Dear all,
I am resending this, since we are nearing a deadline. Registration closes on April 17, except for those languages that are still under-subscribed.
I have always enjoyed teaching on this course myself, and I have yet to hear of a student who has not enjoyed it.
Please do forward this to colleagues who teach other relevant languages!
Yours, Robert Chandler

"Warwick Translates Summer School" offers the opportunity to translate texts across the literary genres into English, working with leading professional translators. Groups will be limited to a maximum of 20 students to allow for individual attention. Places will be allocated on a strictly ‘first-come-first-served’ basis.
The course will be taught in an all-day workshop environment using a variety of texts including non-fiction (essays, journalism, academic) and fiction (poetry, fantasy, children's literature, crime writing). Lunch time events will include discussion panels with publishers and editors. Evening events will include a Translation Slam and a keynote Lecture by Preti Taneja: ‘Translating Shakespeare in conflict and post-conflict zones: the challenge to “universal” human rights’.
