Hello!

I'm new here! I'd like to contribute! Is there a Portuguese Poetry or Prose I can translate and/or record?

Thank you!

Hello Alessandra,
For this collection, you can just choose any poem that you'd like to record. You don't have to claim anything, just go for it! (If you read through the thread above (especially the first one) you'll see what I mean). There's no translation involved in this project, it's just read the poem in the language that you want.
But be careful: the poem (or the translated poem) has to be published and in the public domain (we don't read our own translations or our own poems)! If you're unsure what that means, you can always check first by posting in the thread.

Want to know more about recording for Librivox: look at this wiki: http://librivox.org/wiki/moin.cgi/NewbieGuideToRecording

Hi,

I recorded a German poem for this collection:

URL for the file on the Uploader - http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/lz/german_knabeimmoor_drostehuelshoff_hok.mp3
Reader's name to use on the catalogue page - Hokuspokus
Reader's personal URL to use on the catalogue page (if you have one) -
Link to online text - http://www.zeno.org/Literatur/M/Droste-H%C3%BClshoff,+Annette+von/Gedichte/Gedichte+(Die+Ausgabe+von+1844)/
Title of poem - Der Knabe im Moor
Name of author - Annette von Droste-Hülshoff (Droste-Huelshoff)

Don't worry that Zeno took it from a book published 1973. The poem is first published 1841 and sure pd.

Hello Chamberlain,
Thank you for that recording! It sounds very good again, and it's all good to go in the catalog.

(PL means proof-listened: I listened to it to catch any big stumbles, or a forgotten intro or something - so I can do that even if I don't know the language...

Hello again

After searching high and low for Indonesian public domain poems, I have finally found one entitled Hidup (this recording is also read by my friend Christianese [no_forum_name_24]):

http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/lz/indonesian_hidup_santosa_vu.mp3

Runtime: 37s

Size: 591KB

URL: http://puisiderwelt.blogspot.com/

The URL above is the blog address of yet another friend of mine. So far, it only contains this poem (found in some books in Indonesia).

Thank you,
Varra Unreal

Hello lezer,

I recorded two Dutch poems:
- Egidiuslied, one the most famous and most beautiful Middle Dutch poems by an anonymous author. The page where I found its text also provides a modern Dutch translation, some background information and a musical rendition of the poem. My (in comparison poor) rendition is 01:13 minutes long and 1,17 MB.
- De Zwane by Albrecht Rodenbach. It's text can be found here. My recording is 1:07 minutes long and 1,03 MB.

Julie.

Thank you all for your new contributions! They're in the magic window - and they are all PL-OK!

Hi ezwa,
Just listened to your poem La mare aux grenouilles - it sounds great, as usual

Only, I think the first 2 verses are missing? Could you check that out?

Anna

lezer · Post by **lezer** » June 29th, 2008, 12:49 am

Aldor, Hokuspokus, Jc - I had some time this morning for a PL of your recordings - they are all PL-OK! Good work.

Hello Anna,

Well, if you haven't noticed, the second poem by Christianese is not in Javanese as usual but in Indonesian instead.

Thank you,
Varra Unreal
