There is one solution however: comments, comments, and comments. In one of the best translations of the ancient Greek tragedies that I have ever encountered (sadly, both the author and title are now lost to me), the author commented heavily on nearly every line of the translation. This was done in the book using facing pages, i.e. the left page contained the original Greek and the English translation while the right page contained the extensive line-by-line commentary. One could easily glance back and forth between the facing pages to develop an insight into the original. This kind of a set-up is much better than the often used footnotes. However, much meaning and nuances are probably still destined to be lost. -- Systemd: solving all the problems that you never knew you had.
