In his essay "The American Universe" within his revised and newly published collection The Embattled Lyric, Nathaniel Tarn writes:
"Translation is i) a duty within the Republic of Letters; ii) a way of allowing various voices to speak; iii) a means of letting air into the beds of our own letters. Editorial activity is an extension of translation, not only from languages but from disciplines."
Words worthy of beatification; at least some passing time and its consideration.
