The purpose of this proposal is to edit and translate into English a one-volume edition of the journals of Count Harry Kessler (1868-1937) from the years 1880 to 1918. These diaries are only now being published in Germany for the first time. They have never appeared in English. Besides translating them from German, I will also supply annotations and a brief introduction. The publisher Alfred A. Knopf has granted me an advance contract with a due date of September 1, 2008 for this project. |
