Chinese-English Literary Translation course, September 2014

Please note that we have extended the deadline for applications for the
next Chinese-English literary translation course to Monday 18th August

The Chinese English Literary Translation course will run from 22nd to 27th
September 2014 in the Yellow Mountains. The course will offer a mix of
literary translation and creative writing workshops, with guest speakers.

We will be running six workshops, three from English into Chinese, and
three from Chinese into English. Each group will translate a short text by
their writer in residence, led by their workshop leader, an experienced
literary translator. The groups are as follows:

 
·      Michael Mohammed Ahmad, led by Wang Weidong
·      Suzanne Joinson, led by Wu Qing
·      Nam Le, led by Hu Zongfeng
·      Ah Yi, led by Eric Abrahamsen

·      Li Pingyi, led by Bonnie McDougall

  
There will also be creative writing workshops, led by the writers in
residence. The organisers are Foreign Languages Teaching and Research
Press and the British Centre for Literary Translation. The new deadline
for applications is Monday 18th August 2014.
