Book excerpt: Excerpt from Translations From the Poems of Victor Hugo It has been said that in these days we know toomuch about our great men. The "fierce light" that beats around the lives of men of genius exaggerates and often distorts every unimportant detail, every subsidiary feature, so that we are shown shreds and patches rather than any comprehensive or comprehensible unit, and a jargon of discussion rises in place of a calm judgment It is as thoughsome great old picture were exposed to a glare so intense that only its cracks and scores would attract notice, while the design as a whole was lost.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems of Victor Hugo The conviction that Victor Hugo's permanent fame is to rest largely upon his poetry, the evident fact that it is just this part of his work that is least adequately represented in the reading of American students, and indeed of the American public generally, and the belief that for many the formidable array of volumes in which his poetry is con tained is a chief obstacle to a better acquaintance with the poet - these are the considerations that have led to the preparation of this volume. Its purpose will have been attained if it contribute somewhat to the wider knowledge and the juster appreciation in this country of Victor Hugo as poet.

But, wretch! your soul a flash of pity crost; Blest glow! (where selfishness had ne'er a part), Unknown e'en by yourself, possessed your heart, I made you die, while right assumed her reign; Salvation e'en the cruel can regain, E'en bloodiest murderer, and worst of lords, Who the least help, to the least man affords--One moment's love, wins Eden repossest; Help to a pig outweighs a world opprest, And thrills with joy for him who 'scapes from hell Come, you were good one day, be ever blest; Enter, transfigured late by crimes possest, King! By heaven's splendours they are all effaced, By spotless white see your black wings replaced." POOR FOLK. 'TVS night, the hut, though poor, keeps out the JL wind; The room is dark, yet something there you find Which like a ray amid the twilight falls; The fishing-nets are hung about the walls, And in a nook, where pots and plates in line Upon a cupboard shelf obscurely shine, Stands a large bed, with curtains hung around, Hard by a mattress spread upon the ground, Where, like a nest of souls, five children sleep; The hearth, where ashes still some fire keep, On bed and ceiling cast a reddish ray; A woman, thoughtful, pale, kneels down to pray; Their mother. She's alone; and out of doors The ocean, white with foam, its wailing pours To sky, night, rock, to howling winds and wild. The man's at sea; a sailor from a child, With gloomy chance doth a fierce war sustain: For he must be afloat in squall and rain. POOR FOLK. 177 The children cry for food, and off he hies At eve, when billows to the gunwale rise. Unhelped, alone, his bark he steers and tends. Meanwhile, the wife at home the canvas mends, Fits on the hooks, the broken nets repairs, And for the fish-soup in the...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Selected Poems by Victor Hugo: Edited With Introduction and Notes In grouping the material, I have adopted a systematic rather than a chronological arrangement. The chronologi cal order usually followed is undesirable. No one would attempt to explain a picture by tracing the order of the strokes of the painter's brush; it only breeds confusion in the mind of the student. Moreover, it is now certain that many of the dates which Hugo placed at the end of his poems are not exact though we do not always know what the true dates are. I have, therefore, suppressed them, since scholarly discussions would here be out of place. In two or three places only, when they were essential to the understanding of the poem, I have retained them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Poems of Victor Hugo, Vol. 17 One Vlad refused his tribute - he they dub (i mean the Chief of Tunis) Beelzebub Who the Turk's envoys took, empaled them straight Each side the road, before the city gate. On Murad came, burned harvests, barns, and then The Boyard conquered; twenty thousand men Prisoners of war he took, compelled to yield; Next a vast wall built round the battlefield. The twenty thousand men in embrasures, Whence issue shrieks of torment, he immures; For every victim's eyes he made a slit; And when he left, upon the wall he writ, Stone-carver Murad to stake-planter Vlad. Strong faith the Sultan and devotion had. Once in Euboea, where his lightning came, He gave a hundred convents to the flame. Murad, for forty years dread homicide, Slaughtered mankind: God seemed with him to hide. He was supreme unnumbered armies o'er Was caliph, padishah, and emperor. Great is Murad! The priesthood shout the While.

Download or read book Selected Poems of Victor Hugo written by Victor Hugo and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2004-06 with total page 668 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although best known as the author of Notre Dame de Paris and Les Misérables, Victor Hugo was primarily a poet—one of the most important and prolific in French history. Despite his renown, however, there are few comprehensive collections of his verse available and even fewer translated editions. Translators E. H. and A. M. Blackmore have collected Victor Hugo's essential verse into a single, bilingual volume that showcases all the facets of Hugo's oeuvre, including intimate love poems, satires against the political establishment, serene meditations, religious verse, and narrative poems illustrating his mastery of the art of storytelling and his abiding concern for the social issues of his time. More than half of this volume's eight thousand lines of verse appear here for the first time in English, providing readers with a new perspective on each of the fascinating periods of Hugo's career and aspects of his style. Introductions to each section guide the reader through the stages of Hugo's writing, while notes on individual poems provide information not found in even the most detailed French-language editions. Illustrated with Hugo's own paintings and drawings, this lucid translation—available on the eve of Hugo's bicentenary—pays homage to this towering figure of nineteenth-century literature by capturing the energy of his poetry, the drama and satirical force of his language, and the visionary beauty of his writing as a whole.
