As someone who struggled through senior seminar with a bad translation of Heidegger… yes it absolutely can do that. We had a throw down when our professor told us we didn’t read the chapter because our text said -the literal opposite- of what his did. Only a *good* translation increases access.

Would you have preferred a translation that made Heidegger's prose clearer and easier to understand?
