Hello, The following event may be of interest to you: Translation and Reception: A Panel Discussion Thursday, April 19, 2018 This panel will be a conversation about translating and reading in translation. What are the kinds of technical problems that come up when approaching texts in translation? How can translators and readers move past these problems? What is the role of an editor in dealing with translation? The panel will use James Marcus’s recent review essay on the translations of Primo Levi as a starting point, in order to then engage more broadly with questions of translation. Bard’s Peter Filkins and Susan H. Gillespie will hold the discussion. Time: 5:00 pm – 6:30 pm EDT/GMT-4 Location: Olin Humanities, Room 203 Sponsor: Bard Translation and Translatability Initiative; Italian Studies Program; Literature Program; Sui Generis; Written Arts Program Contact: Karen Raizen.
