In Episode 29 of Translating the World with Rainer Schulte, our host virtually chatted with literary translator Peter Filkins in Vienna. In this conversation, the two discuss the importance of literary translation studies not only to the Arts and Humanities but to academic study in general. In addition, Filkins shared some insights on the value of translation workshops in helping students to engage more deeply with written texts and to understand the act of interpretation inherent in the practice of literary translation.
