Center for Japanese Studies Seminar Series

March 13, 3:30pm - 5:00pm
Manoa Campus, Center for Korean Studies Conference Room

Professor Juliet Winters Carpenter (Department of English, Doshisha Women's College or Liberal Arts) will give a talk titled "From Mozart to the Movies: A Year in the Life of a Translator." While some translators devote their entire career to the works of a single author, Professor Carpenter finds one of the most exciting things about my work is the chance to tackle a wide variety of projects.

In 2006, she had five book-length translations published: a bilingual child's introduction to Mozart, a book of modern poetry, a murder mystery, an examination of the meaning of life from the perspective of Shin Buddhism, and a memoir of making movies with Akira Kurosawa. Each was different in terms of how she became involved in the project, how long it took, and the process involved. She will discuss some of the challenges and opportunities of translation through the prism of these projects.
