| Synopsis: |
This is the first English translation of Belgian poet Albert Giraud's collection of fifty poems, Pierrot Lunaire: Rondels Bergamasques (1884). Giraud's work was translated into German by Otto Erich Hartleben, and twenty-one of those poems were used by Arnold Schoenberg in his masterpiece [Pierrot Lunaire] (1912) -- one of the defining compositions of the twentieth century. These English renderings reveal the extent to which Hartleben introduced changes as he translated the work. Taken as a whole, this trilingual edition suggests how the French fin de siecle served as a model for the early-twentieth-century German avant-garde, which culminated in Schoenberg's masterpiece. |
