Download or read book Brodsky Translating Brodsky: Poetry in Self-Translation written by Alexandra Berlina and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2014-04-24 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is poetry lost in translation, or is it perhaps the other way around? Is it found? Gained? Won? What happens when a poet decides to give his favorite Russian poems a new life in English? Are the new texts shadows, twins or doppelgangers of their originals-or are they something completely different? Does the poet resurrect himself from the death of the author by reinterpreting his own work in another language, or does he turn into a monster: a bilingual, bicultural centaur? Alexandra Berlina, herself a poetry translator and a 2012 Barnstone Translation Prize laureate, addresses these questions in this new study of Joseph Brodsky, whose Nobel-prize-winning work has never yet been discussed from this perspective.
