Lost and Found in Translation

This course was created to provide advanced students of Spanish with foundational knowledge of the emergent field of Translation and Interpretation Studies. The course complements the curriculum in Spanish Language and Literatures by (1) building upon the Studies in Contemporary Communications cluster at the 300-level and (2) by honing advanced language skills, broadening cultural knowledge, and sharpening critical thinking skills. The course also makes connections with other fields in the Humanities--mainly Japanese, Classics, Theater, and Philosophy--by forging understandings on how notions of interpretation are enacted in these specific disciplines. Class will be taught in Spanish.
