| 520 | |a Born in Amazonia is a book of poetry written by a Guyanese Canadian poet living in Ottawa. In order to facilitate the reading of this book by Brazilian students, we are translating the book into Portuguese. In this work we are interested in discussing the process of translating of Cyril Dabydeen’s writing on the Amazon into Portuguese, in order to serve as text to be read by Amazonian students, therefore, by readers involved in Amazonian culture. We explore the Amazonian myths present in Dabydeen’s writing, so that we can offer the Amazonian Brazilian readers a plausible, pleasurable and acceptable text. We suggest that the translation into Portuguese may contribute for the students to reading a Canadian author, born in Guyana writing about the Amazon. In addition, we argue that the process of translation involves a study of Amazonian culture, history and Amazonian myth (such as Jaguar and Cobra Grande). Studies on Myth and Mythology, therefore are important for our discussion. We also consider some theories of translation, such as proposed by Susan Bassnet and Barbara Godard among others. Finally, we argue that translating Dabydeen’s Born in Amazonia in Amazon region means rethinking Amazonian myths. It is, we believe, a kind of discovery of Amazon by Amazonian and by South-American promoting a new dialogue among Amazonian people and new ties among Americas. Therefore, translation is in this sense, a process of decolonization and, as Ramón Grosfoguel (2011) asserts contributes to "an inter-cultural North-South dialogue cannot be achieved without a decolonization of power relations in the modern world". | ||
