Arabic Translation Seminar in Oslo
As part of the preparation for Norway to be Guest of Honour at the Cairo Book Fair in 2024, NORLA is organising a seminar on Arabic translation on Thursday 11th of May. We are particularly interested in getting across to those who are already translating from Norwegian to Arabic, or those who would like to start. There are already a substantial amount of Norwegian literature in Arabic, but we need more translators!
We encourage everyone who would be interested to please get in touch.
Time: Thursday 11th of May. Talk and workshop from 2 pm to 6.30 pm, followed by dinner.
Place: Fritt Ord’s premises, Uranienborgveien 2.
