FOUR LITERARY TRANSLATORS

The unfamiliar theme of Four Literary Translators is that major modernist writers a century ago produced from major texts versions that are scarcely known Kenneth Burke of Thomas Mann’s Death in Venice , Ezra Pound of Remy de Gourmont’s The Natural Philosophy of Love , James Gibbons Huneker’s Charles Baudelaire, and Virginia Woolf’s Dostoevsky. Aside from the quality of the individual texts, consider this book to epitomize imaginative literary publishing in bringing together within a single set of covers certain texts not otherwise connected to one another.
