New Dutch Writing Translating Workshop
Three literary translation workshops by leading translators from Dutch to English. Open to anyone with a sound knowledge of Dutch and native-speaker level English. Free to participate.
Due to the popularity of our previous series of translation workshops, New Dutch Writing is launching another three online translation workshops as part of its campaign to promote Dutch literature in translation in the UK and to nurture the next generation of translators. Each two hour workshop will be led by a leading translator from Dutch to English and will focus on a 1-2 page literary text or poem. Details of the workshops are:
- David Colmer children's literature workshop on Tuesday 18 October from 5-7pm (Dutch time) / 4-6pm (UK time)
- Hester Velmans fiction workshop on Tuesday 15 November from 5-7pm (Dutch time) / 4-6pm (UK time)
- Liz Waters non fiction workshop on Wednesday 14 December from 5-7pm (Dutch time) / 4-6pm (UK time)
The series of translation workshops is part of New Dutch Writing, a campaign funded and organised by the Dutch Foundation for Literature. For more information see https://www.newdutchwriting.co.uk
