Subject: [SEELANGS] Khlebnikov's Prologue

Dear SEELANGers,

As an unexpected and pleasant distraction from deciphering surimono I found
myself translating Khlebnikov's Prologue to The Victory over the Sun.
Curious to hear about the validity of the principles of this translation and
interested to gather opinions about my particular coinage, I'll be happy to
offer it to the judgement of all hominibus bonae voluntatis. I do not mind
to post it on the list, but since at least a half of the 2 pp. space is
occupied by footnotes (not properly convertible), it has to be sent as an
attachment to individual e-mail addresses.

Bud' slukhom (ushast) sozertsal'! I smotryaka.

Thank you,

Evgeny Steiner
