In his reworking\/recreating of these traditions, he looked at traditional poems, ballads, tales, legends, and revisited them through contemporary experimental language and contents. The result is a series of new texts, each the result of a contamination between the original texts and the author's own re-imagining them, in light of modern settings and contents. This work is very far from being just a \"re-writing\" of traditional materials. Rather, it is an approach in which he re-generates the old tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Guernica World Editions","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47813181603991,"sku":"9781771838153","price":1876.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781771838153.webp?v=1778334153","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/il-libro-dei-primati-the-book-of-primates-volume-63-9781771838153","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
