Distributed by the University of Nebraska Press for Whale and Star PressModernist Archaist offers a comprehensive English-language selection of Osip Mandelstam's poetry, edited by Russian scholar Kevin M. F. Platt, who also contributes an illuminating essay. New translations by notable contemporary poets combined with an exceptional selection of previous translations are representative of the most up-to-date interpretation of Mandelstam's work.
Osip Mandelstam (1891-1938), one of the most significant poets of twentieth-century Russian literature, also embodied more fully than any other its profound paradoxes. He was a Jew born in Poland who became a leading Russian poet. He was a committed Modernist who was nevertheless faithful to the great examples and strict forms of the past literary tradition. Most strikingly, he was a rebel and radical thinker who was ultimately hounded to death as an "enemy" of the revolutionary Soviet society. Yet while Mandelstam's poetry bore witness to the convulsions of twentieth-century Russian culture and politics, it was by no means limited or defined by these historical contexts. In an early statement of his creative credo Mandelstam wrote: "for an artist, a worldview is a tool or a means, like a hammer in the hands of a mason, and the only reality is the work of art itself." The poems offered in this volume, about half of them appearing in previously unpublished translations, present an overview of Mandelstam's major works. Introductory materials include an essay on his life and poetry.

ITS SO FLUFFY
Color: White, Size: X-Large
This jacket is magical. For the price it’s pretty amazing. The only reason this isn’t a 5 star is the zipper is a little on the cheap feel side. Kinda loose feeling while zipping up. I’ve had no issues with it though. That’s being nitpicky. If you don’t have a weird feel for zippers it’s a 5 star review. Very lightweight and very comfortable and warm. I love the sleeve that goes past the cuff so if you are wearing gloves it helps shield them as well to stay warm. Great design and the fit is your regular fit. If you wear a large, get the large. If you want a little room underneath go one size higher. I did that because I like my winter jackets with a little bit of room. Great jacket would highly recommend

A Classy coat
Size: Medium, Color: Black
For the price I paid, this is a great find. The quality of the fabric was good, and the waist was good. We tried washing it for the safer side, and the color didn't turn out well, but it looks great. If you prefer using the tie, it looks very good, and the bow tie was easy to adjust. I ordered another suit, but for the price I paid, this is really good.
With the fitting, the adjustments could be made, and the extra cloth was provided accordingly, which is a good thing. Coming to the waistcoat, I would say it fits properly if you are going with the actual size, as sometimes it varies. Also, refer to the size guide. With the washability, I used hand washing and just dipped it in water to see the color. It was really good and the color sustained well. The tie was not provided, but you do get the bow tie, and it was neatly packed. With pants, the size may vary, and if you have any other pants that could match this color, you can use them. The package was very neat and easy to open. No complaints on the package, as sometimes it will be more to open it. This is for our very special occasion and so glad that it was great.
