FRENCH 554 A: Translation: Practice, Identity, Power

Explores theories of translation practice, the articulation of identity in translation, and translation and its relation to fields of power. Each of these three areas is treated in a separate module, but the overlap between them animates discussions that present translation as a set of practices and heuristics that operates across disciplines. Conducted in English, but students work with the source languages of their research area. Recommended: advanced reading knowledge in a language other than English.
