From 11 – 14 September 2018 the European School of Literary Translation will organise its second Summer school (http://www NULL.eslt NULL.eu/). The Summer school, which will take place at Link Campus University (http://linkinternational NULL.eu/), will bring together 20 translators and educators from across Europe  and is aimed at literary translators (at any stage of their career) who are keen to develop their teaching skills and find out about innovations in the field.

The three-day programme will include keynote lectures, panel discussions, seminars and workshops. Topics include ‘Didactics of Literary Translation’ and ‘Literary Translation and the Digital’.

The registration fee of €350 (incl. VAT) will cover all tuition. Participants are expected to cover their own travel, accommodation and subsistence costs.

Applications can be submitted by e-mail by 1 May 2018 to eslt@fusp.it (eslt null@null fusp NULL.it).

Candidates (from Europe or outside of Europe) are requested to send in (in English):

  • A letter of motivation, including an indication of the role and strategic impact of participation in the ESLT Summer School in your career path;
  • A full CV, including contact details and a record of translation practice.

Successful participants will be notified by 1 June 2018.

Founded in 2017, the European School of Literary Translation is organised by four partners: British Centre for Literary Translation, Centre of Expertise for Literary Translation (Flanders / Netherlands), University of Rome Link Campus and Fondazione San Pellegrino, Italy. ESLT implements the PETRA-E Framework for the Education and Training of Literary Translators.
