Excerpt from On Diseases of the Skin, Vol. 1: Including the Exanthemata
IN submitting to the Members of the New Sydenham Society a first volume of the translation of the important work of Professor Hebra on 'diseases of the Skin,' I think it necessary to add a few words to the preface written by the distinguished author.
There will always be a difference of opinion as to the best course to be adopted in translating from one language into another: whether the expressions used in the original should be transplanted, so to Speak, into the fresh soil, in the h0pe that they may still flourish, or whether the object should be to convey the Opinions of the author, in the words commonly employed by those who write in the language of the translation. It has been my aim to follow an intermediate course. But, although I believe my trans lation to be more literal than some which have been placed in the hands of the English Medical Public, I think, in looking over the pages which follow, that I am more likely to be blamed for depart ing from the exact mode of expression in the German text than for adhering to it too closely.
