Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
I have continued with my study of translation and minority languages. There are no firm results as yet. I am currently working on three academic papers. One is on the translation of poetry where the poetry is known to readers. The second is an analysis of a survey on reading of translated novels. The third is a review paper overlooking developments in translation for minority communities over approximately the past ten years. I am also writing three chapters for academic books. For one book the concept is translating between languages which use different scripts for writing. For a second book there are two chapters. One is on re-translation. The other is on interactions between visual elements such as illustration, and verbal text.
