    Tractors and Translators: Langston Hughes in Cold War Czechoslovakia

  • Original language description

    The poet Langston Hughes was central to mid-century transnational exchanges and Cold War translation. This essay examines the poet&apos;s centrality through a new lens, presenting a case study on Czech translations of Hughes&apos;s poetry between 1950 and 1963 that draws on archival materials, especially the correspondence between Hughes and one of his Czech translators, Jiří Valja; paratexts; and analysis of translations. The essay shows how Hughes&apos;s poetry was translated into Czech against the backdrop of Cold War publishing politics and aesthetic norms, how the translations of Hughes&apos;s work operated in these contexts, and how Cold War translation emerged as a specific site of inquiry with its own challenges, contacts, and practices.
