This month our Translators' Stammtisch [German; a regular's table, usually in a pub] will be led by German translator Tanja Handels and hosted by Annie Rutherford.
In addition to chairing the usual workshopping of translations-in-progress, Tanja will talk through some of her own translation challenges and solutions, with particular focus on her translation of Toni Morrison.
The Stammtisch is free to attend and open to experienced and emerging literary translators of all language combinations. Translators are invited to bring along an excerpt from their current work (up to 1000 words of work in progress, prose or poetry, destined for publication or for pleasure) to share and discuss and benefit from the hive-mind of emerging and experienced literary translators.
Our translation workshop, organised each semester by the Goethe-Institut Glasgow, provides an opportunity to discuss the joys and challenges of (literary) translation with other translators.
