We came up with the idea out of the last <span class=\"caps\">ALTA<\/span> conference, and at the <span class=\"caps\">MLA<\/span> convention this past December, we talked with a number of translators about their work and various issues related to international literature. <\/p>\n<p>Well, at long last, we&#8217;re ready to release the first episode, featuring Lawrence Venuti, translator, theorist, and scholar. He talked with us about <em>Edward Hopper<\/em>, a collection of poems by Catalan author Ernest Farres that Venuti translated and that was published by Graywolf earlier this year. <\/p>\n<p>In contrast to some of the upcoming podcasts&#8212;which include conversations with Susan Harris, Esther Allen, Suzanne Jill Levine, and Bill Johnston&#8212;this one&#8217;s a bit on the long side, but well worth it. Venuti is fascinating to listen to, and the way he breaks down his translation&#8212;and Farres&#8217;s project as a whole&#8212;is spectacular.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, you can listen to the podcast via this post, or by downloading it through iTunes (assuming that iTunes will start working again&#8212;it was having &#8220;technical difficulties&#8221; yesterday). And stay tuned&#8212;we&#8217;ll release episode #2 at the beginning of March . . . <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recorded in Philadelphia at the recent Modern Language Association convention, Chad Post and Erica Mena meet Lawrence Venuti and discuss his translation of the Catalan poet Ernest Farres&#8217;s Edward Hopper: Poems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":46,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[67486],"tags":[17276,28396,17266,12966,10176,29836],"class_list":["post-276336","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-articles","tag-edward-hopper","tag-erica-mena","tag-ernest-farres","tag-graywolf-press","tag-lawrence-venuti","tag-reading-the-world-podcast"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/276336","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/46"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=276336"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/276336\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":349586,"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/276336\/revisions\/349586"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=276336"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=276336"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=276336"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
