A selection of forty sonnets is followed by poems using other metrical patterns and rhyme schemes, including terza rima, ottava rima, the sestina, the canzone, and the redondilha, a verse form typical of Portuguese poetry. Richard Zenith's fluid renditions, far from attempting to \"update\" Camões, closely adhere to the original text, employing modern English but resisting the temptation to expand on the relatively small and simple lexicon of the Portuguese. Along with discussing his method of translation, Zenith's illuminating introduction shows how Camões's life and work were intimately entwined.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Tagus Press","offers":[{"title":"Sonnets and Other Poems | Luís de Camões | Paperback | 9781951470227 | New | Poetry 1756735","offer_id":49261357662360,"sku":"1756735","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/81dCwPzAG4L.jpg?v=1781718171","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/sonnets-and-other-poems","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
