Literary Translation for Poets [Andrea Lingenfelter]
All Levels | This one-day workshop introduces the process and ethics of literary translation, offering firsthand experience with multiple approaches to the translation of a poem. Students will go home with four new poems—two differing translations of a poem provided by the instructor, a personal response to that poem, and an experimental homophonic translation of another poem—plus new tools and insights into your own poetic practice. (Instructor will provide a short Chinese poem, with literal translation and transliterations.)
