Salzburg session 461

Salzburg Global Seminar

In February 2009, the Salzburg Global Seminar convened a conference entitled:
“Traduttore Traditore? Recognizing and Promoting the Critical Role of Translation in a Global Culture.”
As an organization committed to seeking solutions to issues of global concern and to promoting dialogue among cultures for more than sixty years, we felt this was an issue particularly deserving of greater focus and attention.

To this end, and with the generous support of The Edward T. Cone Foundation, the Seminar brought together more than seventy literary translators and writers, agents, publishers, critics, scholars, cultural authorities, and translation advocates from around the world to shed new light on the unsung art of literary translation and on the vital role translators play in making literature accessible to international audiences.

Full session report, located at www.salzburgglobal.org/go/461wrapup, along with interviews with session participants, media coverage of the event, and the complete set of working group recommendations.
FIT President Marion Boers and Vice President Miriam Lee attended. Susanna Seidl-Fox is Director.
