I always thought leviathan = crocodile. Huge jaws, made money by eating up others?

Oh, that would make sense.

I also have the Lowe-Porter translation of Death in Venice. I didn't know that about it. Neither do I have the original German text to hand. I shall have to do some digging.

Someone here wrote that (about Lowe-Porter) on this thread but it was during the days which posts were lost. I can't remember who said it.
