Title
F.R. Scott as Translator
Abstract
The author begins this essay by stating that Montreal poet and constitutional lawyer F.R. Scott's starting place, to which he always returned, was Quebec. He points out that unlike so many Anglophone Quebecers of the period under review, Scott and his generation of poets did not choose to ignore the duality of Quebec. The author notes that Scott (1899-1985), A.J.M. Smith (1902-1980), and John Glassco (1909-1981) were among the first English Quebecers to take the Francophone culture of the province seriously and to become intimately engaged in translating it.
