Award-winning scholar-poet Miller Oberman's startlingly fresh translations of well-known and less familiar Old English poems often move between archaic and contemporary diction, while his original poems frequently draw on a compressed, tactile Old English lexicon and the powerful formal qualities of medieval verse. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eShaped by Oberman's scholarly training in poetry, medieval language, translation, and queer theory, these remarkable poems explore sites of damage and transformation, both new and ancient. \"Wulf and Eadwacer,\" a radical new translation of a thousand-year-old lyric, merges scholarly practice with a queer- and feminist-inspired rendering, while original poems such as \"On Trans\" draw lyrical connections between multiple processes of change and boundary crossing, from translation to transgender identity. Richly combining scholarly rigor, a finely tuned contemporary aesthetic, and an inventiveness that springs from a deep knowledge of the earliest forms of English, \u003ci\u003eThe Unstill Ones\u003c\/i\u003e marks the emergence of a major new voice in poetry.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"27th Letter Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67390832476205,"sku":"WHS-a5c1ebadca3f46d2bd28f4c46a8a4258","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0673\/3588\/0749\/files\/original_3fe8ad09-2550-4a11-ac5f-67778cef67e3.jpg?v=1787347947","url":"https:\/\/27thletterbooks.com\/products\/unstill-ones-poems-1","provider":"27th Letter Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
