Description: Farewell . . . and if Forever by Johann M. Moser Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Here are poems in authentic styles from many times and cultures, including, among others, Arthurian motifs, Crusader hymns, tender love poems, mournful laments, and lovely evocations of natural landscapes and the creatures dwelling in them. Publisher Description In these delightful pages, Johann Moser reaches deep into the poetic traditions of many times and various cultures to create for us an abundance of verse in different forms and on an astounding variety of themes. Here are tender love poems and lovely evocations of natural landscapes and of the creatures that dwell in them. Theres also a fantasy piece inspired by modern masters such as Tolkien and C.S. Lewis. One sequence features a number of venerable medieval genres, including Arthurian motifs, a troubadour love song, a Crusader hymn, and a satirical "confession" of the notorious folklore scoundrel Reynard the Fox. Other poems resound with the energy and color of great images culled from a multitude of sources, including, among others, the Rosenkavaliers marvelous entrance bearing the Silver Rose of betrothal, the prayer of Odysseus to the white sea-goddess Leucothea, the great philosopher Abelards touching lament over a dying rabbit, and the stampede of a herd of wild bulls down from the biblically famed mountains of Bashan. Here is a rich gallery of dynamic poems to delight the intellect and illuminate the soul of our time. Author Biography Johann M. Moser was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts, in 1940. He grew up in New York City and later in New Jersey. At Dartmouth College he majored in philosophy and studied with the poet Richard Eberhart. In 1970, he received a Ph.D. in comparative literature from the Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C., where he specialized in poetics and medieval literature. From 1970 until his retirement in 2000, he taught literature and philosophy at St. Anselm College in Manchester, New Hampshire.Moser published a volume of verse titled Most Ancient of All Splendors with Sophia Institute Press in 1989, as well as edited and translated for the press both an anthology of classical Nativity verse and, in collaboration with a colleague, Robert Anderson, an edition of St. Thomas Aquinass hymns and prayers.Although familiar with many areas of the United States and having lived several years abroad, Moser spent his early summers in the Lakes Region of central New Hampshire, where he has now resided for over half a century. In these decades, he has formed an intimate bond with northern New England, whose mountains and lakes and lively populace have been a source of inspiration for him, even as he has devoted himself to a sustained pursuit and emulation of world literature.
