Flower and Song: Poetica

Traducere de Edward Kissam, Michael Schmidt
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 sep 2009
The brilliant Aztec poetic tradition would have all but vanished after the Spanish Conquest in 1521 without the friars who painstakingly transcribed and preserved the poems in the years that followed. This title gives us echoes of the lyrical and philosophical songs, the songs of rejoicing, sorrow, ritual and war, and the epics of myth and legend.
