Summary
This book is the first collection of essays dedicated to the work of C. H. Sisson (1915-2003), a major English poet, critic and translator. The collection aims to offer an overall guide to his work for new readers, while also encouraging established readers of one aspect (such as his well-known classical translations) to explore others. It champions in particular the quality of his original poetry. The book brings together contributions from scholars and critics working in a wide range of fields, including classical reception, translation studies and early modern literature as well as modern English poetry, and concludes with a more personal essay on Sissons work by Michael Schmidt, his publisher. Victoria Moul is Reader in Early Modern Latin and English at University College London, UK. John Talbot is Associate Professor of English Literature at Brigham Young University, USA. .
