S. Eliot's The Waste Land and Walt Whitman's Song of Myself. It delves into the works of Arab translators who were themselves modernist poets, including Badr Shakir al-Sayyab and Saadi Yusuf, and examines the translations as literary works in their own right. Through a series of case studies, Ghareeb Iskander reveals the reasons why Arab modernists were drawn to these poems, highlighting the creative manner in which the Arab poet-translators converted them into their own language. The study demonstrates that the influence exerted by the English originals stems from the innovative techniques employed by the Arab translators, making this a significant contribution to the field of translation studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780755639939\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GhareebIskander","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44094406000890,"sku":"9780755639939","price":34.26,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1662129610683_book.jpg?v=1662215604","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/english-poetry-and-modern-arabic-verse-translation-and-modernity-9780755639939","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
