This is a compelling addition for the discerning Liverpool FC fan who appreciates depth, history, and the art of language. Joseph Brodsky: The Future, or The Distant Past. Two Essays on Antiquity offers a unique intellectual journey.
The book features two seminal essays by the Nobel Prize-winning poet and essayist Joseph Brodsky (1940-1996): "Homage to Marcus Aurelius" and "Letter to Horace." Written in English during the 1990s, these texts were originally published in New York as part of the collection On Grief and Reason. They explore the enduring power of classical culture, poetry, and philosophy.
This edition presents the essays in their original English alongside a Russian translation. It reveals Brodsky not only as a master poet but as a profound and ironic thinker. For the fan who sees the poetry in a perfectly weighted pass or the ancient strategy in a modern counter-attack, this book bridges the distant past with the immediate future. Price: 1120.00 RUR.
