In 1938 Random House published The Selected Poetry of Robinson Jeffers, a volume that would remain in print for more than fifty years. Similarly, contemporary poets who have returned to the narrative poem acknowledge Jeffers to be a major poet, while those exploring California and the American West as literary regions have found in him a foundational figure. This new selected edition draws from these later volumes, and it includes a sampling of the poems Jeffers left unpublished, along with several prose pieces in which he reflects on his poetry and poetics.This edition also adopts the texts of the recently completed The Collected Poetry of Robinson Jeffers (five volumes, Stanford, 1988-2000). Moreover, Jeffers stands as a crucial precursor to contemporary attempts to rethink our practical, ethical, and spiritual obligations to the natural world and the environment.These developments underscore the need for a new selected edition that would, like the 1938 volume, include the long narratives that were to Jeffers his major work, along with the more easily anthologized shorter poems. In the quarter century that followed, four more volumes of his poetry were published. This new selected edition, then, is a much broader, more accurate representation of Jeffers's career than the previous Selected Poetry.Reviews of volumes inThe Collected Poetry of

I have been purchasing this calendar for my wife for at least 20 years.

This is a quick reference guide for the critically acclaimed book by Dr. If one is a teacher, or if one merely likes good writing, get this book. As it was, I approached this read with a bit of trepidation but open interest. It came in great shape, on time, and has been a good addition to her research.. Bible text is printed IN the book, which makes it really easy. These motifs take up over 100 pages!There are even projects included in this book. Disappointed.. I LOVED IT TOTALLY.. This book feels like it is more of a bridge into the next plotlines than a story that could stand on it's own. It is always a good feeling that you know that your money is well spent. Seuss book.. My 8 yr old could not put this down! We must have worked to find the right path for over an hour. Perhaps because she is trained in journalism, the focus of the book seemed to be on the p

From Publishers Weekly In the 1920s, on the strength of Roan Stallion, Tamar and Other Poems, Jeffers's critical reputation rivaled those of Frost and Eliotwhile the relatively frank sexual material to be found in his long, rough-hewn, often Callifornia-based narratives didn't hurt his popular reputation, as Washington State University professor Hunt notes in his introduction. 26) Forecast: While this selection is clearly intended to replace the Random edition, some readers may still prefer the poet's own selection (which could be provoked back into print), though this set will now have the edge on syllabi and in libraries. A much more modest Random selected edition published a few years after Jeffers's death remains in print in paper, but this huge selection, culled from the monumental five-volume collected edition Hunt has edited for Stanford, is much more comprehensive, and can claim improved textual accuracy. This new selection will get readers closer than ever to the poems as Jeffers himself saw them, reacquainting them with "the night-wind veering, the smell of the spilt wine,"
