Literary Translation

This website is produced by the British Council Literature Department and the British Centre for Literary Translation.

Its aim is to celebrate the art of translation and bring to a new audience an appreciation of the complexities and richness of this art form, it said.

A resources section of the website provides a comprehensive resource for all aspects of literary translation, both in the UK and overseas.

Online biographies are provided of contributors to the site.

A discussion and opportunity-alert forum is open to everybody with an interest in translation and is designed to facilitate the exchange of views and information on all aspects of literary translation.

The discussion board is intended to act as a point of contact for translators from around the world and give an opportunity for pooling expertise and circulating details of resources and good practice, said the website.
