Bespridannitsa

[Karen Vickery]

Hello David,  I am studying Ostrovsky as a theatrical reformer for my
MA/PhD at UNSW in Sydney.  I know the Henley and find it good with some
useful notes.  When you receive it you'll find a useful list at the back
of the book with Ostrovsky's Plays in English trans. listed.  This list
includes a reference to "Larissa" translated by Michael Green and Jerome
Katsell in The Unknown Russian Theater, Ardis, Ann Arbor, 1991.  I have
not read this version.   Hope that helps.  If you come across any
material pertaining to Ostrovsky's work with actors and the Artistic
Circle, I'd be very grateful.  Sincerely, Karen Vickery

Dear SEELANGERs,

I'm look for an English translation of Ostrovskii's Bespridannitsa. I am
aware of one,  in Without a dowry & other plays ; translated & edited by
Norman Henley.
Does anyone know of any others that I might compare? Opinions of the
relative virtues of any given translations would also be most welcome.
(I've ordered, but not yet seen Henley's.)

Many thanks,
David
