I manifesti e la poesia di Oswald de Andrade in italiano: considerazioni sulle intenzioni del testo, la traduzione annotata.

Abstract

Considerations on the italian translation of Oswald de Andrade’s poetry and artistic manifestos (in La cultura cannibale, Meltemi 1999) lead to reflect on the annotated translation, seen as a new presentation of the text. The question of fidelity and infidelity inserts itself into the matter of literary fruition, since the very presence of notes — necessary for a better reception of a foreign text — influences the quality of reading by indirectly altering the perception of its “tone” and its style.
