The Translation Circle serves as a space where the JHU community can gather to take and workshop translation. This working group typically meets biweekly, with the meeting focusing on one or two translation projects shared by members. We emphasize the hands-on workshopping of translations, but broader questions frequently come into discussion. Occasionally, Translation Circle members might present completed projects and discuss the process, challenges, and joys of their work. We invite a guest translator to campus each semester to give a talk and\/or workshop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
