The author refutes such easy categorizations of Milosz as \"the poet of Poland,\" \"the poet of history,\" \"the poet of the Holocaust.\" He examines instead such crucial problems as Milosz's search for the essence of human nature, irreducible to historical, social, and biological categories; Milosz's reflection on the erosion of the Christian imagination, which has resulted in a fundamental gap between the individual's inner life and the image of humanity formed by scientific theories; his efforts to rebuild the anthropocentric vision of the world, while acknowledging the elements that have undermined it; and finally, his attempt to recreate in his poetry a language that is both poetic and philosophical.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Eternal Moment\u003c\/i\u003e originally appeared in Polish in 1987. This version, which quotes extensively from Milosz's \u003ci\u003eCollected Poems\u003c\/i\u003e, is the first thorough introduction for English-speaking readers to this major poet.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"University of California Press","offers":[{"title":"Eternal Moment: The Poetry of Czeslaw Milosz ((A Centennial Book)) | Aleksander Fiut | Hardcover | 0520066898 | Used: Very Good | Back Stacks H 1749413","offer_id":48858849312920,"sku":"1749413","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/41AHD4MR11L.jpg?v=1775660968","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/eternal-moment-the-poetry-of-czeslaw-milosz-a-centennial-book","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
