Описание: When the Pipirite Sings gathers poems by the noted Haitian poet, novelist, and neurologist Jean M?tellus, who died in January 2014. Along with other signature works, this volume includes the first English translation of M?tellus’s visionary epic poem, “Au pipirite chantant” (“When the Pipirite Sings”), widely regarded as his masterpiece.Translated by formidable comparative literature scholar Haun Saussy, When the Pipirite Sings expresses an acute historical consciousness and engages recurrent Haitian themes—the wrenching impact of colonialism and underdevelopment, the purposes of education, and the merging of spiritual and temporal power. And, as always with M?tellus’s poetry, the range of voices and points of view evokes other genres, including fiction and cinema. This eminently readable book has formal and thematic ties to Aim? C?saire’s Notebook of a Return to My Native Land, central to the canon of French-language postcolonial writings.In addition to many books of poetry, M?tellus published novels, chiefly about the remembered Haiti of his youth, and plays about the conquest of the Caribbean. His nonfiction included reflections on Haitian history and politics, on the iconography of slave emancipation, and studies of aphasia and dyslexia.
