Il LEARNED WAN HOSP HEL Prof. Zordan, of the University of Padua, Is Enrolled at Belle- vue in a Most Lowly Ca pacity. REALLY AN INTERPRETER He Is Studying American Cus- toms for Use in a Forthooming Book, and His Enrolment as “Helper” Is a Matter of Form. Bellevue Hospital has the most inter- esting “helper’’ who has ever been en- Tolled on the hospital staff. The records show Bellevue are those of interpreter. The presence of an interpreter at the Institution has filled a long-felt Want, and Prof, Zordan has been busy talking in many languages ever since he has been In the hospital. When an excited Italian is brought Into a ward Prof. Zordan |s called on, When a gesticulating Frenchman or a Yiddisher is carried to the hospital Zor- dan fs again called into service. Why He Ie a ‘‘Itelper.” ‘The new interpreter is a slightly- built, intelligent-looking man, with re- markable scholarly attainments, His connection with Bellevue is unique, as he entered the hospital service for the sole purpose of learning the American language and American customs, Al- ready Bellevue's interpreter ls master of thirteen langdages and he knows Eiglish also, but it is his desire to @tudy the language here and to watch the American people in order to em- Dody his kmowledge in hia forthcoming book, “The Condition of European Lit- erature at the End of the Twentieth Century." While the Professor is interpreting for the benefit of the hospital he Is making mental observations and as his ‘atay in America {s to be of three years’ Yength, for which time he has been given a leave of absence from the uni- versity, intends to master the con- ditions in America thoroughly. “T came to Bellevue,” said Prof. Zor- dan, ‘because I wanted to be in con- tinual contact with people speaking the Engiieh language and | also knew that 1 could study American types here, The only trouble is that New York is com- posed of #0 many foreigners that you have to eliminate a great element of the people. I want to study the Ameri- an pure and simple. Haunted “T had been In New York fo and finally saw that I could make but amall headway—e stranger and alone, with no one to talk to—so I immediately thought of some plan by which I could be in a position where I could talk to I had «@ letter of introduction to Supt. Rickard and he offered me a place here.” As there is no provision made for an faterpreter at Bellevue, It was necessary fm order to admit Prof. Zordas, to enter him as “helper,” but the man who speaks almost every language that is printed does not mind that. ‘The languages of which Prof. Zordan fo master are French, German, Italian, and English, for although the Professor fs here for the express purpose of studying our language and the litera- of this country he is already a fine etudent of the English tongue. Born tn Italy, of a French father and Gernman mother, the Professor was prac. tially blessed at birth with the knowl. edge of three languages, and in the eompilation of his life work he soon acquired the knowledge of others. He is an extensive traveller and has visited nearly every corner of the globe. “Already I have written books,” he gaid, “for the study of literature is my supreme occupation. It ts necessary Defore writing on the literature of any nation to study ite customs and man- nere, I have been working on the Condition of European Literature’ for geven years and have completed the parts relating to Germany, France and Russia, America and England will ¢ol- tow." “Our Literature Trivial.” ‘The Professor expreass his opinion on ‘American jiterature of the present day as “trivial.” It has no special charac- ter, he says, Asked what name he thought stood out in American literature fhe at once sald Edgar Allen Poe. He admires Bret Harte and Mark Twain. Longfellow a @ poet he placed at the head. ‘The Professor has written many books whteh he has translated into several languages. Among them are “Pain ia Art’’ aod “Literature as Art.” He has fe: | realized. It stands the highest for tetaedire ck Secteur jor ina tt pearded foreign scholar is entire up in his study and Is getting ) every day for his life work, (a supplemented by numerong on other subjects.
