Abstract:

George Seferis and Odysseus Elytis gave the Modern Greek language a 
substantial corpus of translations from poets working in French, Italian, 
Spanish, Russian, English and Ancient Greek. However, the translation 
practices of these two Nobel Prize-winning poets have long been 
inadequately observed. The present volume provides a close examination of 
Seferis' and Elytis' inter- and intra-lingual verse translations with the aim of 
discovering their translating techniques and their personal and public goals in 
pursuing the act of translation. Similarities and differences between the two 
poets are highlighted comparatively. The methodological approach, informed 
by recent findings in the field of descriptive translation studies and 
polysystem theories, investigates the function of translation in the target 
culture and the relation of translation to original poetic production. Throughout 
the book the study of translation is shown to be a powerful tool for the study 
of Modern Greek literature and its relation to other literatures and movements 
of the time, while the task of the translator and the task of the writer unfold as 
two components of the same endeavour. 

 
Contents: 

Seferis' translation of The Waste Land 
- Translation as acclimatization: The intralingual verse translations of Seferis 
and Elytis 
- Translation and intertextuality
- Seferis' notes for an essay on translation 
- Two unpublished translations by George Seferis.

Literature at King's College London with a four-year grant from the Greek 
State Scholarship Foundation. Currently she lives in Athens and works for the
