The Meridian speech is one of Paul Celan\u2019s key works. This meticulous, fascinating, and, finally, compelling edition begins by unlocking what seems to be the work\u2019s multifoliate nature. Ultimately, though, and with the help of Pierre Joris\u2019s eloquent translation, we discover that that under the many surfaces of this magisterial essay is an abyss of poetic thinking struggling to emerge into the light of our encounter.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve prepared a document that might nicely serve as a primer to Paul Celan\u2019s wartime experience and early poems. It includes a page-long summary of his life c. 1941-45 and then five pages from Pierre Joris\u2019 excellent introductory profile to his\u00a0Paul Celan: Selections<\/em>, followed by the texts of just two early poems.\u00a0Here<\/a> is that document (PDF).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
