Emblems of Desire: Selections from the Delie of Maurice Sceve

Richard Sieburth has performed a magnificent service by translating a large selection of the book-length love poem Delie by Maurice Sceve, one of the greatest French Renaissance poets, whose work is hardly known in English. Sieburth's long introduction does much to clarify the difficulties that Sceve presents even to a French reader. But what is truly amazing is how he has found a contemporary equivalent for Sceve's extremely compact music and enabled it to breathe in English, while still retaining the tension of the original. --John Ashbery.
