Zustand: Sehr gut. XX, 240 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Slightly rubbed, overall very good and clean. / Leicht berieben, insgesamt sehr gut und sauber. - Constantine Cavafy was the most improbable [and] remains among the greatest of modern Greek poets. "He wore a straw hat and stood at an angle to the universe," said E.M. Forster. Deceptively simple and with hardly a metaphor in sight, Cavafy's poetry nevertheless presents an enormous challenge to any modern translator. Alan Boegehold has several rare advantages for the task. He is a fine classicist, to whom Cavafy's forays into the Hellenistic and Byzantine past present no problems. His familiarity with the Greek language, both ancient and modern, makes him sensitive to subtle nuances that many would miss (no accident that he's an expert on Greek gestures). - Alan Lindley Boegehold took his A.B. in Latin at the University of Michigan in 1950 and his Ph.D. in Classical Philology at Harvard University in 1958. He taught Latin and Greek mostly at Brown University (1960-2001), but he began at the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana, and taught from time to time as a visitor at Harvard, Yale, the University of California at Berkeley, Amherst College, and Florida State University. In exploring the world of Classical antiquity, he has tried to use language, literature, philosophy, the structures of justice, and all material culture as ways to understanding. His most recent books are When a Gesture Was Expected (Princeton University Press, 1999), The Lawcourts at Athens, vol. 28 of the Athenian Agora series (The American School at Athens, 1995), and In Simple Clothes: Eleven Poems by Constantine Cavafy (Occasional Works, 1992.) Boegehold came to an appreciation of modern Greek literature by way of the American School of Classical Studies at Athens, a graduate research institute affiliated with over 150 leading American colleges and universities, where he has been a professor in residence and chairman of the Managing Committee.

All items in good condition. The letters on blue paper, and each in a stamped, postmarked envelope, addressed to 'Mrs Felicity Rhodes | North Lodge | 128 Banbury Road | Oxford'. Letter One (29 May 1995): 2pp., 12mo. He thanks her for typing the poem, which is 'only just the first part of a rather long one and doesn't really quite stand on its own - not that the whole thing comes off except for a few lines here and there.' he has 'never thought of having any Poems published', as he is 'only too aware of how sadly they limp along'. He has only shown them to 'one or two friends'. He would have liked to have been 'like the Greek Alexandrian Poet Cavaffy [sic] who used to carry copies of his latest poems in his pocket to distribute among his friends. But then he was a very great poet and his friends must have felt very privileged.' He has been 'very impressed' by what he has 'glimpsed' of Rhodes's own poems. Accompanied by a typescript (by Rhodes?) of an untitled poem. 1p., 8vo. Headed in pencil: 'MAURICE CARDIFF.' It begins: 'Come to the edge and watch | The sickle winged sea birds, the slow | Implacable onrush of incoming sea | Beat on the rock bed and seawrack below.' Letter Two (4 February 1996): 2pp., 12mo. He has enjoyed reading her manuscript, which is 'full of fascinating facts and all so well written and clearly presented'. If she intends it to be 'a history of the dance in relation to the theatre' he wonders why she 'begins with the Etruscans and not the Greeks who had both'. He goes on to discuss the 'frescoes at Tarquinium', and is pleased at the news that she is 'getting back to painting'. 'I hope you are enjoying the dark ages.' In a postscript he explains that he is enclosing a 'rather poem prompted by the recent snow.' Accompanied by an Autograph Poem by Cardiff, 1p., 12mo, titled 'A Winter Casualty'. 20 lines arranged in four five-line stanzas. The first stanza reads: 'The flakes are falling fast | I sit by the fire and recall | Such snow-falls in the past | The snow-man and giant ball | That for more than a month might last.'.
