Bunin and intelligentnost'

[Elena Gapova]

I am resending a message from Michele Rivkin-Fish (U of Kentucky), who is
not on the list:

Hi All,

I think the translation needs to include the sense of elitism in this
context, such as "educated elites" not required. Higher education in and of
itself isn't adequate, since she could've easily written those words.

However, in other contexts, I wouldn't necessarily translate
intelligentnost' in this way.

Michele
