Description: Blackburn, Paul. Poem of the Cid: A modern translation with notes by Paul Blackburn. Edited by George Economou, with an Introduction by Luis Cortest. 8vo wrappers. University of Oklahoma Press, 1998. This is regarded as the finest translation into English of the great medieval Spanish epic, Poema del Mio Cid. Blackburn, who was much influenced by Ezra Pound, published in his lifetime thirteen books of poetry and five major translations. His translation of the Cid was designed to be read aloud, since the original was a spoken text. Warm presentation inscription from Economou to one of his colleagues. Quite fine.
