商品簡介
This book is the record of an apprenticeship in translating Baudelaire, and in translating poetry more generally. Re-assessing the translator's task and art, Scott (European literature, University of East Anglia) explores the various theoretical approaches as he goes in search of his own style of translation. But, equally, he undertakes detailed analysis of the seventeen poems of which he offers renderings. Hence, the book is as much an evaluation of Baudelaire's writing as it is of the available ways of re-imagining that writing in another language. Distributed by David Brown Book Co. Annotation c.
