War & a Fur Piece


I look forward to another comment or two on my first post on Tolstoy’s War & Peace, and as mentioned another has been planned. But I also wanted to point out that Matthew Reed of a fur piece has written a very interesting post of his own (and has promised more) on the expression which Pevear & Volokhonsky have rendered ‘clerical persons’ in V. I, Part 1.xx. I urge all, especially those with a good knowledge of Russian, to read it and comment here.
