About this product

Product Information

Critics and readers alike recognize Ammons's achievements: in 1973, his Collected Poems won the National Book Award for Poetry; in 1975, his long poem Sphere: The Form of a Motion was nominated for the National Book Award and received the Bollingen Prize for Poetry: in 1977, he received and award from the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters. The Snow Poems, Ammons's twelfth book, is a major achievement by a major American Poet.The Snow Poems is the most recent book of poetry by an author who has been called perhaps the most imaginative, innovative poet writing today. Described as the fifth gospel because of its evangelical purpose, this spiritual autobiography creates a world in which reason and faith have transformed moral and social chaos into order. It is one of the most important works in the literature of Western Europe and is considered the greatest poem of the European Middle Ages. This single volume, blank verse translation of The Divine Comedy includes an introduction, maps of Dante's Italy, Hell, Purgatory, Geocentric Universe, and political panorama of the thirteenth and early fourteenth century, diagrams and notes providing the reader with invaluable guidance.

Always happy with the Nile's service. Whilst dispatch can take longer than others, books are sourced at a great price from locations worldwide and from prior experience I know to order in advance. I ordered three expensive textbooks for uni, two weeks later they were dispatched and the next day received - all earlier than expected timeframe. Packaged very well, books intact. Great seller, updated tracking and items as described. A+++

  • A Masterpiece of Dante and John Ciardi (the translator)

    I bought this particular edition of the Divine Comedy for a college class on Classic Western Literature. The introductions and notes to each canto were a huge help in understanding the text, which contains a number of allusions, metaphors, and poetic devices. Ciardi does a marvelous job translating the Italian, generally retaining the poetic meter and rhyme while clarifying confusing Italian idioms or expressions. This masterpiece is worth reading for its historic importance to Western Literature, its spiritual importance as a Christian allegory, and its litary importance in poetic brilliance and in artistic beauty.
