I know absolutely nothing of the art and science of translation. Unfortunately I'm still monolingual at this point in my life, and I'm not sure if that will ever change. However, I think that in English both of you're translations work to convey the same meaning while invoking a different sort of aesthetic experience. I'm really enjoying this series, and if you ever decide too publish a hard copy of your translation of Liturgy of The Season I would pick up a copy no doubt. Does it start again each year from a particular spot? Where does this system place the new year?
Again, thank you for the kind words. The Seelenkalendar starts the New Year at some time around the Vernal Equinox, like many traditional calendars. Specifically, Easter Sunday marks the beginning of the count. That is quite a stunning verse.
Beautiful!
thank you for the kind words. if you would be obliged, i updated the post with another, somewhat freer translation, and i wonder what you think of it.
