The translations - or ""conversions"" - in this book make available to contemporary readers of English-language poetry a wealth of poems that belong to what T.S. Eliot called ""the tradition."" From Homer, Sappho, and Archilochus to Catullus, Horace, and Virgil; from Dante, Villon, and Lope de Vega to Baudelaire, Rilke, and Pessoa; this book presents fresh versions of many of the best-loved poems in the Western European tradition in strikingly new versions, allowing readers without access to the originals the opportunity to possess, in some measure, both the sense and style of these monumental works. Ryan Wilson's first book of poems, The Stranger World - winner of the prestigious Donald Justice Poetry Prize - explored the ways in which human beings may discover themselves in life's unforseen and unpredictable phenomena. That book, described by poet and professor James Matthew Wilson as ""a most astonishing debut"" and ""maybe the best first book by a poet I've ever read,"" lays the groundwork for Proteus Bound, in which the author's practice of xenia, or ""hospitality,"" welcomes poems from more than a half dozen languages, spanning nearly three millennia, into English.

The Apple Cart

"The Apple Cart" is a satirical play written by George Bernard Shaw, first performed in 1929. It presents a humorous and critical look at politics, power, and the role of monarchy in society. Set in a fictional country called "England in the Future," the play revolves around King Magnus, a progressive and charismatic monarch who seeks to modernize and democratize the monarchy. However, his plans are met with opposition from his Prime Minister, the aristocracy, and other members of the establishment who fear losing their privileges. The central conflict arises when King Magnus decides to marry a commoner, the beautiful and intelligent Orinthia, against the wishes of his advisors. This decision triggers a political crisis, with various factions plotting to undermine the king's authority and maintain the status quo.

Into the Heart's Land

Henry Barnes, the author of A Life for the Spirit, brings us a comprehensive view of the roots and development of anthroposophy throughout North America. From its seminal beginnings with a few hearty souls in New York City, it moved across the prairies to the west coast and beyond, to Canada, Mexico, and Hawaii, and took root in the hearts and minds of the "new world." Here is the story of those adventurous spirits who took responsibility for bringing the work of Rudolf Steiner to North America in the form of study groups, agricultural initiatives, Waldorf and special education, the arts, and so much more.
