Information about DJS Art Foundation
These poems must already have been published in book form, right? or must be unpublished? or a mixture of both?
Hi Ms Harman, thank you for your inquiry. Actually the prize is to encourage translators to publish in book form. There are many people who translate a few poems, the prize is to encourage them to translate more and publish in book form, as stated in Chinese (以奖励翻译出版计划为主). So, published in journals(发表) — ok, but not in book form yet (出版). New translations are always welcome. Thank you again.
