Je remets ces deux mots à M. le Procureur du Roi en l'engageant s'il n'y voit aucun obstacle à les faire mettre à la poste. Je m'occupe toujours dans ma prison de mes traductions russe et allemande, mais cela m'ennuie un peu. C'est toujours perdrix. Je vous engage à me remettre au plutôt une vingtaine de pages des pièces grecques que vos traductions notées les accompagnent et nous verrons le parti à tirer. J'aimerais bien à avoir les Chœurs de Manzoni, aussi avec une traduction et j'en ferai un article pour un de nos journaux. Saluez mes amis. Vous pouvez adresser les fragmens grecs au Vice-Consul anglais, M. Hamilton, pour moiou peut-être à la maison d'arrêt même avec ordre d'être examiné par M. le Procureur du Roi. Les articles sur l'Histoire de l'Angleterre sont faits et j'espère que vous serez content de ce que j'y ai ajouté. Je rêve à une Tragédie historique sur ce sujet. Dieu sait si l'embryon naîtra jamais. Je voudrais bien avoir les cahiers qui ont paru de votre Société Asiatique. - Vale et me ama. Tout à vous J. BOWRING Maison d'Arrêt A Monsieur Rue des Vieilles Thuilleries, No. 22 Paris. III. Londres 11 Avril 1823 Carissimo, Je vous donne deux mots de réponse à votre aimable. Pour les Chansons grecs* j'ai une maison qui se chargera de la traduction anglaise, en payant tous les frais. S'il y a du profit, et j'en suis assuré, je voulais le donner au Comité Grec. Une traduction française ne se vendrait pas ici. Je doute même si nous pourrions trouver un libraire qui se chargerait de la publication. Moi, peut-être, parmi mes amis, je pourrais trouver une quarantaine de personnes qui les prendraient, mais l'on n'aime pas-on ne veut pas de traduction en prose-(les vôtres ne seront pas prosaïques quoiqu'en prose). En vers ces pièces auraient un charme singulier. Ce qu'il y aura de plus difficile à arranger ce sera de vous rémunérer-Vous devez me parler franchement sur ce point. Je ferai ce que je peux. Pour la publication des chansons-pour la traduction en vers anglais, je vous réponds. Notre Revue à ce que j'espère ira bien.tLe 1er No. ne paraîtra qu'au 1er Déc. Je voudrais * Fauriel published in 1824 and 1825 with great success the 'Chants populaires de la Grèce.' + The Westminster Review, established in 1823, with Bowring as first editor, and with funds contributed by Jeremy Bentham. |
