In celebrating the academic career and practice of a distinguished scholar of French literature, this volume concentrates on one of Peter Broomes major preoccupations and attainments: translation. Eschewing a dogmatic, theoretical approach, the contributors (former colleagues and students) tackle four rich areas of study: modern anglophone poets reactions to, and translations of, authors with whom they have closely identified (Racine, the Symbolists, SaintJohn Perse, Valry); problematics of translating specific poets of recent centuries (Rimbaud, Mallarm, Valry, Csaire, some contemporary poets); reception and interaction in two foreign countries (Australia, Spain); and a more fluid interpretation of translation, moving the notion across into wider realms of literary expression (Mallarm, Proust, Assia Djebar). A focalising feature, punctuating the volume, are Peter Broomes own translations of hitherto unpublished poems by five major contemporary French writers: JeanPaul Auxemry, MarieClaire Bancquart, Louise Herlin, Vnus KhouryGhata and JeanCharles Vegliante. The book thus intertwines theory and practice in a nonprescriptive manner which invites further elaboration and analysis.
