Pursuing the Impossible: Poetry and the Art of Translation
Manage episode 414566910 series 1820282
Forrest Gander and Olivia E. Sears, moderated by CJ Evans
Voltaire once claimed, "It is impossible to translate poetry. Can you translate music?" If that's true, these talented translators have certainly achieved the impossible—in this session, they'll share insights into how they did so. Olivia Sears and Forrest Gander will read from their translations and also engage in conversation—moderated by CJ Evans, poet and editorial director of Two Lines Press—about the unique (if not impossible) challenges and rewards that poetry grants the translator.
