Abstract
This research project examines the translations of
two poems for translation equivalence and shifts in
equivalence. After examining types of equivalence as
applied to the translation of poetry, the aim will be to
Identify that, because the two poems chosen for analysis
are of different types, they require equivalence on
different levels. The practical analysis and assessment
of the two poems and their translations will illustrate
the issues raided and establish exactly which levels of
equivalence are required and/or possible in the
translation of each one of these poems.
