Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Mudd uses poetry to explore such widely different subjects as plagues, World War I and II, European and American history, the decline of civilizations, the influence of religions, both Christian and pagan. His tone is always clear so there would be no mistaking what he writes about. He is often playful, but always with an underlying seriousness of subject. He touches on his interest in classical literature, on the uses of poetry. He paints word-scapes of the beautiful places where he lives in France. Mudd ties his poetry to the wider contexts of culture, especially the fine arts, so this book is profusely illustrated with color images of Classical, Renaissance, and impressionist painting. He is a poet who values self-knowledge and a liberal education of the sort that was widely available in the 1960s and 70s. He is not, however, a poet of personal psychology or of personal suffering. His most important influences, both as a poet and philosophically, range from T.S. Eliot and Antonio Machado to 10 Century Chinese poets. Rather than the Bible, he reads the essays of Michel de Montaigne. He wants his readers to understand what he writes. He is and has always been active politically and posts irrregularly on Substack. A collection of clearly-written poems that reflect on the influences of wars and the classical traditions, Homer especially, on modern thought and societies. Many of the poems are set in French landscapes that become metaphors. The author's influences are the poets of the early 20th century. He writes clearly and avoids obscurity.
