Event 170 Saturday 13 March 10.30amDeira International School, Room CThis
workshop is designed for those still at school or university who are
interested to know more about translation and who may already be
practising it as part of their studies and to offer people who are
interested in translation or who are thinking of becoming translators
an opportunity to see what it is like. The workshop will be practical
and interactive and will involve participants translating a number of
excerpts from Arabic literary texts into English. There will also be a
chance to look at some aspects of translation theory as well as
considering some of the broader issues around translation such as
publishing and the status of Arabic novels in translation.
Participants
in the workshop should have a high level of both languages and should
be able to read Arabic and write comfortably in English.
