'Polyphony' is concerned with voices: the local, the foreign, the
native, the acquired - and the strange hybrids that come into being
when the language of home is crossed with that of abroad. All
poetic language is essentially foreign - 'otherwhereish', as Robert
Graves said. This issue attends to the differences of voices -
within individual poems, in the interplay of poet and translator
and among various translations. It is an anthology in celebration
of variety, without suppressing tones, dialects and utterances it
might disturb us to hear.
