From what I know there are only two translations into English that can be said to be "good", they are Manheim(though I've heard it can be a bit dry), and some other one which most people don't mention.

Well /lit/?

Also please don't advise Ford or Stalag.

No you aren't. You're going to keep reading European books in terrible Anglo translations that suck ass no matter how "accurate" they are so you can larp on 4chan as an epic nationalist despite living in the United States and eating shit food and drinking toxic water every single day

Did someone hurt you retard? I'm planning to learn German within the next year or two AFTER I'm done with the Greeks. Furthermore, I would not learn German to read Hitler, but Goethe and Kant.

Could you provide any comparison with the Manheim? Also how much do you know about the Murphy translation?

But thanks anyway.

>Manheim?
I haven't read every version. I've heard there's intentional mistranslation of some passages in Manheim's, but I haven't followed up on that.

>Murphy
Again, I recall problems with that one, but don't remember what they were. It may be that it's literally accurate, but contains poor prose, which can make a translation unreadable. Not sure what the issue is, though.

Reynal, as others have noted, then Manheim probably. You can also buy a Stackpole, if you find it. Content wise, it ought to be the same as the Reynal. Avoid the '38 Paternoster and similar ~280ish page versions, since they are abridged. Similar year Houghton Mifflin should be fine?

Isn't it crazy that you can't find a well curated list of the English translations?
