Scholarship

Two interesting articles on translation:

Peter Bien: Reminiscences of a translator from the modern Greek
(translator of Kazantakis and Cavafy stumbles through some legal and creative issues in translating modern greek)

Mark Harman: Restranslating Franz Kafka’s Castle
(intro. to mark harman's new translation, prompted by a new manuscript of Kafka's)

Sal, I especially thought of you on the last one, after your kafka book. I can't upload things onto this page, so I will send it to you via email.

Both of these books come from a collection called Essays in the art and theory of translation eds. Grenoble and Kopper, published by the Edwin Mellen Press, whatever that is.
