Rencontres de Strasbourg

European Conference on Literary Translation

10/20/20241 min read

Last October, European Council of Literary Translators' Associations (CEATL) organised a great conference in Strasbourg, bringing together all parties of the sector: translators, writers, publishers, booksellers, librarians, training establishments, residencies, book festivals and fairs, and all the organisations supporting literary translation in Europe.
It was a dense and enriching event, covering all themes and challenges, from working conditions to AI, from translating as a political act to the dialogue with Creative Europe. And as a sister organisation, CEATL kindly offered AVTE a "carte blanche" slot.

All the videos of the conference are now online on CEATL's website.

Here is AVTE's carte blanche, with Amalie Foss, AVTE's President and Estelle Renard, its co-secretary.
