Abstract:

Poetry is a highly valued form of human expression, and poems are 
challenging texts to translate. For both reasons, people willingly work long 
and hard to translate them, for little pay but potentially high personal 
satisfaction. This book shows how experienced poetry translators translate 
poems and bring them to readers, and how they not only shape new poems, 
but also help communicate images of the source culture. It uses cognitive 
and sociological translation-studies methods to analyse real data, most of it 
from two contrasting source countries, the Netherlands and Bosnia. Case 
studies, including think-aloud studies, analyse how translators translate 
poems. In interviews, translators explain why and how they translate. And a 
17-year survey of a country's poetry-translation output explores how 
translators work within networks of other people and texts - publishing teams, 
fellow translators, source-culture enthusiasts, and translation readers and 
critics. In mapping the whole sweep of poetry translators' action, from micro-
cognitive to macro-social, this book gives the first translation-studies 
overview of poetry translating since the 1970s.
