Description
Today we feature poems translated this past spring and summer by some of Marcela's translation seminar students at Bar-Ilan University. After studying and discussing various translation theories, and becoming familiar with different poetic traditions and styles, these graduate and undergraduate students chose a poet and translated their work. The poems in this episode were translated by Aya Abu Riash, Yavni Bar-Yam, and Hiba Jiryis. Text: “Bigger Than All Words” by Nizzar Qabbani, translated by Aya Abu Riash “The Big Billybong” by Roy “Chicky” Arad, translated by Yavni Bar-Yam “A Prayer to the New Year” by Fadwa Tuqan, translated by Hiba Jiryis
