But you were asked about it originally. That was my point.

Le sigh.
I could, but I wasn't really asked about that in response, was I? I did response to questions you and Paul had. I'm just bored and am spamming for the hell of it here
You could be having an interesting discussion about your favourite poets. And instead you are opting for the pissing contest?

Because you should care about being intelligent, rather than appearing to be intelligent.

No one can make you care about being decent, or intelligent, or a viable member of the community.

And I was evasive about it at the time. When pressed, I answered more fully.

I disagree with your claim that there can be no value in translations.

Not "no value", but "different value" is what I would argue

I don't disagree, but you can't possibly learn all languages, yet you can read translations of all.
- 09/11/2010 10:56:58 PM

My choice, hands down, is to ignore the poetry in languages I don't read.

An English translation of The Divine Comedy was pivotal to my conversion to Christianity.
