Portsmouth Translation Conference "The changing face of translation"

Dear all,
This is just a quick reminder that the eighth Portsmouth Translation Conference will take place on 8 November. This year's theme is 'The changing face of translation' and we have a number of eminent guest speakers including Ewa Rossing from the Directorate General for Translation of the European Commission; the drama translator Helen Rappaport; the opera surtitler Jonathan Burton; the translator and former education officer of the ITI Emma Wagner and Svenja Wurm, who will be speaking on sign language translation.
This year's conference is an activity of the National Network for Translation, a Routes into Languages initiative, and attendance is subsidised for undergraduate and school students as well as teachers at secondary level.
Further details about the event and online registration is available at www.port.ac.uk/translationconference.
We hope to see some of you there!
Best,
Carol
