JOVAN HRISTIĆ (1933-2002) is perhaps the last great Eastern European poet who is not known in the West. One may say of him, what Auden said of Cavafy, that his attitude toward poetic vocation was an aristocratic one. He wrote as if the ancient Greek and Roman poets were his contemporaries. A wise man who lived in troubled times, he left us poems of uncommon eloquences and great beauty. The publication of these translations is major literary event. Charles Simic
