Paterson by William Carlos Williams (English) Hardcover Book

Description: Paterson by William Carlos Williams, Christopher MacGowan Long recognized as a masterpiece of modern American poetry, WIlliam Carlos Williams Paterson is one mans testament and vision, "a humanist manifesto enacted in five books, a grammar to help us life" (Denis Donoghue). FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Paterson is both a place-the New Jersey city in whom the person (the poets own life) and the public (the history of the region) are combined. Originally four books (published individually between 1946 and 1951), the structure of Paterson (in Dr. Williams words) "follows the course of teh Passaic River" from above the great falls to its entrance into the sea. The unexpected Book Five, published in 1958, affirms the triumphant life of the imagination, in spite of age and death. This revised edition has been meticulously re-edited by Christopher MacGowan, who has supplied a wealth of notes and explanatory material. Author Biography William Carlos Williams (1883-1963), author of Paterson and winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Pictures from Brueghel, is widely considered one of the greatest poets of the twentieth century. Also a short-story writer, novelist, essayist, and translator, he helped in a big way to establish modernism in America.
