    A search ofnypl.org turns up dozens of records in which Edith Grossman is identified up front and boldly as translator. The exacting rules for cataloging translations identify them as new works and mandate that the translator be explicitly named in the library record. "I started translating partly as a discipline, hoping that the process might help me to learn to learn to write"
