He was a brilliant man. Words were his life. Whether he was talking or writing they came forth clear incisive and picturesque. He loved his stage on which he always managed to be the principal character. As a professor of English Literature at Occidental College UCLA and Berkeley he influenced several generations of students…I recently found these poems of MacIntyre's buried in correspondence four decades now past to be here printed many years after his death." MacIntyre d. 1967 is primarily remembered for his translations of Baudelaire Verlaine George Goethe and Rilke.</p> Laguna Verde Imprenta,
