| In Artful Dodge 36/37, our Poetry as
Translators section featured the work of two American poets who are
both "expatriates" -- Georgia Scott, born in the U.S., who now lives in
Gdansk, Poland, where she continues to write and publish in English as
well as translate from Polish poetry; and Nicholas Kolumban, born in
Hungary, who writes and publishes poetry in English while also
functioning as a prominent translator from Hungarian. Re-printed here
along with their own poems and translations are their essays, The Native Tourist
and The Place
Where You Live, which describe their experiences as
writers living among languages and landscapes they were not born into,
but have come to learn. |
