abstract = {Brodsky’s poems tend to become more sexually explicit in self-translation from Russian into English than in their original versions. The greater permissiveness of the target culture and the opportunities presented by English vocabularly played a role in this development – however, the present article argues that in Brodsky’s writing, and particularly in his self-translations, sexual imagery is often a means to meditate on such topics as the nature of time and human consciousness. The Brodskian manner of connecting sexuality and philosophy has more precedents in Anglophone than Russophone culture; moreover, word play being a vehicle of thinking for Brodsky, such expressions as “wet dreams” prompted him to develop complex compositions “consisting of love, filthy dreams, fear of death, ashes” and time.},
