The task of the literary translator is commonly understood as comprising of two major elements. One is that of a translation proper - that is, a “conversion” of an original text into a new linguistic version, and the other being that of an agent or promoter who wants to attract attention of publishers, readers and critics. The question is whether the latter of the two remains justifiable in the changing book market. The article, based on a questionnaire conducted among a group of active translators, argues that the role of a translator as a promoter remains important only in very particular cases.

This paper provides a case study of the use of classical poetry in modern politics, through the close reading of Mao Zedong’s lyric song “Snow” (1936) and Liu Yazi’s matching poem (1945), and through the close examination of their contexts, including the political background, social circulation, media controversy, and cultural political implication. The diverging interpretations of Mao’s poem, expressed through dozens of matching poems, reveal the charm as well as the danger of using classical poetry, which relates the author’s persona to historical models and offers opportunities of prognostication for the future. It also shows the vitality of classical poetry in our modern era, in a way that cannot be replaced by vernacular literature.

The paper gives a concise account of Rorty’s conception of intellectuals and their role in society, politics and culture. This topic is an integral part of Rorty’s writings, in particular those on ethics and politics since the 1990s. The author describes his attitude towards Central-European intellectuals such as Patočka and Havel; his views on the contemporary leftist intellectuals in relation to the problem of the poor; his cultural typology of intellectuals as related to cultural politics; his concept of post-philosophical culture. In conclusion he depicts Rorty’s hope in future intellectual culture radically different from that of our days.
