Book, Haroldo De Campos: transcreation[LS]

Language: Brazilian Portuguese. Published sparsely in his books of essays and translated poetry, as well as in periodicals of various natures, Haroldo de Campos' legacy to the theory of poetic translation occupies a privileged place, in our country and, certainly, in the world, among the poets who think about translation.. The scope of his reflections, which move towards establishing approximate relationships between foundations that are apparently distant in their content, reflects the broad dimension acquired by his search for the synchronous existence of references throughout his creative and translational work, which rewrites, at every moment, his renewed and extended presence.. The transit between languages, languages, times and spaces, the essential object of his occupation and distinctive mark of all his production, allowed the poet-translator a unique awareness about the translation task.. This volume fulfills the mission of bringing together, to facilitate its presence in the extensive panorama of the discussion on poetic recreation, the least accessible part of the author's essayistic achievement, which highlights the maturity of his thinking on the activity he calls transcreation - an indispensable and inexhaustible source of discovery and fertile dialogue.
