For instance, there are numerous German translations already (<a href="http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alice_im_Wunderland" target="_blank">http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alice_im_Wunderland</a>), also at least two Dutch translations.<br>
<br>
</div>Yes, I am. Actually I am putting out a new edition of the
Zimmermann High German translation (which was written in Fraktur
orthography but authorized by Carroll). There are at least three Dutch
translations prior to 1900, the first of which is apparently an
abridgement. I've not seen any of those, though I found a reprint of
one of them today, (apparently in its original 1887 spelling, whether
facsimile or not I don't know).<br>
<br>
But yes, it would seem sensible to talk about new translations.<br>

<br>
</div>Anyone who DOES want to do a translation should get a corrected
file from me; that one has problems with punctuation, for instance.<br>
