The “Benno Geiger” Prize and Fund<\/strong><\/p>\n

Italian translations of poetic works from ancient, medieval and modern Western languages \u200b\u200bthat have appeared in the last year and regularly on the market are invited to participate in the Benno Geiger Award. This seventh edition was attended by 20 works<\/strong>, reported by 17 publishing houses<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Fondazione<\/span> Giorgio Cini\u00a0 established in 2014 the international poetic translation prize in memory of Benno Geiger, by the will of his daughter Elsa Geiger Ari\u00e8 (born Elisabetta Paolina Geiger), with the aim of enhancing and studying her father’s literary fund, she herself donated to the Foundation in the late 1970s.<\/p>\n

The collection, which has since been preserved on the Island of San Giorgio Maggiore, includes various materials: letters, publications, photographs, drafts, notes. The most important part are the letters that Benno Geiger exchanged during his life with over 500 authoritative correspondents: from Hofmannsthal to Rilke, from Kokoschka to Bernard, from Perosi to Bossi, from Pascoli to Borgese and Comisso.<\/p>\n

To the letters are added some publications of Geiger, preparatory manuscripts of his German translations of Dante, Petrarca and Pascoli, correspondence with editors and other minor material. The Foundation also has a portrait of Benno Geiger painted by Emile Bernard, a gift from his daughter Elsa.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":54116,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"cini_tax_event_categories":[1470],"cini_tax_institutes":[],"cini_tax_event_locations":[],"class_list":["post-77416","cini_events","type-cini_events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","cini_tax_event_categories-events"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nBenno Geiger Poetry Translation Prize\u00a02020 - Fondazione Giorgio Cini<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cini.it\/en\/eventi\/77416\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Benno Geiger Poetry Translation Prize\u00a02020 - Fondazione Giorgio Cini\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The awards ceremony for the\u00a0Benno Geiger Poetry Translation Prize\u00a02020 will be held at 5 pm on February 26, 2021 at 5.00 pm.
