Description

Explore the complex relationship between language and identity in Brodsky Translating Brodsky: Poetry in Self-Translation. This academic work examines what happens when a poet chooses to breathe new life into his favorite Russian poems by translating them into English. Through a deep study of Joseph Brodsky's work, the text asks whether these new versions act as shadows, twins, or doppelgangers of the originals. Written by Alexandra Berlina, a poetry translator and 2012 Barnstone Translation Prize laureate, this book investigates the transformation of the author. It looks at whether the process of self-translation allows a poet to resurrect himself or if it creates a new, bilingual, and bicultural identity. This is an essential read for those interested in the mechanics of translation and the evolution of poetic voice across different languages.
