  • Poems on Liberty
    poems on liberty reflections for Belarus Translated by Vera Rich Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty Sweet Land Of Liberty As our listeners well know, Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty focuses primary attention on the development of democracy, human rights issues, and the war on terror. RFE/RL broadcasts news, not the arts. Belarus, however, is the sole country in Europe to which our station is forced to broadcast from abroad like in the Cold War era. Belarus is also one of the few countries in our broadcast region where a poet today can be imprisoned for his or her writings. Thus, it is particularly fitting that the Belarus Service chose to devote several minutes of airtime each day during the whole year to publicize the work of poets whose voices would otherwise be strangled and silenced. Indeed, it is RFE/RL’s mission “to seek, receive and impart information and ideas regardless of frontiers.” To that end, the ideas expressed in the “Poems on Liberty” are no less important than those found elsewhere in our programming, and are part of Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. RFE/RL received over a thousand poems on the subject of freedom. Poets from Belarus as well as some three dozen POEMS ON LIBERTY: Reflections for Belarus. other countries — from amateurs to Nobel laureates — (Liberty Library.

This volume represents the collaborative efforts between students and CSU, Chico’s dedicated faculty. The papers presented here are a small sampling of the student work done at Chico, but they highlight the diversity and the value of historical inquiry. For many of the authors in this volume seeing their work published is a new experience, while others are a familiar name to this journal. In either case, their work is appreciated and it is both my honor and that of this year’s editorial board, to highlight their writing. This volume was made possible through the continued enthusiasm and support for student work on the behalf of the entire history department. I would also like to specifically thank Dr. Stephen Lewis for his advice and support throughout this process. Dr. Laird Easton for his dedication to The Chico Historian. Dr. Jason Nice and Dr. Jessica Clark for their constant support to students. Professor John Boyle for his continuing support. Claudia Beaty for the million little things she has done to assist this journal. Finally, I would like to thank my editorial board for their hard work throughout this semester.

  • Alexander Nadson BISHOP CESLAUS SIPOVICH
    Alexander Nadson BISHOP CESLAUS SIPOVICH 1. The First steps Ceslaus Sipovich was born on 8 December 1914 into a farming family at Dziedzinka, a small village in the north-western corner of Belarus which at that time formed part of the Russian Empire. As the result of changes brought about by the First World War and the Russian Revolution, the territory of Belarus was partitioned in March 1921 by the Treaty of Riga between its neighbours. Its western regions came under the Polish rule, and the eastern part became the Belarusian Soviet Republic, a constituent part of the Soviet Union. It was a cynical deal which paid no regard to the interests of Belarusians. The Poles who were in a stronger position than the Soviets, but who had only recently regained their independence, were afraid of having a large ethnic minority within their borders and carved up for themselves only that portion of Belarus which they thought they could easily assimilate. In the words of the Polish politician Stanislaw Grabski, they "cut out the Belarusian abscess". The great majority of Belarusians (over 70 percent) were Orthodox, with a sizable minority (about 25 percent) Roman Catholics, most of whom lived in the western regions which after 1920 came under Polish rule. The Orthodox were mainly descendants of Catholics of Byzantine rite or, as they were known, Greek Catholics or Uniates. In 1839 the Greek Catholic Church in Belarus was suppressed by the Russian authorities and forcibly incorporated into the Russian Orthodox Church. Some of the Greek Catholics, in order to safeguard their faith, secretly managed to change their rite, thus increasing the number of Roman Catholics in Belarus.

  • Vera Rich As a Translator of Taras Shevchenko: Working
    Vera Rich as a Translator of Taras Shevchenko: Working Towards Greater Semantic and Rhythmic Accurateness Dążeniu do większej semantycznej i rytmicznej dokładności: Vera Rich jako tłumaczka Tarasa Szewczenko Lada Kolomiyets TARAS SHEVCHENKO NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF KYIV, UKRAINE Keywords Taras Shevchenko, Vera Rich, verse translation, retranslation, self-editing, rhythmic pattern, semantic accurateness, hermeneutic motion, interanimation Słowa kluczowe Taras Szewczenko, Vera Rich, wierszowe tłumaczenie, ponownie tłu- maczenie, autokorekta, rytm wiersza, trafność semantyczna, hermeneutyczny ruch, interanimacja Abstract This article considers particular nodal points in the translational career of British journalist and poet-translator Faith Elizabeth Joan Rich, better known by her pen name Vera, and the pivotal aspects of her translation strategy oriented at attaining greater semantic accuracy, which often turns out to be “an impos- sible ideal” (in her own words). Rich had been translating and retranslating the Artykuły i rozprawy works of Ukrainian Romantic poet and artist Taras Shevchenko (1814‒1861) in the endeavour to give the English readers a complete version of Shevchenko’s poetry collection “Кобзар” (“The Kobzar”). The discussion in this article ana- lyzes self-editing as an integral and never-ending stage of the translation process, viewed through the prism of George Steiner’s theory of hermeneutic motion. In particular, it focuses on the Taras Shevchenko Memorial in Washington, D.C., inscribed with 8 lines from Shevchenko’s anti-imperialist poem “The Caucasus” in the translation by Vera Rich. It also compares translation strategies of Ethel Vera Rich as a Translator of Taras Shevchenko… 43 Lilian Voynich and Vera Rich – two congenial interpretators of Shevchenko’s poem “Testament” in their striving to reflect the Ukrainian poet’s soul, mir- ror his recognizable identity, and animate in English the ST dynamic fusion of meaning and sound, verse and style.
