Abstract
John Donne's poetry has held a special fascination for generations of readers, and, as Antoine Berman states in his Pour une critique des traductions, it is no less of a challenge for translators. The Czech reception of Donne's poetry starts after the twentieth-century Donne revival in the English-speaking countries, and to date six translators have been more substantially involved in the rendering of his poetic works into Czech. Their choice of texts for translation, treatment of form and aesthetic preferences illustrate their widely different motivations and approaches to translational, ranging from a deep scholarly interest in the poet's work to a spontaneous unschooled translation intended for private use and spiritual sustenance.
