Aint Lyric Seventeen so Sweet

This anthology offers modern readers modern, new translations of the lyric poetry transcribed or written by medieval Irish monks. Irish poets were the first Europeans to write in the vernacular, though few people now read this poetry in its original. Well known for her translations of the poetry of classical Greece, ancient Egypt, and medieval Portugal, Barbara Hughes Fowler once again makes the poetry of another era accessible to a new generation. The 35 lyrics in this collection were composed between 800 and 1200 A.D., all of them anonymously, although some are attributed to legendary or historical figures who had died centuries before. Irish monks wrote them in the margins of the manuscripts they were copying, or they interpolated poems they either knew or composed into the pagan tales they were recording. Many of these poems are about what the Irish called Tir na n'Og, the Land of the Young. This was not a place you went after death if you behaved yourself in life. It was where imaginative Irish longed to go -- a paradise of lovely women, bountiful food and drink, and endless treasures of silver, gold, and jewels. The monks who composed or recorded such lyrics preserved their Celtic heritage while making concessions to Christianity, as in these stanzas from "Fair Lady, Will You Go With Me?" The earth is watered by sweet streams. We drink the best of mead and wine. Perfect are the people there. Conception has no guilt or sin. We see every one about, and no one sees us, because the darkness caused by Adam's sin prevents them from counting us. Lyric poems, rooted so firmly in the expression of human emotion, travel well from an ancient culture to a modern one in thehands of a fine translator. Rendered into language and form intended for a general readership, these lyrics help to preserve an ancient and rich culture.

From the award-winning author of "Heaven's Coast, Atlantis", and "My Alexandria" comes an intensely lyrical, passionate, and joyful collection of poems. This assemblage visualizes the body as "the sweet machine", a vibrant, sensual, and living thing.

That color, the glowing green lizard skin, repeats in every new leaf. The color of it must be spring green, impossible to describe until I see a just-hatched lizard sunning on a stone. Working in the mild sun, I feel the green fuse of my body, too. The regenerative power of nature explodes in every new leaf. Surges of energy, kaleidoscopic sunlight through the leaves, the soft breeze that makes me want to say the word 'zephyr' - this mindless simplicity can be called happiness. The regenerative power of nature explodes in every weed, stalk, branch. It is also a memoir of a season of change, and of renewed possibility.
