This article analyzes the translation poetics and the translation context of Guatemalan author Alaide Foppa (1914) who lived in exile in Mexico. In 1980 she was kidnapped in Guatemala and the resting place of her remains is still unknown. Foppa was a woman of many talents: she was a poet, activist, feminist, art critic, editor, academic and translator. The focus is on three of the available poetry translations, from French, Italian and English: Paul Eluard, Michelangelo and Mary Oxlie of Morpet. The analysis of paratexts such as prologues and essays will help reveal Foppa’s vision on poetry translation and translation strategies. The analysis shows a tendency towards “recreative translation” (Jones 2011) and “translation as a personal oeuvre” (Campos 1996). At the same time, the paper aims at exploring to what extent Foppa’s situation as an exile as well as her multilingualism had an impact on her work as a translator
