Editing Translations in a Magazine: The Case of Verzia
What processes shape a literary translation into the final version published in a magazine? What decisions do editors have to make, and how are these influenced by access to the original text, knowledge of the source language, or information about the work?
Lucia Halová will introduce the editorial practices of the literary magazine Verzia, discuss the process of preparing translations for publication, and explore questions of collaboration between translators and editors. The workshop will include a practical exercise in which participants will work in groups to try their hand at editing a literary translation.
