Adonis på svenska - en översättningskritik

• This is a case study of how the Arab poet Adonis has been translated into Swedish. The theoretical framework is the old issue of "untranslatability". the method applied is a close reading of selected poems by Adonis in their published Swedish translations. what kind of translation losses have occured in the transposition of the complex originals? The study examines this question through four critical focuses: 1) grammar and semantics, 2) intertextuality and culture, 3) poetic form, and 4) editing and selection. The analysis shows that "Adonis in Swedish" is a very different poet from "Adonis in Arabic" due to the combined effect of manipulations occuring in all these fields.
