Hello.
 
 To  Proffesor  R. I. Caddel :
I  wanted  to  say  that  poetry  of  Pound , Bunting , Zukofsky , Olson &
others  in  " normal  conditions "  / without  wars  and  cold  wars /
would  be  translated  into  polish  mostly  around  1940 - 1960 .
But  in  the  stalinist  times  between  1949 and 1957  there  was  no
single  article  about  Pound  allowed  in  the  newspapers .
This  is  the  reason  why  growin  interest  in  poetry  of  abovementioned
writers  we  have  right  now  in  the  90- tees .
Newspaper  No 1.  here  in  Poland  is  called "Literatura  na  Swiecie"
-"Literature  in  the  World" - they  print  Pound  from 1972 - a  year
they  founded  the  newspapier .
Mr  Engelking  for  sure  printed  his  translations  of  Bunting  here
but  I  missed  it  somehow - maybe  because  I  spend  a  couple  of  years
abroad .
I  will  check  what  was  translated  and  when .
Last  year  I  read  in  "LnS"  "Homage  to  Sextus  Propertius" - done  by
Andrzej  Sosnowski  -  a  rising  star  of  Poundism  in  Poland .
They  prestented  also  Zukofsky's  Katullus  translations  in  english
language .
                                           Your  sincerely
                                                 Pawel  Karwowski
