Oh, that'd cut down on delivery costs a fair bit, then. *NM* Legolas Send a noteboard - 20/11/2010 06:01:46 PM

Julian Barnes on translation Camilla - 18/11/2010 05:49:37 PM 948 Views
That's a very interesting article. Though it does sound like he'd never be happy. Legolas - 18/11/2010 08:06:09 PM 623 Views
That was a long article. Rebekah - 19/11/2010 07:05:12 PM 543 Views

Yeah, I think English translations on average are better than those in smaller languages. Legolas - 19/11/2010 10:16:44 PM 641 Views
Wow Camilla - 20/11/2010 10:45:08 AM 684 Views

On balance, I'm glad I read the Steegmuller translation when I read the novel. Tom - 20/11/2010 05:14:42 PM 483 Views
Vas-tu faire s’enculée, Camille! Tom - 20/11/2010 05:26:08 PM 566 Views
If you don't mind a few grammatical corrections of your swearing... Legolas - 20/11/2010 05:42:57 PM 575 Views
It was a quick and dirty rendering Tom - 20/11/2010 05:53:13 PM 515 Views
Apparently so, with the use of "enculer" Larry - 20/11/2010 07:12:24 PM 531 Views
Actually, yes, it is The Temptation of St. Anthony Tom - 20/11/2010 08:43:08 PM 599 Views
And I didn't order from France. It's a US-based company that I bought it from. *NM* Tom - 20/11/2010 05:54:55 PM 221 Views

Yes, it did. Tom - 20/11/2010 08:45:13 PM 491 Views
I love Pleiade editions Camilla - 21/11/2010 12:14:14 AM 505 Views
How tall are they, out of curiosity? Tom - 21/11/2010 12:50:57 AM 649 Views
Not tall Camilla - 21/11/2010 09:59:55 AM 519 Views
I got my books today. Tom - 23/11/2010 05:38:20 AM 734 Views

Regardless, if Pleiade is the best France has to offer, their book industry is awful. Tom - 23/11/2010 07:17:13 PM 788 Views
Let me guess... Larry - 23/11/2010 07:46:41 PM 499 Views
No. I don't think he's been released in a Pleiade edition. Tom - 23/11/2010 07:49:05 PM 521 Views
Re: Oh Authorial intent. Gaps - 21/11/2010 02:07:27 AM 630 Views
Like hell it's about authorial intent. Tom - 21/11/2010 05:40:22 AM 566 Views
Re: I didn't even read it, I guessed based on the author's initials. Gaps - 21/11/2010 01:37:40 PM 752 Views
So I take it you missed the whole part about Nabokov's translation of Eugene Onegin. Tom - 21/11/2010 03:28:14 PM 507 Views
Re: Yes, I missed all of that. Such a conclusion clearly follows from my previous response. *NM* Gaps - 21/11/2010 03:57:16 PM 313 Views
Actually it does. Your responses are just cheap tricks, not discussions. *NM* Tom - 21/11/2010 04:44:21 PM 230 Views
Re: Cheap tricks? Gaps - 21/11/2010 10:45:39 PM 602 Views
Barnes' article has little to do with authorial intent Larry - 21/11/2010 11:37:25 PM 543 Views
Why didn't you translate je ne sais quoi? Tom - 21/11/2010 11:46:23 PM 596 Views
Because I didn't feel like it? Larry - 22/11/2010 01:14:31 AM 570 Views
Well, I think you started the snarky replies. Tom - 21/11/2010 11:42:33 PM 517 Views
I think it is more about the "authentic experience" than about intent. Camilla - 21/11/2010 10:01:57 AM 539 Views
