Cover of “Je-li toto človek”, Sefer, 1995
Only two of Primo Levi’s works were translated in Czechoslovakia before the country was divided in two in1993. The Periodic Table was translated by Hana Benesovà as Prvky života, literally "Elements of life" and published by Odeon in 1981. In 1989 The Drowned and the Saved with a preface by Cynthia Ozick was published in Czech by Index, an exile publisher in Cologne.
In 1993 a new translation of The Drowned and the Saved was published by Mladà Fronta (Prague) with the same title, Potopení a zachránění. This was followed by If This is a Man / Je-li toto človek, (Prague: Sefer,1995) and At an Uncertain Hour (Collected Poems) / V nejisté hodině (Prague: Triàda, 1997). The Truce, Conversations and Interviews and If Not Now, When? were published 2000-06.
Levi’s works do not have a single publisher nor translator. There are 5 publishers and 3 translators.
