Poetry Breakfast: Translation the Image: Tadeusz Dąbrowski, Antonia Lloyd-Jones, Nikola Madzirov & Bernard O'Donoghue

Continuing the fascinating discussion in our Sunday Poetry Breakfast at StAnza 2011, this is an opportunity to join with a fresh panel of poets and translators as they explore the pitfalls and barriers to moving poetry between languages. Can poetic images always translate? What is added and what proves intransigent? We ask what are the key decisions that must be made along the way to ensure a perfect a marriage between the two voices involved in the translation of a poem. Start your festival day by joining this lively and informal discussion over coffee and pastries. Presented with the support of the Polish Cultural Institute in London, Kingarroch at the Byre and Fisher & Donaldson, and in partnership with the Southbank Centre and Maintenant. Part of StAnza: Scotland's International Poetry Festival.
