John Bertram Askew : ウィキペディア英語版 | John Bertram Askew John Bertram Askew (16 October 1869- 5 February 1929) was a British writer and translator, who translated some of the work of Karl Kautsky from German to English. ==Life== Askew was educated at Eton and Christchurch, Oxford. "It was difficult from his own vague allusions in latter years to imagine in what orgy of extravagance this mild, scholarly person might have dissipated his youthful fortunes and become estranged from his family."〔'Obituary: Mr. J. B. Askew', ''The Manchester Guardian'', 16 February 1929.〕 In 1896 he published ''Pros and Cons'', a compilation of views on both sides of topical political controversies, which went through several editions. Becoming a socialist, he went to live in Germany, where he knew Friedrich Engels. Trotsky's life of Lenin mentions him as a London associate.〔 Askew separated from his first wife, and in June 1911 a German court ruled that the marriage was dissolved. In 1912 he married his second wife, Anna Askew, from Berlin. Askew died in Moscow.〔 After his death the legitimacy of his second marriage was debated as a question of the conflict of laws in British courts.〔
