Cesar Vallejo is one the greatest Spanish-language poets of the
20th century, his monument being the book-length sequence "Trilce"
(a translation of which is published simultaneously with this
volume). After the publication of "Trilce", he published numerous
essays and a didactic novel, but did not collect any of his
subsequent poems for book publication. Since his death, these poems
have usually been referred to as the Posthumous Poems or,
collectively, as the "Poemas Humanos" after the title of one of the
posthumous collections. This volume brings together all of the
post-"Trilce" work that has been identified by the latest
scholarship and included in the most recent Peruvian edition of the
author's works. The Spanish texts have benefited from a number of
corrections, as compared to previous publications, and the poems
are presented chronologically - in so as far as the chronology can
be ascertained. The book offers the most complete version yet of
this magnificent body of work. The translations are by the
award-winning Irish poet-translator, Michael Smith, and the
Peruvian scholar Valentino Gianuzzi.
