Description

An advanced translation course combining reflection on the translation process with regular exercises in translating from Dutch into English covering a variety of text types. All students learn to develop a translation strategy, analyse texts for translation and also published translations of literary texts. An important aim of the course is to encourage and assist students to develop their own approach to translation. Time is also devoted to improving practical skills such as revising and proofreading translations, and accessing a range of printed and online lexicographical and bibliographical resources.Ìý

Please note that MA students attend classes together with final-year BA students.Ìý
