{"product_id":"9781847495266","title":"Footprints : Poems Selected and Translated by Anthony Mortimer (Dual-Language Edition) - Conrad Ferdinand Meyer","description":"\u003cp\u003eOnly edition in printThe most important Swiss poet of the nineteenth century, Conrad Ferdinand Meyer is regarded as a crucial figure in the transition of German-language poetry from the Romanticism of Heine, Novalis and Eichendorff to the Symbolism of Rilke and Stefan George. In poems that took years and sometimes decades to reach a final version, he worked within a limited set of themes and images - high mountains, gloomy lakes, sinister boats, nocturnal ghosts, reflected clouds, dark woods, golden sunsets, lightning, harvesting, lost lovers - to present his own symbolic world with a vividness and intensity that few poets can match. In these sensitive and accurate versions by acclaimed translator Anthony Mortimer, Meyer's achievement is available to anglophone readers for the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Conrad Ferdinand Meyer","offers":[{"title":"144 pages \/ 23\/04\/2026 \/ Poetry","offer_id":57110739714423,"sku":"9781847495266","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/9454\/1624\/files\/9781847495266_d9969451-f3f5-4b6b-8700-9ddac5a2f217.jpg?v=1781004335","url":"https:\/\/gulpfictionbooks.com\/products\/9781847495266","provider":"Gulp Fiction","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
