(Pictures from hlo.hu)

László F. Földényi was author of the month for February at Hungarian Literature Online, and they have closed out the month with a bang. Today they provided one of Földényi’s essays, “Goya’s Dog,” at their site. The translation is by Ottilie Mulzet, the same translator for the collection of essays Dostoyevsky Reads Hegel in Siberia and Bursts into Tears, released last month by Yale University Press in The Margellos World Republic of Letters series. “Goya’s Dog” is a bonus essay, not included in the collection.

February posts at hlo.hu on Földényi:

• Their announcement of Földényi as author of the month, which includes some background on the author
• More on Dostoyevsky Reads Hegel in Siberia and Bursts into Tears
• An interview with Jozefina Komporaly, translator of The Glance of The Medusa, another collection of Földényi essays, released earlier this year by Seagull Books (I had linked to hlo.hu’s excerpt from the collection last fall)
• Interview: László F. Földényi: Being Streamlined Has Become a Universal Criterion
• Additional posts on Földényi at hlo.hu can be found here

I’ll see if I can post on these collections later this year, along with notes on Földényi’s earlier book Melancholy, once I get my books unpacked.
