the only thing a translation can accurately convey to a reader is the translator's reading of the source text
thats why good translators doing the same text have 5-8% variance rate while both being "accurate" in business terms
and its why some translations age poorly and need redoing after 20years
to elaborate on this one a bit:
in the translation business "accuracy" just means the copyright holder, who is almost never the author, approves
in criticism it means the critic agrees with the translators choices
working on it

theres no such thing as accuracy in translation
pick one:
american literature from 1947 onward is and has been a form of counter-insurgency
or
Frank O'hara was CIA
