Translation of poetry : trends and perspectives

Abstract EN

It is very complicated to find a comprehensive definition of translation, it is an art characterized by creativity to transfer a picture or word to another word and word in a second language.

this applies also to literary translation, especially poetic ones, contrary to scientific or political translation, it is possible to control the words according to the culture of the linguistic and grammatical translator.

it is also necessary that the translator be familiar with the two languages translated from it and with modern techniques and advanced in the art of translation and b a high degree of culture in different walks of life so that he can access the world and imagination of the poet or the writer to translate the text.

this is what many critics and scholars have reached for this literary color, and it does not just convey words; literal translation does not give the translated text its right or artistic color, its extent and impact in its original language.

literary translation is perhaps one of the most difficult types of translations.

it relies heavily on the taste and the imagination of the writer.

he was a poet, a poet or a novelist, and this in itself requires a creative spirit to be the image of translation and literary material.

the latter depends on what he studied and read and what he studied in the stages of studying the language, but if he is a poet, too many images and meanings will change but without prejudice to the essence of the translated text.
