Summary/Abstract: The issue of translation, shortly commented upon via Quirk, Levy, Bassnett, Bell, Dubois, Chițoran and Bantaș, has been and still is a solid background for approaching poetic contributions, in our case, Saunders’ poetry translated into Romanian. For the aesthetic value of the volume entitled No Doves / Fără porumbei to be properly revealed, sound patterns as stylistic instances suggesting the dimension of space and time, these two pure forms of intuition in Kant’s philosophy, will be identified and analysed in relation with meaning via Jung's archetypes and Bachelard's aesthetics.
