About the event
Join Susan Bernofsky,translator and Chair of the PEN Translation Committee, for this seminar which will examine the "Fragments and Gestures between Languages in Translation." Translation is a vital engine for public engagement with the humanities across NYC. The Translation Seminar Series features guest speakers who work with translation in scholarly, pedagogical, and creative contexts at CUNY and across the City. Meetings feature facilitated discussions, often springing from short shared readings, about the complexities of translating and reading works in translation.
This event is presented as part of Translation, an interdisciplinary research group that investigates how translation might be understood as a process of transformation that deepens engagement with places, people, cultures, and languages. The group is supported by the Mellon Seminar on Public Engagement and Collaborative Research. For more information or to join, email[email protected].
Cosponsored by the Translation Mellon Seminar for Public Engagement and Collaborative Research.
