Objet : [SEELANGS] Pride and Prejudice opening sentence in Russian



Dear Colleagues,

An English professor from a neighboring college is going to Russia to give some lectures and would like the Russian translation of the first sentence of Pride and Prejudice :  “It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in need of a wife.” I am hoping that one of you might already have this in a translation of the book. If so, I would greatly appreciate it if you could send it to me at: kthresher at randolphcollege.edu<mailto:kthresher at randolphcollege.edu>.

Thank you very much in advance,
Klawa Thresher
