Print The Sparring Poet: Zbigniew Herbert Books Review of: The Collected Poems: 1956-1998 By BENJAMIN IVRY February 7, 2007 A D V E R T I S E M E N T A D V E R T I S E M E N T To an extent rare in our age of pampered poets who are tenured professors, the Polish poet Zbigniew Herbert (1924 –1998) combined a life of torment with writings distinguished by equanimity, indeed ataraxia, a term from Stoic philosophy which describes transcendence of material things. Herbert was a bellicose Stoic who bragged about fighting duels over matters of honor in life, and did the same in his poems. An overdue assemblage of his published verse, "The Collected Poems: 1956-1998" (Ecco, 586 pages, $34.95), reveals a writer of courageous strength, willfully unhysterical at a time marked by war and communist tyranny, as well as long experience of physical and emotional suffering. In his last collection, after many hospitalizations, Herbert's poem "Breviary" finds subjects for praise even in ill health:

In a 1984 interview, Herbert discussed what distinguishes him from contemporaries like Milosz: "Writing and in this I disagree with everybody must teach men soberness," he said, adding emphatically: "to be awake." For Herbert, who knew along with Goya that the sleep of reason produces monsters and tyranny, "to be awake" means to refuse the witchcraft of reduction and rhetoric and to seek instead the beguiling magic of the mundane and close to hand:

Free counter Essay: Zbigniew Herbert: Dutch Apocrypha Prose: Perpetuum Mobile The Hell of Insects Long Gerrit Home ... Epilogue John Carpenter Zbigniew Herbert: Dutch Apocrypha ZBIGNIEW HERBERT'S SERIES "Dutch Apocrypha," written during the late 1970s, is intriguing. Why did one of the finest living Polish poets turn to a parable-like prose genre he calls "apocrypha" and why did he then choose to write about a small country like Holland in the 1600s? True, a collection of Herbert's essays on Dutch art will soon be published by Ecco Press, to be entitled Still Life with a Bridle , and containing the "Dutch Apocrypha." Also, Herbert had written other non-Dutch "apocrypha," for a volume tentatively titled to appear in Polish. But he abandoned the project several years ago, and there is no sign he will return to it, at least in the form he imagined in the early 1970s. The term "apocrypha" is Herbert's own label to designate an event from history that he himself interprets, feeling that he must re-present history because conventional historians have misled us. Herbert's subjects come from Western European history, from Chinese history, from mythologyall imbued with his experience of Communist rule in post-World War II Poland. But Herbert's continuing fascination with Dutch artto the extent that he would write a book length collection of essays on the subjectis perhaps more difficult to explain. For more than a decade, Herbert had been speaking about "a book on Dutch art" he hoped to write. This was to be a major scholarly effort, requiring extensive investigation of seventeenth century documents and looking at paintings in museums. The center of his interest was clearly the Holland of the Golden Age of the seventeenth century. He was especially attracted to the earlier, anonymous Dutch painters who did not call attention to their personalitiesas well as to later artists like Vermeer or Van Goyen who had found a closeness to the contours of life Herbert thought had been denied to more recent artists.

He published few poems in the communist-inspired epoch of socialist realism in the early 1950s. In 1956 he published the collection Struna Swiatla (Chord of Light, 1956), which was soon followed by Hermes, Pies i Gwiazda (Hermes, a Dog and a Star, 1957) and Studium Przedmiotu (A Study of the Object, 1961).
