Check out the readings by current comparative literature majors. Event is on Zoom.
The Lewis Center for the Arts’ Program in Creative Writing at Princeton University presents Reading in Translation: New Student Work on February 17 at 5:30 p.m. (EST) via Zoom. T

A series of “Translate Alongs” were held during the fall 2020 semester as a way to help student translators build community and get feedback on their works-in-progress. Each hour-long session allowed participants to join via Zoom, mute their mics, and translate “with” one another. Students who encountered challenges in their texts were invited to send a private chat to Kyzer so that they could work through knotty passages or head-scratching phrases together or, when necessary, step into a breakout room to discuss in more detail.

Junior Allie Mangel, a comparative literature major who will also read, “I loved taking Literary Translation with Larissa Kyzer this past fall! I learned so much about the nuances of language and how to bring out different tones and colors in translation. Class discussions were extremely rich, as my classmates spoke a variety of languages and provided diverse opinions and interpretations of one another’s texts. Her ‘Translate Alongs’ were especially helpful during this virtual semester! They provided a uniquely supportive online space in which to work individually and seek guidance alongside other students and even other professors.”

Other COM students reading include junior Meigan Clark and sophomore Luca Morante.

Students studying literary translation read from their recent work. Hosted by Larissa Kyzer, Lecturer in the Program in Creative Writing. FREE and open to public; via Zoom.

Where We Come from and Where We're Going
In this author chat, Ann Tashi Slater Princeton COM '84 talks with Amanda Dennis COM '03. Ann reads from her work and discusses her writing process, as well as explores her Tibetan American identity, dialogue across generations and borders, and how we relate to our cultures of origin as we figure out where we come from and where we're going. A Tokyo-based professor of American literature, Ann recently finished her first memoir; she contributes to The New Yorker, The Paris Review, The New York Times, Catapult, Guernica, the HuffPost, Tricycle, and others. She speaks and teaches workshops at Princeton, Columbia, Oxford, and The American University of Paris, as well as the Asia Society and The Rubin Museum of Art. This event was jointly hosted by Princeton Club of Japan (PCJ), Princeton Alumni Association of France (PAAF), Asian American Alumni Association of Princeton (A4P), Princeton Women's Network of NYC (PWN NYC) and Princeton Women's Network of Greater Princeton Area.
