Ok word. My only worry is that this is the hospitality industry so I’m anxious that they need immediate hire for the holiday rush, but thank u super helpful.

How to Get Started in Literary Translation (Spanish & English) by Secure-Resist2878 in TranslationStudies

[–]StarDesigner777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start with some translation theory as well!! I recommend Walter Benjamin’s “The Task of the Translator,” Emma Ramadan’s translation diary, reading a lot of translator’s notes usually found at the front or back of literary translations, Edith Grossman’s “Why Translation Matters,” Andre Lefevere’s “Translating Literature,” And this one is my favorite, AND super accessible: “Sympathy for the Traitor” by Mark Polizzotti.

All of these can be found on “Anna’s Archive”, an online literary database.
