Summary
Perhaps the main theme running through the chapters of this book is that by exploring the work of the poet translators, we can learn something about the nature and the "making" of poetry. It is also my hope that these essays, like those by other writers in my earlier collection, On Translation, may add a little to our increasing knowledge of the process and theory of translation.
