‘The translator’s extraordinary artistry’. An Interview with Magdalena Heydel, Conducted by Karolina Król

Abstract

The interview focuses mostly on Stanisław Barańczak’s methods of translation and his translation oeuvre. Similarities between Polish and American literary life also play a significant role in the text. Another important issue is Barańczak’s and Czesław Miłosz’s correspondence which has not been fully published and remains stored in Beinecke Library archives.
