More quotes by Ventseslav Konstantinov
The translator constantly learns new things about himself.
Ventseslav Konstantinov
It is only logical for the translator to become a part of the world of the author.
Ventseslav Konstantinov
However, there is one great temptation and that is that you can forget that the aim of the writer was to reject all other worlds and to construct one of his own and that the aim of the translator is to re-embody himself into the world of the various writers.
