• William Hughes completes his Szymanowski
Friday, 11 January 2013 Leave a comment
It is almost five months since I last posted links to William Hughes’s invaluable English translations of Polish articles on Szymanowski (The Chronicles of Dr Hughes), the vast majority of them from 1937-38. Since then, he has posted 68 more, making a final total of over 130 translations. This has been a mammoth task, undertaken with love and care as well as from a burning desire to share these important documents with a wider audience. I hope that his efforts will one day be rewarded with a hard-copy publication, so if you appreciate his extraordinarily selfless achievement and agree with me about wanting to see this material in print, do let him know. He has redesigned his website so that is is easy to scroll through the summaries and click for the full articles. He’s also added images to many of the items.
It’s superfluous for me to itemise these documents as in my previous posts, so it gives me great pleasure to direct you straight to his own site: http://drwilliamhughes.blogspot.co.uk/. Bravo, William!
