Translation of Shakespeare’s works is almost as old as Shakespeare himself; the first German adaptations date from the early 17th century.

Translation also served as a metaphor for physical transformation or transportation.

This Day in World History - On September 27, 1822, Jean François Champollion announced a long-awaited discovery: he could decipher the Rosetta Stone. The stone, a document written in 196 BCE during the reign of Ptolemy V, had been discovered in Rashid (Rosetta in French), Egypt in 1799 by French troops involved in a military campaign against the British. Deciphering hieroglyphics had frustrated scholars for centuries. Arab scholars, beginning in the ninth century, CE, made unsuccessful attempts, as did Europeans in the fifteenth.
I have been getting several comments sent to me in languages that I can't read. Unfortunately, in the past I had gotten some that looked like they were in Chinese and it turned out they had offensive (sexual) content throughout. Therefore, I do not approve comments that I cannot read.
If anyone can explain to me how I can post a translation, then I would be happy to do so. Until then, I'm playing it safe and rejecting comments that are in other languages. Sorry!
Blessings
