SUMMARY:Grand Translation Slam in the Age of AI
DESCRIPTION:November 26\, 202312:15-1:15 PM ESTAgora\, Palais des congrès de Montréal\n\n\n\nTwo pairs of lit­er­ary trans­la­tors head into a book­ish bat­tle of words\, against each oth­er and against an AI trans­la­tion tool. How does each trans­la­tion choice bend mean­ing and tone to cre­ate the final effect? Can AI cap­ture the nuance nec­es­sary in lit­er­ary trans­la­tion or in any trans­la­tion? Hear the texts morph from one lan­guage to the next\, as the trans­la­tors delve into the sub­tleties of trans­lat­ing fic­tion. Fol­lowed by a Q&A with the audi­ence. (Pre­sent­ed in French & English). \n\n\n\nFeaturing:\n\n\n\n\nSean Michaels\, Author\n\n\n\nÉric Fontaine\, Translator\n\n\n\nCatherine Ego\, Translator\n\n\n\nJ.D.
