From the text
“It was the desire of both of us that these details of my life should be accessible to our family and to our sincere and trusted friends; and we decided therefore, in order to provide against a possible destruction of the one manuscript, to have a small number of copies printed at our own expense.”

I was born at Leipzig on the 22nd of May 1813, in a room on the second floor of the ‘Red and White Lion,’ and two days later was baptized at St. Thomas’s Church, and christened Wilhelm Richard.
나는 1813년 5월 22일 라이프치히의 ‘적백사자’ 2층 방에서 태어났고, 이틀 후 성 토마스 교회에서 세례를 받아 빌헬름 리하르트라는 이름을 받았습니다.
My father, Friedrich Wagner, was at the time of my birth a clerk in the police service at Leipzig, and hoped to get the post of Chief Constable in that town, but he died in the October of that same year.
나의 아버지 프리드리히 바그너는 내가 태어날 당시 라이프치히 경찰서의 서기였으며 그 도시의 경찰서장 자리를 얻기를 희망했으나 같은 해 10월에 사망했습니다.
His death was partly due to the great exertions imposed upon him by the stress of police work during the war troubles and the battle of Leipzig, and partly to the fact that he fell a victim to the nervous fever which was raging at that time.
그의 죽음은 부분적으로는 전쟁 중 소요와 라이프치히 전투 중 경찰 업무의 스트레스로 인해 그에게 가해진 과도한 노력 때문이었고, 부분적으로는 그 당시 유행하던 신경열병에 걸렸기 때문이었습니다.
As regards his father’s position in life, I learnt later that he had held a small civil appointment as toll collector at the Ranstädt Gate, but had distinguished himself from those in the same station by giving his two sons a superior education, my father, Friedrich, studying law, and the younger son, Adolph, theology.
아버지의 사회적 지위에 관하여는 나중에 알게 된 사실이지만, 그는 란슈타트 문에서 통행료 징수원으로 작은 공직을 맡았으나, 같은 지위에 있는 다른 사람들과는 달리 두 아들에게 훌륭한 교육을 시켰는데, 나의 아버지 프리드리히는 법학을, 둘째 아들 아돌프는 신학을 공부하게 하였습니다.
My uncle subsequently exercised no small influence on my development; we shall meet him again at a critical turning-point in the story of my youth.
이후 삼촌은 나의 성장에 적지 않은 영향을 미쳤으며, 우리는 내 젊은 시절 이야기의 중요한 전환점에서 그를 다시 만나게 될 것이다.
My father, whom I had lost so early, was, as I discovered afterwards, a great lover of poetry and literature in general, and possessed in particular an almost passionate affection for the drama, which was at that time much in vogue among the educated classes.
내가 일찍 여읜 나의 아버지는 나중에 알게 된 바와 같이 시와 문학 전반을 매우 사랑하셨고, 특히 당시 교육받은 계층 사이에서 유행하던 연극에 대해 거의 열정적인 애정을 갖고 계셨습니다.
My mother told me, among other things, that he took her to Lauchstadt for the first performance of the Braut von Messina, and that on the promenade he pointed out Schiller and Goethe to her, and reproved her warmly for never having heard of these great men.
어머니는 내게 여러 가지 이야기를 하셨는데, 그중 하나는 그가 어머니를 라우흐슈타트로 데려가 《메시나의 신부》 초연을 보게 했고, 산책로에서 어머니에게 쉴러와 괴테를 가리키며 이 위대한 인물들에 대해 들어본 적이 없다고 열렬히 꾸짖었다는 것입니다.
He is said to have been not altogether free from a gallant interest in actresses.
그는 여배우들에 대한 호감 어린 관심에서 완전히 자유롭지는 않았다고 전해진다.
