The Classics and Mediterranean Studies Department is pleased to invite members of the community to a translation workshop with Dr. Patricia Barbeito (Dean, Liberal Arts, Rhode Island School of Design), an award-winning translator of contemporary Greek fiction and poetry. She will discuss the approach, methods, and principles she applies in her translations, and participants will have an opportunity to workshop their own work. While the focus will be on literary translation from Modern Greek to English, those with interests in other genres and media will benefit. The workshop is made possible in part through the generous support of the Consulate General of Greece in Chicago, and the UIC Institute of the Humanities.
