into internal exile with his wife. He died in 1938 of typhoid fever in a transit camp.

Ian Probstein is associate professor of English at Touro College. He has published ten books of poetry, translated more than a dozen poetry volumes; and has compiled and edited more than thirty books and anthologies of poetry in translation.
