Ami csak a tiéd: D.A.C. special edition

This book is merely a personal narrative, and not a pretentious history or a philosophical dissertation. It is a record of several years of variegated vagabondizing, and its object is rather to help the resting reader while away an idle hour than afflict him with metaphysics, or goad him with science. Still, there is information in the volume; information concerning an interesting episode in the history of the Far West, about which no books have been written by persons who were on the ground in person, and saw the happenings of the time with their own eyes. I allude to the rise, growth and culmination of the silver-mining fever in Nevada -a curious episode, in some respects; the only one, of its peculiar kind, that has occurred in the land; and the only one, indeed, that is likely to occur in it.Yes, take it all around, there is quite a good deal of information in the book. I regret this very much; but really it could not be helped: information appears to stew out of me naturally, like the precious ottar of roses out of the otter. Sometimes it has seemed to me that I would give worlds if I could retain my facts; but it cannot be. The more I calk up the sources, and the tighter I get, the more I leak wisdom. Therefore, I can only claim indulgence at the hands of the reader, not justification. THE AUTHOR."My brother had just been appointed Secretary of Nevada Territory--?an office of such majesty that it concentrated in itself the duties and dignities of Treasurer, Comptroller, Secretary of State, and Acting Governor in the Governor's absence. A salary of eighteen hundred dollars a year and the title of "Mr. Secretary," gave to the great position an air of wild and imposing grandeur. I was young and ignorant, and I envied my brother. I coveted his distinction and his financial splendor, but particularly and especially the long, strange journey he was going to make, and the curious new world he was going to explore. He was going to travel! I never had been away from home, and that word "travel" had a seductive charm for me. Pretty soon he would be hundreds and hundreds of miles away on the great plains and deserts, and among the mountains of the Far West, and would see buffaloes and Indians, and prairie dogs, and antelopes, and have all kinds of adventures, and may be get hanged or scalped, and have ever such a fine time, and write home and tell us all about it, and be a hero. And he would see the gold mines and the silver mines, and maybe go about of an afternoon when his work was done, and pick up two or three pailfuls of shining slugs, and nuggets of gold and silver on the hillside. And by and by he would become very rich, and return home by sea, and be able to talk as calmly about San Francisco and the ocean, and "the isthmus" as if it was nothing of any consequence to have seen those marvels face to face. What I suffered in contemplating his happiness, pen cannot describe. And so, when he offered me, in cold blood, the sublime position of private secretary under him, it appeared to me that the heavens and the earth passed away, and the firmament was rolled together as a scroll! I had nothing more to desire. My contentment was complete.At the end of an hour or two I was ready for the journey. Not much packing up was necessary, because we were going in the overland stage from the Missouri frontier to Nevada, and passengers were only allowed a small quantity of baggage apiece. There was no Pacific railroad in those fine times of ten or twelve years ago--?not a single rail of it. I only proposed to stay in Nevada three months--?I had no thought of staying longer than that. I meant to see all I could that was new and strange, and then hurry home to business. I little thought that I would not see the end of that three-month pleasure excursion for six or seven uncommonly long years!

Vallomás csajozásról, rapháborúról, és magyar focivalóságról. "Curtis vagyok, az újpesti huligán, aki ?k?llel üti a n?ket, pénzért veszi a nézettséget és a hírnév reményében az utcagyerek stílust is hajlandó eldobni. Jól tudom, sokan ezt gondolják rólam, de azzal is tisztában vagyok, hogy a legt?bben csak irigyek a sikereimre, mások féltékenyek rám, mert a csajuk engem akar - vagy már le is csaptam a kezükr?l... Nekem viszont tiszta a lelkiismeretem, istenfél? ember vagyok, akit az imádott anyukája tart r?vid pórázon. Csak hát nincs k?nny? dolga velem: iskoláskoromban a rend?rségr?l szedtek ?ssze, mert egyedül szembe szálltam és téglákkal dobáltam meg egy busznyi kispesti drukkert; és azt is a családomnak k?sz?nhetem, hogy édesapám halála után a bátyám nyakon csípett, s elindította az újpesti focikarrierem. Jóllehet, engem maga alá temetett a mocskos magyar futballk?zeg és egy máig az NB I-ben edz?sk?d? szarházi megutáltatta velem a játékot, azt sem én, sem a Fradi-tábor nem felejti el soha, hogy egy "K?sz?n?m Istenem, hogy nem vagyok fradista" feliratú pólóban ünnepeltem a kecskeméti bajnoki címet az ?ll?i úti pályán. Labdarúgónak készültem, de rapperként ismert meg az ország és nem tagadom, minden pillanatát kiélvezem és kihasználom a zenélésnek: a klubtulajok komoly pénzt fizetnek, hogy náluk csináljak bulit, és míg a korombeli srácok prostikat vesznek, engem a csajok ráncigálnak az ágyba. De még mindig érnek meglepetések... T?led kérte már anyuka, hogy a szeme el?tt tedd magadévá a lányát? Vagy téged utaztatott már ki külf?ldre n? csak azért, hogy veled t?lts?n néhány éjszakát? Na, ugye! Curtis, az utca álma."

Tudomásom szerint csak a ?A walesi bárdok” angol fordítása létezik, ezt t?bben is lefordították. Célom a fordításokkal az, hogy az angol nyelvterületen él?k is élvezhessék Arany verseit és remélem a fordítások megfelelnek ennek az igénynek. A Zichy-rajzok hozzájárulhatnak a k?tetben megjelen? versek ?fogyaszthatóságához”. – Tomschey Ottó As far as I know only the translation of ?The Welsh bards” exists, this was made by several translators. My aim with these translation was to make ?consumable” the ballads of Arany for people living in the English-speaking world and I do hope that my work will meets therequirements. The Zichy-drawings may contribute to the ?consumability” of the poems of this volume. – Otto Tomschey
