Will one of you Frenchie-Speaks help me with a question I’ve held for thirty years, namely- How is possible, as it is reputed, that Edgar Poe’s poems The Raven and The Bells, became even better poems through the translation into French? This, to me, is impossible, regardless of the ability and liberties taken by the translator.
Anyone read the French versions?
