Henryk Grossman project: assistance sought

Henryk Grossman was a major figure in the development of Marxist  
social and economic theory, and economic history during the 20th  
century. There has recently been a resurgence of interest in his  
contributions. But a large proportion of his work remains untranslated  
into English or is hard to find. It is time that his writings were  
brought together in an accessible form and that all his important work  
was made available in English.

A project is underway to publish selected works by Henryk Grossman in  
the Historical Materialism Book Series. Unfortunately we have no  
financial backing for this substantial undertaking. So we are seeking  
two kinds of assistance:
suggestions about how we might obtain funds, without danger to life  
and limb, would be very much appreciated. Are there any cultural  
institutions, university translation offices, government funded  
academic research programs or philanphropic institutions which we  
could tap into?
we are also looking for experienced translators who are prepared to  
donate their efforts to the project. The translations will be from  
German, French, Polish and Yiddish into English. The contribution of  
translations of short (a few hundred words) as well as longer texts  
would be appreciated.
If you can help, please get in touch.

In solidarity

Rick Kuhn
