NIELATWY DIALOG. O KORESPONDENCJI KARLA DEDECIUSA I CZESLAWA MILOSZA/Uneasy Dialogue. The Correspondence of Karl Dedecius and Czeslaw Milosz

This article comments on the correspondence of Karl Dedecius and Czeslaw Milosz which started in 1958 and lasted for over 40 years. The letters were collected and published in 2011 by Przemyslaw Chojnowski. They constitute an interesting material for translation researchers. The article shows the history of a difficult dialogue between the Polish writer and his German translator, in particular their divergent interpretations of the German literary field within which Dedecius tried to place Milosz's work.
