MA Literary Translation

Opis i cele kształcenia

You translate prose into English and write the note that explains the choices. Source languages are the ones you already read. The course does not teach a language from zero. Rights and the translator's contract sit beside the workshop. The project is 4,000 words plus the note. MA Literary Translation is taught as one award, not a list of unrelated modules. The published length is 18 months, and the credit total is 36. Students move from Close reading through Close reading; Prose workshop; Poetry and drama; Contracts and copyright; Editing the translation; Translation and note, and finish on Translation and note. Each course has a question, a method, and a submission. In this field, students apply the method of the subject to a defined problem and defend the result. Reading is a core text, a case or dataset, and a critique. The artefact a marker expects is a submission that shows the method, the evidence, and the limit of the claim. The award is built so that a graduate can do the following in practice: Translate a 600-word passage Annotate five decisions Mark a rights position Teaching assumes the student can read a source, attempt a problem before the seminar, and revise after feedback. Attendance at live seminars is part of the design. The capstone or final course must use the methods of the earlier courses; a project that ignores them does not pass. The pages for each course name the topics that are examined. Those topics are the syllabus. A brochure line is not a substitute for them.
