Still, these poetic baedekers tend to get bogged down in terminology and historical hairsplitting, while the actual music gets lost in the shuffle. We should be thankful, then, for Robert Pinsky's brief, wonderfully readable volume, in which he zooms in on verse as acoustic artifact: "When I say to myself a poem by Emily Dickinson or George Herbert, the artist's medium is my breath. The reader's breath and hearing embody the poet's words. This makes the art physical, intimate, vocal, and individual."

    Extractions: This widely praised version of Dante's masterpiece, which won the Los Angeles Times Book Prize and the Harold Morton Landon Translation Award of the Academy of American Poets, is more idiomatic and approachable than its many predecessors. Former U.S. Poet Laureate Pinsky employs slant rhyme and near rhyme to preserve Dante's terza rima form without distorting the flow of English idiom. The result is a clear and vigorous translation that is also unique, student-friendly, and faithful to the original: "A brilliant success," as Bernard Knox wrote in The New York Review of Books The one quality that all classic works of literature share is their timelessness. Shakespeare still plays in Peoria 400 years after his death because the stories he dramatized resonate in modern readers' hearts and minds; methods of warfare have changed quite a bit since the Trojan War described by Homer in his

    Extractions: W A poet and professor with wide-ranging interests, Pinsky is also the author of an interactive text adventure game, "Mindwheel," which he wrote in collaboration with computer programmers some twelve years ago. In a recent essay for the New York Times Book Review, "The Muse in the Machine: Or, The Poetics of Zork," Pinsky commented on the surprising similarities between poetry and computers. Tonight, in addition to answering questions about his own poetry and his experience translating Dante, Pinsky will offer some of his thoughts about the relationship between poetry and computers. In a review of Pinsky's translation of the "Inferno" in The New Yorker, the poet Edward Hirsch points out that "The journey into the underworld is one of the most obsessively recurring stories of the Western imagination," and cites the classical examples of Orpheus, Heracles, Odysseus, and Aeneas, as predecessors to Dante's pilgrim. All of these descend into the nether regions of death and survive to tell about it tales that hold a distinct fascination in the way they open up vast, mysterious, complex worlds. Putting a tantalizing electronic-age spin on Hirsch's observation, Pinsky opens his NYT essay, "The Muse in the Machine," with the intriguing idea that poetry and computer software "share a great human myth or trope, an image that could be called the secret passage: the discovery of large, manifold channels through a small, ordinary-looking or all but invisible aperture." Pinsky goes on to say, "This opening up, the discovery of much in little, seems to be a fundamental resonance of human intelligence....this passage to vast complexities is at the essence of what writing through the machine might become."

    Extractions: You Save: A vibrant anthology and accompanying CD that revive a great American tradition: the joy of reciting poetry aloud. This lively, abundant book is distinguished by its focus on hearing poetry read aloud. Robert Pinsky, beloved for his ability to bring poetry to life as spoken language, has collected poems that sound marvelous in a reader’s actual or imagined voice. Pinsky has organized the book into sections with brief introductions that emphasize the attentive, intuitive, and reflective process of listening to poetry. This structure provides an implicit, generous definition-by-example of poetry itself: beginning with “Short Lines, Frequent Rhymes” and “Long Lines” and proceeding through fundamental themes such as “Love Poems,” “Odes, Complaints, and Celebrations,” and “Jokes, Ripostes, Parodies, and Insults.”

    Extractions: I n an online conference hosted by The Atlantic Monthly in April, 1995, the American poet Robert Pinsky commented on some of the problems inherent in translating a work like Dante's Inferno (the first part of the Divina Commedia ). Asked whether poetry is essentially untranslatable, he answered: "Yes. Poetry is basically a technology of the sounds of language, and one set of sounds is not another. . . . But as a work of imagination one canto use a very old term'English' a work of art into another derived work of art, meant to give pleasure and an idea of the original in the new language." Robert Pinsky is not, of course, the first translator to venture through the "deep passage" of Dante's
