TRANSLASIEN
Science fiction from China, poetry from Japan, novels from India: in the coming months, the TRANSLASIEN project at CATS will produce a series of literary translations from Asian languages into German. The project has awarded a total of eleven stipends for projects that will translate literary works from five South and East Asian languages, all taught at CATS: Chinese, Japanese, Dari, Urdu, and Hindi. The literary translators will work at CATS in the coming months. Excerpts of their work will later be presented in public readings and be available on the TRANSLASIEN website.
