Course Information

Description

This course has several interrelated but distinct missions. First, we read selected major works from the history of attempts to theorize translation. Second, we read an array of contemporary examples of research on translation. Third, students have an option of drafting a research article or undertaking a major translation project. Graduate students from any discipline are welcome! Interested undergraduates need to have taken other prior coursework on translation, and should receive instructor approval to enroll. This seminar is the capstone requirement for the Graduate Secondary Field in Comparative Literature.
