Translations of Dialogues with the Angel in 21 languages
First French translation
Gitta arrived in France in 1960 with the precious notebooks containing all the interviews. One question occupied her thoughts night and day: could and should this burning intimate yet universal experience be broadcast? To find out more, she lent the manuscript of the Her testimony in Hungarian to Marguerite Kardos by making her believe that it is an experience lived by someone else (taking care to substitute her initials to make the manuscript anonymous).
Marguerite Kardos finds herself upset: day and night she chants aloud these luminous verses, interspersed with long meditations, so that each of her cells is impregnated with them. One night, in a dream, it is revealed to him that Gitta has fully participated in this spiritual adventure. She then rushes home to express all her gratitude and her ardent desire to participate in spreading the word of the angel. She will be integrated into the small group of translators that Gitta will then put in place. This is how the first French edition was born at Christmas, in 1976, published by Aubier.
Another edition, known as the "Complete Edition", was published in 1990. Since her French was not very good, Gitta enlisted the help of many people for these translations: the Franciscan father Henri Ormaechea, her husband Lacy Walder, who also spoke Hungarian, and Dominique Raoul-Duval. Demanding, she would not give up until she felt the translation was right.
International translations
Since the Her testimony have been translated into more than twenty languages and have traveled the world.
The German and English versions were translated in close collaboration with Gitta by Robert and Elena Hinshaw of Daimon Verlag. Robert Hinshaw will write, in the afterword of the French edition, the portrait of this extraordinary woman. Gitta has entrusted the publishing rights for all versions except the French to Editions Daimon Verlag, which is responsible for over 100 authors and their rights: https://www.daimon.ch/Talking-with-Angels
Breath-Light (Bang Hai Ja)
Painting the Light (Bang Hai Ja)
The latest Korean translation of the book is from June 2018 in the 'Soul Library' collection of a major Korean publishing house. This is the 21st language into which the book has been translated since its first publication in 1976, in French.
The translation is the work of Bang Hai Ja, a well-known Korean painter who lives in France, and her husband Alexandre Guillemoz. Together, they had already published in 2014 a Korean translation of Morgen – Dawn, messages from the angel Morgen transmitted by Hanna Dallos in German from December 1943 to February 1944.
We hope that many other versions will soon see the light of day, notably in Chinese, Arabic and Hebrew.
