This volume includes the 4 chapbooks published in 1917-18 and presents, at first glance, an odd mixture. Chronologically, we have El espejo de agua, written in 1914-16, first published in 1916, but, to all intents and purposes not distributed until 1918. Horizon carré(see below) follows and then come Ecuatorial (written in Spanish), Poemas árticos, Hallali and Tour Eiffel, the last two being composed in French. The last two publications from this period, Hallali and Tour Eiffel-both marked by textual experimentation-were very important for the rising wave of the Spanish avant-garde.
In this second edition, we have added an appendix containing the French version of the title poem, Équatoriale, which is at least partly translated by the author, an early version of Tour Eiffel as published in the magazine Nord-Sud, together with a Spanish version of the finished poem.
Huidobro, Vicente: - Avant-garde poet Vicente Huidobro was born into an aristocratic family in Santiago, Chile. He is known as the creator and exponent of the literary movement called Creationism (Creacionismo), a kind of literary cubism. After studying literature at the University of Chile, he lived in Paris for some twelve years in total, where he associated with artists and poets such as Pablo Picasso, Guillaume Apollinaire, and Pierre Reverdy. Huidobro returned to Chile permanently in the early 1930s, founded a number of magazines, and ran for the presidency of Chile, ultimately losing the campaign. His most definitive works are Altazor and Temblor de cielo (both 1931), although readers should also pay attention to Poemas árticos (Arctic Poems, 1918), Ecuatorial (Equatorial, 1918), El ciudadano del olvido (Citizen of Oblivion, 1941), Ver y palpar (Seeing and Touching, 1941) and Últimos poemas (1948). He died in Cartagena, Chile in 1948, shortly before his 56th birthday.
Weinberger, Eliot: - Eliot Weinberger's books of literary essays include Karmic Traces, An Elemental Thing, and The Ghosts of Birds. His political articles are collected in What I Heard About Iraq and What Happened Here: Bush Chronicles. The author of 19 Ways of Looking at Wang Wei, he is a translator of the poetry of Bei Dao, the editor of The New Directions Anthology of Classical Chinese Poetry, and the general editor of the series Calligrams: Writings from and on China. Among his translations of Latin American literature are The Poems of Octavio Paz, Jorge Luis Borges' Selected Non-Fictions, Vicente Huidobro's Altazor, and Xavier Villaurrutia's Nostalgia for Death. His work regularly appears in the London Review of Books and has been translated into over thirty languages.
