Abstract

In the spring of 2023, the first bilingual Norwegian-Romanian anthology of poems, Briskeby blues, was published at Casa Cărții de Știință Publishing House in Cluj-Napoca, in the Nordica collection, coordinated by Sanda Tomescu Baciu and financially supported by Norwegian Literature Abroad (NORLA). The selection of the poems was made from the literary work of the Norwegian contemporary poet Jan Erik Vold (b. 1939) beginning with his debut volume in 1965, until 2011. This translation is a continuation of the translator’s PhD thesis published in 2018, namely The Poetry of Jan Erik Vold and the Norwegian Lyric Modernism in the 1960s.
