Jeremy's journal

The alternatives are not placid servitude on the one hand and revolt against servitude on the other. There is a third way, chosen by thousands and millions of people every day. It is the way of quietism, of willed obscurity, of inner emigration.

J.M. Coetzee

Intriguing... I had a few questions about the translations in "La Vita Nuova", so I ordered a copy of the original to do comparisons. And while searching around abebooks, happened on a copy of "Una Paragrafo Inedito della Vita Nuova, trovato fra carte del sec. XIII" (An unpublished paragraph from La Vita Nuova, found among papers from the 13th C.) by Giovanni Federzoni. Wild! It seems to be untranslated, and I'm finding precious little information about it online. Federzoni does not even have an entry in Italian Wikipedia, though his son Luigi has. The Treccani Dizionario Biografico confirms my hunch that the "unpublished paragraph" is an invention of Federzoni's. How Borgesian!
