“But Lord Brougham should not translate Greek orations, nor a maid-of-all-work attempt such a piece of delicate handling as to translate the Vita Nuova”

Emerson, Ralph Waldo, William Henry Channing, and James Freeman Clarke, eds. Memoirs of Margaret Fuller Ossoli. Boston: Phillips, Sampson and Company, 1852.

Inferred Fuller’s words — “But Lord Brougham should not translate Greek orations, nor a maid-of-all-work attempt such a piece of delicate handling as to translate the Vita Nuova” — point to translations of Greek orations, but she does not give the work’s full title or author here; the identification of the specific work is the editor’s.
