Comment in Motion, Vol. III, No. 3 (July 1967)

Journal Issue

This number makes Rosalía Castro the center of its experiment, carrying 3 poems—from From “En Las Orillas Del Sar” to From “En Las Orillas Del Sar”—into Grover Jacoby’s fluctuant syllabic measure. Translations of Gustavo Bécquer, Heinrich Heine, J. W. von Goethe broaden the comparison, so the issue reads as a set of practical tests rather than a single showcase. Reactions to Fluctuant Syllabic Verse and Comment in Motion supplies the turning point, explaining what the verse itself is trying to preserve: movement, stress, and rhetorical force across languages. The result is both a small anthology and a compact demonstration of translation as an argument about poetic time.
