Description: Eugenio Montale's Mestiere Vile Elective Translations from English 1930s 1940s Click images to enlarge Description Montale's "Mestiere Vile": The Elective Translations from English in the 1930s and 1940s by George Talbot Pub. Irish Academic Press Ltd, Dublin, 1995. 271 pages. Eugenio Montale (1896 – 11981) was an Italian poet, prose writer, editor and translator, and recipient of the 1975 Nobel Prize in Literature. This book examines Montale's (uncommissioned) translations from English during a period in which translation was widely seen as a way (often in covert protest against fascism) to break out of a narrow and ossified literary tradition. Montale's own work is seen as an appropriation of a foreign (Anglo-American) tradition in the interests of exploring new poetic possibilities in Italian. New & unread condition.
