Polish term or phrase: pseudonimować
"Nawet jeśli w Rozmowach z astronautami pseudonimuje ona współczesne relacje między centrum Europy i jej wschodnimi rubieżami, to nie problemy społeczne wynikające z tej relacji interesują ją najbardziej."

Chodzi o sztukę teatralną o relacjach Europy Zachodniej z Wschodnią, gdzie te relacje są w pewnym sensie nie oddane dosłownie, a właśnie... pseudonimowane :-)

Any help greatly appreciated...

to metaphorize


Explanation:

Bo poezja to wrażliwość. I ta wrażliwość szuka swojego języka. Języka nie wprost. Proza nazywa, poezja pseudonimuje, czyli nie może obejść się bez metafory. - http://biuroliterackie.pl/przystan/czytaj.php?site=260&co=tx...

metaphorize

transitive verb
: to express metaphorically
intransitive verb
: to make metaphors

-----------

If you want to write metaphorically, you have to think metaphorically. To think metaphorically, you have to think in images rather than words. - http://creativxpert.com/creativity/creative-writing-and-meta...
