The case studies of Czesław Miłosz and Roman Brandstaetter will serve to illustrate both the artistic and supportive function of their translation endeavours completed under the patronage of the communist state. By delving into the rich archival material (published as well as unpublished), I would like to focus on the political and social circumstances that determined Miłosz’s and Brandstaetter’s routes towards translating Shakespeare. * Artykuł powstał w oparciu o wyniki badań przeprowadzonych w ramach finansowanego przez Narodowe Centrum Nauki projektu badawczego Repozytorium polskich przekładów dramatów Williama Shakespeare’a w XX i XXI wieku: zasoby, strategia i recepcja (NCN Opus 14, 2017/27/B/HS2/00853).}, doi = {10.4467/16891864PC.22.012.17173}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/przekladaniec/article/panowie-i-panstwo-na-szekspirze-czeslaw-milosz-i-roman-brandstaetter-jako-tlumacze-szekspirowskich-dziel-w-polskiej-rzeczpospolitej-ludowej} }
