And another event, this time for International Translation Day: a dynamic discussion on the similarities and differences in translation and interpretation needs, featuring panellists from Colombia and Canada. 🇨🇦🇨🇴 Co-hosted by York University & Toronto Metropolitan University. Sep 30 12pm EDT, Zoom

Mercredi (24 sept): Je vais parler de mon projet de recherche actuel--une revue systématique de la littérature qui porte sur la traduction et les bandes dessinées. I'll compare the results of 5 bibliographic database searches with GPT-5 and Scite_. C'est une communication en français.

Went to a fabulous performance of Carmina Burana by @torontosymphony.bsky.social last night. The orchestra was joined by the Toronto Mendelssohn Choir, Toronto Children's Chorus & three extraordinary soloists. My only question: who translated the lyrics in the program? There was no credit.

I'm training two new academic cats. So far, they've taken an inventory of my book collection before moving on to chase their tails for half an hour. They will make cameo appearances during Zoom calls upon request. #caturday

So glad TCAF has found a new venue for 2025. I've really enjoyed attending this festival: interesting talks by comic artists and writers, lots of exhibitors to visit, and many opportunities to get your favourite comics signed.

Thanks!

I'd like to read this interview but my Google searches for the quoted text have not been helpful. Would you mind sharing where/when was it published?

The first stage of the data collection for my new research project on comics, graphic novels and translation is done. I'm ready for some down time! I've just finished painting the minis (and reading the very long rule book) for this board game, so I'm going to try out Pest today.

Here is a starter pack for academics and researchers in Translation Studies.

Please let me know if you want to be added to this list.

Thanks for putting this together! I'd be happy to be included in the list as well.

Through December 5 at publishersforpalestine.org

Also Eden Robinson, but her Trickster series: Son of a Trickster, Trickster Drift, Return of the Trickster. (Though Moon of the Crusted Snow has stuck with me as well.)
