Summary
A panel of translators and academics gathered in Boston to celebrate Asymptote’s third anniversary by discussing translation’s role in the academy, its relevance in the wider social context, and by examining particular translations from Japanese, Tamil, and Ukrainian. It was a full house that day at Outpost 186, as Nina Beguš notes—"a room full of translators".
