Carl Eduard Malm (Karl Eduard Malm; 22\/10 February 1837 \u2013 14\/1 January 1901) was a clergyman, translator of poetry and writer of schoolbooks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Malm was born and attended school in Tallinn. He studied at the Faculty of Theology at the University of Tartu, obtaining a Candidate of Theology degree and the qualifications of a senior teacher of religious instruction, Greek and Hebrew. He worked as a home tutor and pastor, dean of L\u00e4\u00e4ne-Harju County and assessor of the Consistory of Estonia. Malm was a member of the Learned Estonian Society, later its honorary member. He participated in the activities of the Estonian Literary Association, in the books of which he was one of the first promoters of the new spelling system developed by Eduard Ahrens<\/a>. Malm died in Rapla and is buried in Rapla cemetery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Malm\u2019s translations marked a qualitative leap in the translation of poetry into Estonian. His translations of the classics of world literature, such as the ballads of J. W. Goethe, F. Schiller and H. Heine as well as the fables of I. Krylov, are true to the originals, with good verse technique and a rich vocabulary. Malm handled the texts by lesser-known authors more freely, making more adaptions to them. The song Kask<\/em> (\u2018Birch\u2019), also known under the title \u00dcks kask meil kasvas \u00f5ues<\/em> (\u2018There Was a Birch Growing in Our Yard\u2019), which has been adapted from the text of W. M\u00fcller and performed to the tune of F. Schubert, gained general popularity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In Malm\u2019s original poems, an important role belongs to meditation with an elegiac tone growing out of nature imagery. He has also written well-rhythmized songs for children. Malm\u2019s originals and translations appeared in the collection of songs and stories Vana ja Uut, Eestirahva ajaviiteks<\/em> (\u2018Old and New, for the Pastime of the Estonian People\u2019, 1870, prose pieces by O. W. Masing<\/a> and Fr. R. Faehlmann<\/a>) and in the very popular and one of the best school textbooks at the time, Laulud ja Loud <\/em>(\u2018Songs and Stories\u2019, 1874), which was issued repeatedly and was in use until the beginning of the 20th century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A.
