@bobble It's a somewhat funny tag to have but it seems to fit the question, whereas authorial-intent doesntt.

@Randal'Thor no points for guessing whose Unanswereds I was going through this morning :)

mm, here's something else literature.stackexchange.com/q/11306/11259 - is this even on-topic? Does a self-help book count as Literature? In any case, spanish-literature shouldn't apply; the book was originally written in English

that's it for going through some translation questions for now, toodles!
