• Slavic Department Lecture: "Whose Tongue Is it Anyway?: On Poets Translating Themselves and Others"

  Time

  4:30 pm

  Location

  Lucy Ellis Lounge, LCLB

  Translators who translate from their “first” language and into their acquired tongue have been marginalized. This talk aims to build on the work of Elizabeth Klosty Beaujour, Adrian Wanner, and others in looking at several Polish and Polish-American poets for whom literary multilingualism and translation are two sides of the same coin.
