Response Paper #2
For your second response paper, choose one poem either by Gabriela Mistral or Pablo Neruda and paraphrase it. Rewrite it in your own words in the form of a prose paragraph. Then in a second paragraph try to articulate what your paragraph left out. What gets lost in translation? What you have done in paraphrasing the poem is remove many of its formal and poetic devices. What do these devices contribute to the meaning of the poem or the experience of the reader?
