This master s thesis features annotated translations of poems by William Carlos Williams (1883-1963), a prominent author in the North American literary scene whose work is not widely available in Brazil. Prompted by Williams s interest in the visual arts, this thesis focuses on the translation of Williams s poems that were inspired by the paintings of Flemish master Pieter Brueghel (1525-1569). The research begins with a summary biography of Williams, describing his relationships with contemporaries such as T. S. Eliot and Ezra Pound, in order to contextualize the development of his artistic vision. Next, Brueghel s life and work are discussed, in part to discover possible commonalities between a Renaissance painter and an early 20th-century writer and poet. A chapter discussing the thesis s theoretical foundation lists the criteria used to analyze and translate Williams s poems, based on the ideas of Haroldo de Campos, Paulo Henriques Britto, Henri Meschonnic and Charles Hartman. Sections devoted to each poem discuss the various connections between image and text, as well as the challenges and their corresponding solutions throughout the translation process, particularly regarding Williams s use of enjambment.
