I believe it was Nabokov who likened translation to bringing in the head of a text on a platter. I wish this was the exception, rather than the rule. I remember comparing Gadamer's Truth and Method with the original German in a seminar, and finding some truly staggering omissions.

De Beauvior is an important thinker and shaped my views when I read her as a young woman. I am free because I read the post-war french writers. I would want young women to have the same benefits I had.
