Book Launch & Panel Discussion

As “the person in between,” the translator often forges long-lasting, complicated, and wonderful relationships with her authors. There is a sense of accomplishment and challenge when she brings an author’s words into the correct light. These three German contemporary books have been translated into Marathi in continuous consultation with the author albeit using different translation methodologies: digital interaction a lectory platform, an interlinear translation and conventional one-to-one translation using Skopos theory. The translators will share their experiences at the launch:
