Discussion of David Kuebrich with Zhao Luorui. Zhao rejects the idea of a free translation in favor of being as faithful as possible to the original. Striving for a meticulous fidelity to both Walt Whitman's content and style, she revises repeatedly in search of a judicious blend of accuracy, fluency, and what she speaks of as 'idiomatic grasp'. Commenting on the relative difficulty of translating Whitman, Zhao says that Henry Wadsworth Longfellow was 'easy'. T.S. Eliot lent himself to a rather literal translation ; Henry James was 'very difficult', but Whitman is 'impossible'. |

Kenneth M. Price : Interview with Zhao Luorui. Zhao, Luorui : I think the Chinese people, even the government, always considered Walt Whitman a democrat and a very good friend of the common people. T.S. Eliot was easier to translate, he could be done literally, word by word. It was not extremely difficult to translate The waste land. And I did some of Henry James's novellas, and I found them more difficult than Eliot – the sentences are so involved. But I found Whitman the most difficult. I had to know the man before I could translate him I didn't need to know Eliot to translate his poetry. But I did need to know Whitman as man – his habits of thought, his background, his idiosyncracies even – in order to be able to translate him. |

Zhao, Luorui. Wo de du shu sheng ya. (Beijing : Beijing da xue chu ban she, 1996). [My life with books]. 我的读书生涯 Henry James lacks a strong and profound perception of politics and society, once concerned about this aspect, he showed his extremely conservative attitude, he even satirized and mocked the progressive democratic movements (The Bostonians, The princess Casamassima), ignoring the social origin of morality and social surroundings ; although he knows the upper class well, he knows little about the lower class, furthermore, he has a spiritual aristocrat's prejudice against people and matters. |
