Say as You Think and Speak It from Your Souls: The Czech Academy Edition, its Proponents and Critics
Original language description
This paper examines Shakespeare translation in Bohemia and its reception in newspapers at the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries in the light of drama translation theories and concepts (e.g., that of Susan Bassnett and Dirk Delabastita). It focuses on the Shakespeare Academy Edition in contrast with the opinions of its opponents. The Academy Edition was initiated by the renowned Czech poet, playwright and translator Jaroslav Vrchlický. The main translator's burden was, however, borne by Josef Václav Sládek. Though Sládek's contribution to Czech Shakespeare translation is unique in terms of quantity and quality, it was subject to criticism by Josef Baudiš, Antonín Fencl, Otokar Fischer, and others. Despite these scathing critiques, one might, however, argue that Sládek's Shakespeare renditions have an intrinsic poetic value.
