Thank you to Helena Goscilo, Svitlana Kobets, and Mark Conliffe, who all
responded helpfully to my question about finding an English translation of
the 1835 Taras Bulba. Helena directed me to an old translation by Andrew
MacAndrew in the collection titled *The Diary of a Madman and Other Stories*
(Signet/New American Library 1960), Mark pointed me to this
http://www2.hn.psu.edu/faculty/jmanis/gogol/tarasbulba.pdf, and Svitlana
says she believes that there is a recent translation by Michael Naydan.
In answer to Nicole Svobodny's question about the difference between the
first version and other versions: basically, Gogol ramps up the Great
Russian nationalism in the later redaction.
Thanks again!
Anne
