Jean de Sponde, Poetic translation, French renaissanceAbstract
In this work, I present four “Sonnets on Death”, written by the French poet Jean de Sponde (1557-1595) – those numbered as 1, 2, 5 and 6 – which I translated to Brazilian Portuguese based on the perspective of poetic translation. Here I’m calling poetic translation the act of translation which is interested not only in conveying meaning, but in being a poiéin (as the Greeks would call it), a fabrication that may respond to the complex entity of a poem and its effects, considering both its form and content. In addition, I also include by way of introduction short biographical notes about this rather unknown poet.
