READING IN TRANSLATION
Wednesday, December 6, 4-5:30pm
Thompson Room / Barker Center / 12 Quincy Street
Join the Department of Comparative Literature for a late afternoon reading dedicated to the art of literary translation. To celebrate the inauguration of the Graduate Secondary Field in Translation Studies, students currently enrolled in Translation Studies 260, taught by Dr. Thomas Wisniewski, will read selections from their works-in-progress from a range of languages, including Japanese, Yiddish, Greek, German, and Spanish. A reception will follow the reading, open to all. This event is sponsored by the Elson Fund & Provostial Fund for the Arts & Humanities.
Founded as a graduate program in 1904 and joining with the undergraduate Literature Concentration in 2007, Harvard’s Department of Comparative Literature operates at the crossroads of multilingualism, literary study, and media history.
