Пожалуй, лучшее из читанного за последнее время по теме - сборник высказываний поэтов и переводчиков, которым не лень было говорить о том, как (а некоторые и зачем) они это делают. Звезды тут практически все - и всё интересно, если даже не все убеждают в легитимности своих окончательных версий (там, где я был способен это оценить). Поэтическая кухня без соплей и помаваний руками, Очень Рекомендуется.
