This course is a hands-on introduction to German-English translation. Specific grammatical, structural and lexical problem areas will be dealt with in connection with the texts, on a contrastive basis where appropriate. Emphasis is put on the effective use of English shadow texts and monolingual dictionaries supported by bilingual ones, rather than the other way around. Apart from translating shorter texts in class, you will be expected to prepare a translation task at home each week. The texts for translation are about literature and language (e.g. biographical sketches of authors, book announcements, reviews, articles from periodicals).
Please use the registration form to register for the course by 12 March. |
