ALTA38: The Perils of Punctuation, 10/30/2015
Channel: Literary Translation
Date: 2015-11-22

Punctuation may seem a humble topic in the house of literature, but it can be as individual to each author as any other stylistic element. What is more, before the translation process reaches a full stop, punctuation must be rendered in the new language along with all the words. In this session, five experienced and distinguished translators will address punctuation in German, Hebrew, Russian, Spanish and Turkish.
