The University Professors has established itself as a national focal point for the study of literary translation, and every spring its Translation Seminar brings to campus many distinguished authors and translators for a weekly series of presentations. The seminar is open to registered students and the lectures are open to the public.
Registered students complete special projects and attend workshops.
This year's convener is Katherine O'Connor, Professor of Modern Foreign Languages and Literatures and Director of the Humanities Foundation at Boston University.
