    "title": "Italo Calvino’s Earliest Translations into English by Rome-Based African American Translator and Editor Ben Johnson",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "This “Notes from the Field” contribution draws on print cultural records to call attention to African American translator Ben Johnson’s early translations of Italo Calvino’s short stories, including his English-language debut, “Last Comes the Raven” in \nParis Review\n. Though information about Johnson’s career and time in Rome remains skeletal, these notes present readers with a working knowledge of his move to Rome following his wartime service in Italy, where he translated a great number of Italian modernist literary texts into English.",
