Limited Capacity seats available

Translation is the main channel of intercultural dialogue between countries and nations. Often taken for granted, translation of literature is an activity that involves a number of players, from the writer and the original publisher, to literary agent, publisher of the translation, booksellers, reviewers and literary promoters. The panel discusses the challenges of taking literature across cultural and linguistic boundaries between cultures as diverse as Europe, the Arab World and India.
