Need citation for "Bronze Horseman" translation

[bmdamare at UMICH.EDU]

Jennifer,

The translation sounds like the poetic (not prose) translation done by 
D.M. Thomas.  Maybe someone else knows the specific printing.

Best,

> I'm trying to track down the bibliographical information for an 
> English translation of Pushkin's "The Bronze Horseman." I have a 
> photocopy of the poem, given to me by a colleague several semesters 
> ago. It's a solid prose translation and I'd like to include it in a 
> course reader for a fall class, but I don't know the translator, 
> publisher, year, etc. Here are the clues I can provide:
> 1. text begins on page 247 and ends on 257
> 2. On page 247 the text begins with "THE BRONZE HORSEMAN" in all 
> caps. Under that is written "A Tale of St Petersburg" (in italics) 
> and under that appears the word "Introduction," in a smaller font and 
> also in italics.
> 3. The first two lines of the translation read: "On a shore washed by 
> desolate waves, he stood. / Full of high thoughts, and gazed into the 
> distance."

> Thanks in advance, SEELANGers, for your collective wisdom.
