A scholarship took him to Oxford, and a teaching job to Switzerland, where he married and lived until his death in 1997. He worked for many years as a technical translator, then on the editorial staff of an art and design magazine. He has translated numerous books, from steam boiler manuals and glaciological yearbooks to works on Picasso, Constructivism and Yoga. Among others, he published a four-volume course on modern English structures and three books of poetry. The publications by Salzburg University include "A German Treasury", German poetry from 1100 to Rilke with English translations in four volumes, as well a his own collected poems.
