Alexander Pushkin's biographer, Henri Troyat, wrote: 'Translation of Pushkin is treason'. But a number of people have tried, notably Vladimir Nabokov, who produced an unrhymed English version of the Russian writer's poetic novel.
Then, a few months ago, a new, privately printed translation appeared, written in the same iambic tetrameters as Pushkin's original and it was enthusiastically acclaimed by virtually all its reviewers.
It was by a retired diplomat, Sir Charles Johnston, and in this talk he discusses the difficulties of his task and the ways in which he tried to resolve them.
The illustrations from Pushkin's original are read by GEORGI VASSILT-CHIKOV

The Renaissance In Spain Twenty-seventh in a series of 28 programmes, devised and introduced by Basil Lam.
Sixteenth-century church music can far too easily be regarded as a succession of fine works by Flemish. Italian and English composers. Spain, whose distinctive Mozarabic chant is still sung In Toledo Cathedral, produced some of the greatest music of the period, notably by such acknowledged composers as Morales, Guerrero and Victoria.
