This bilingual edition presents a selection of poetry by Manuel Jose Othon (1858-1906), Mexico’s most renowned poet of nature and landscape, along with a new verse translation in facing-page format. Inspired by Horatian odes, Virgilian eclogues, and the Spanish classics (Garcilaso, Cervantes, Fray Luis de Leon), Othon harnessed the passion of the Romantics with his poetic craft. The result is a verbal portrait of Mexico’s north central highlands, balancing the naturalist’s eye for detail with the painter’s sweeping vistas and sense of the sublime.
