| Summary: | Presentation of an unpublished translation of three poems from the series “The Truth About God” in the book Glass, Irony & God (1995) by Canadian writer Anne Carson. By choosing to translate these three poems we aim to present the Brazilian reader with aesthetic procedures that the author uses in her poems to expand the imaginary about God. Considering that the word God is, today in Brazil, in the mouths of high-level government officials, it seems relevant to know how poets manipulate this collective imaginary and how it appears in the translation choices of texts into Brazilian Portuguese. |
