Sinopsis de E. E. CUMMINGS: COMPLETE POEMS, 1904-1962
Now presented in a beautiful new edition, Complete Poems 19041962 showcases E. E. Cummingss transcendent body of work, collected in its entirety.
This edition of E. E. Cummingss Complete Poems contains all the poems published or designated for publication by the poet in his lifetime, including 36 poems that were first collected in the 1991 edition and 164 unpublished poems issued in 1983 under the title Etcetera. Combining Thoreaus controlled belligerence with the brash abandon of an uninhibited bohemian, Cummings, together with Pound, Eliot, and William Carlos Williams, helped bring about the twentieth-century revolution in literary expression.
Today, Cummings is recognized as the author of some of the most beautiful lyric poems in the English language as well as one of the most inventive American poets of his timein the words of Richard Kostelanetz, the major American poet of the middle-twentieth century.
Formally fractured and yet gleefully alive and whole, at once cubistic and figurative, Cummingss work expanded the boundaries of what language is and can do.

Escrito por E. E. Cummings
Edward Estlin Cummings 1894-1962, habitualmente abreviado E. E. Cummings, fue un poeta, pintor, ensayista y dramaturgo estadounidense considerado una de las figuras mas importantes del siglo XX.
Con su trabajo pretendía romper los moldes de la ortografia y la sintaxis y desafiar las formas tradicionales de escritura para alcanzar la poesía pura y libre de convenciones. Romper las frases, intercalar mayúsculas y el uso de signos ortográficos convierten sus poemas en algo casi pictórico y dadaista.
Sus temas son el amor y la naturaleza, la sátira y la relación del individuo con las masas y el mundo.
