Abstract

Hinrich Hudde reports on his own experience as a translator of poetry, mainly referring to Christina Rossetti. The author explains the factors relevant for the evaluation of different options in the translation process and presents a detailed analysis of the choices made by other translators. He also comments on the importance of different factors relevant to the background of the translator, where he assigns a relatively insignificant role to translation theory.
