translate William Carlos Williams’s “Landscape with the Fall of Icarus” (it doesn’t have to be exactly right, but I want you to do this because translation is a critical method) — the poem is in the PDF you downloaded for today. The file is called “4 poems”
2) Write a whole paragraph saying what specificities of the poem emerge from the translation process, both on a formal and on a semantic level
3) Compare Brueghel’s painting Landscape with the Fall of Icarus and William Carlos Williams’s “Landscape with the fall of Icarus”. The method goes like this:
a- you will describe the painting
b- you will look into how the poem describes the painting and how it resembles it
c- you will try to say why the poem does things that the painting doesn’t do.
