On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
In this talk Tatsiana Haiden will approach analysing the publisher´s translation policies from the translator-centred perspective, and will show the situations in which translators acted as initiators of the publishing process, as mediators between the author and the publisher, or as publisher´s agents abroad. Haiden will look at how translators influenced translation policies of the publisher in a long term perspective and how their social and symbolic capital helped surviving lives. Finally, Haiden will comment on the connection of the socio-political events, the choice of source languages in the respective years, and the translator´s role in it.
