Browse Hierarchy SML6216: Translation Project

The Translation Project offers final-year students an opportunity to gain the very skills that form the backbone of the work of a translator. Students will produce the translation into English of a previously untranslated text from one of the languages studied within their degree. They will write an accompanying commentary, reflecting on their practice and addressing their overall approach and strategy for rendering into appropriate English a source originating from a different culture. A series of workshops will provide training in the relevant methodologies and theories, to enable students to implement meaningful translation choices.
