Poezja polska w Rumunii. Przekład i recepcja (2000–2024)
Polish Poetry in Romania. Translation and Reception (2000–2024)

Summary/Abstract: Translations of Polish poetry into Romanian over the past two decades have been characterized by increasing dynamism and a diversity of poetic voices – from classic to contemporary authors. This trend is reflected not only in translation practices but also in local reception, indicating a significant improvement compared to the previous century, when poetic translations were relatively scarce in relation to other literary forms. Since 2000, several anthologies, over forty single-author volumes, and numerous poem selections published in journals have appeared. These publications – accompanied by critical commentaries – provide a solid basis for summarizing the current state of knowledge and identifying key trends and challenges that shape future translation efforts and their reception within the Romanian literary field. The article explores the evolving landscape of contemporary Polish poetry and highlights the role of the translator, who not only selects and renders poems but also crafts accompanying texts (introductions, afterwords, critical essays) that significantly shape how translated works are perceived. The study adopts an analytical-documentary approach, incorporating both quantitative and qualitative analysis of Polish poetry translated into Romanian. The conclusions drawn from this bibliographic review may serve as a starting point for future research and syntheses on literary transfers between Poland and Romania. For broader context, the article includes an appendix listing translations from 2000 to 2024, limited to single-author volumes and anthologies.
