Lavender: And Other Verse (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Lavender: And Other Verse
The translations in this volume are reproductions of the originals; that is, they strictly follow the originals in matter of form including the rhyme arrangement. In the View of the writer no verse translation can properly be deemed such unless it accomplish this. No literary work is perhaps so technically difficult as the turning of the poetry of one language into poetry of the language of another; for not only must the form be maintained, but the very essence of the poetry embodied in that form, together with the thought in all its nicety and strength. The difficulties hence are enormous, and perfect suc cess well nigh impossible.
