As there are a number of translators on this list, and a
whole lot of writers who are translated, I hope it will not
be considered OT to post this notice. The Banff program is
open to translators from Mexico, the U.S. or Canada who are
translating authors from any country; also translators from
anywhere translating authors from those three countries,
which sponsor the BILTC. It's a great opportunity to spend
time in a stunning setting far from everyday concerns, to
concentrate on a literary translation project.
The Banff International Literary Translation Centre is a
three-week residency program offering literary translators an
opportunity to focus on a current project, consult with
experienced translators, network with colleagues in an
international literary forum and, in some cases, spend time
with the writer whose work they are translating.
Financial assistance is available. The 2008 application
deadline in January 11.
