Ben Belitt, a poet and scholar widely accolaimed for his translation of poetry from the Spanish of Alberti, Machado, Carcia Lorca, Borges and so forth has mapped out some of the terrain which divides and unifies the languages of the world and compels the translator's search for his function. This is a log-book, as well as a casebook on translation.
