complete poetry
the Stefan Zweig
This edition brings together the poetry of Stefan Zweig whose authorship does not admit of doubt. For the first time in Spanish his poetry collected
Included are the two independent collections that he published during his lifetime: Silver Strings and Early Crowns. Zweig brought together the best of his poetry in New Voyages, which included new poems, unpublished or published in magazines, which we have also included in our edition, based on that prepared by Richard Friedenthal.
Like so many other generation companions, Stefan Zweig lived trapped between two worlds: the peaceful Vienna at the turn of the century—a distillation of successive decades of enlightenment and humanism—and the Europe destroyed by the two world wars, nationalist fanaticism and intolerance. The writer captured this fatal contrast in his famous memoirs The World of Yesterday, the pinnacle of a work dedicated to narrative, with an evident nineteenth-century flavor, and to the tireless drive to disseminate the work and lives of great personalities.
But if in his narrative and memoirs he reflected the atmosphere and atmosphere of the lost world of his youth, it was in poetry where he concentrated his first creative years, later leading to the translation of French classics. The two books published in this volume, written over five years, represent a remarkable literary exercise, in the wake of the poetry published by Rilke and Stefan George in the charming period that goes from the end of Romanticism to the beginning of the avant-garde, but with the particularity of having preserved the atmosphere and spirit of those years, still untouched by the war.
Welcome to the glittering Vienna of the beginning of the century, the last station of liberal humanism. Welcome to the heart of Europe.
