Paul Celan (Paul Antschel) was born 23 November 1920 in the city of Czernowitz (Bukowina).

 Paul Célan
Paul Celan was born Paul Antschel as the only child of German-speaking Jewish parents in Cernauti, in Bukovina, a part of northern Romania (earlier Czernowitz in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, now Chernovtsy, Ukraine).
Celan's friends René Char, Nelly Sachs, and other poets felt the restrictions placed on them by their identity, the "death-bringing speech", and by the history that the Holocaust represented.
Celan's relation to Judaism was complicated but he often brought Jewish themes into his work and he wrote also in Hebrew some ''pained scrawlings'', apparently during a month-long psychiatric stay in 1965.

 Paul Celan's readings of Marina Tsvetayeva
Celan did not translate any of the works of this master of Russian language and lyrics, and I have never found any signs of an attempt at such a translation among his unpublished papers.
With the aid of Celan’s personal library, which was deposited in the German Literary Archive in Marbach in 1990 and made available there for research, I was able to at least partially trace which of Tsvetayeva's texts Celan had devoted the greatest attention to.
When Celan’s dignity as a poet was publicly questioned -- as it was in connection with the discussion over the accusation of plagiarism --, he felt that his very existence as a person was put in doubt.

 Paul Celan
Paul Celan (1920-70), the pseudonym of Paul Antschel, was born in Czernovitz, in Romania, of German-speaking Jewish parents, on November 23, 1920.
War intervened and Celan returned to Romania, where his parents died under the Nazi occupation, and Celan was interned for 18 months before escaping to the Red Army.
Celan still wrote in German, but it was now a reworked, enigmatic and self-questioning German, lapsing into silence or repeating itself like a psalm that will reveal its meaning only with harsh experience, in the eternity of God's time.

 Romanian Poems - Paul Celan
Paul Celan's most famous poems and translations were written in German -- his true mother-tongue, despite growing up in post-Hapsburg Bukovina, where Romanian had been installed as the official language.
Cassian's renderings are slightly more approachable (she wouldn't think of writing "arsoned", for example, opting for "burned" (which admittedly probably also doesn't quite capture Celan's "incendiate")), though for the most part the renderings are very similar; still, a few words on what separates this volume from those would have been of interest.
