Summary
"This cahier, the first in a series, marks the opening of the Center for Writers & Translators at the Arts Arena of The American University of Paris. It also marks the completion by its author Richard Pevear of his translation (done in collaboration with Larissa Volokhonsky) of Tolstoy's War and Peace, which will be published later in 2007. Readers will learn here of the intuitions and convictions that have steered the course of one of the most famous translators of our day, as well as of the particular difficulties and rewards of translating Tolstoy's masterpiece. Also published here for the first time is Richard Pevear's translation of a long poem by Pushkin (with Russian text facing) as well as drawings by Pushkin himself."
