author: Mark Twain
title: The Awful German Language
summary: "An essay on the trials and trevails of learning."

Learning German is hard. Twain got that like no other. This essay, originally an appendix in _The Tramps Abroad_, details his trials and trevails of trying to master _deutsch_, and was a great solace to me while attempting to do the same.

author: Anton Chekhov
title: Easter Week
summary: "A new translation with accompanying wood engravings."

Two Chekhov stories--"The Student," and "On Easter Eve"--in new translation--courtesty of [Michael Henry Heim](http://www.humnet.ucla.edu/humnet/slavic/faculty/heim_m.html). These stories are two favorites of mine--and I even read [somewhere][1] that "The Student" was Chekhov's own favorite. It's a spectacular update on the standard [Constance Garnett](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constance_Garnett) translations. Handprinted on a Vandercook Universal I from mint Dante types. The paper was smuggled in from Germany.

### A specimen book

I published this small specimen book in two editions, German and English. Weiß designed a number of handsome typefaces that are still in use today. The Weiß Lapidar that appears on the title page below is especially handsome.

Hand-printed on a Korrex cylinder press on Zerkall papers.

I first stumbled on "Todesfuge" while working in Nicaragau--and before I could read German. It was shocking, brutal, powerful. I read it in English, then in Spanish translation--parsing through the German as best I could. I've since learned German and Celan's poems have only improved.
I first stumbled on "Todesfuge" while working in Nicaragau--and before I could read German. It was shocking, brutal, powerful. I read it in English, then in Spanish translation--parsing through the German as best I could. I've since learned German--or at least, learned German well enough to stumble through these.

_A Reading for Group 47_ reprints "Todesfuge", and three other poems in Celan's original German, facing [John Felstiner's](http://english.stanford.edu/bio.php?name_id=49) powerful English translations. A frontispiece by the California artist [Dirk Hagner](http://www.dirkhagner.com/) finishes the deal.

A small collection of difficult words culled from a variety of eccentric dictionaries. Includes useful gems like _totipalmate_, meaning, web-toed.

After filling a couple of legal pads with grammar notes, I composed and printed this compendium to tuck in my jacket pocket. It's rife with errors, but I've found it useful.

author: Rudolf Koch
title: Wallau Broadside
summary: "A type specimen printed from Klingspor originals."
date: 2012-08-18 16:25:31

This broadside was printed in Mainz, Germany, at the _Druckladen des Gutenberg Museums_. It's Rudolf Koch's Wallau, a _rundgotisch_ typeface, with elements of classic German blackletter and traditional roman capitals. Dan Reynolds has a whole lot more information [here](http://www.typeoff.de/2005/06/17/die-wallau-schriftprobe/).
