The Poetry Translation Centre<\/a> is very proud to partner with the Ak\u00e9 Arts and Books Festival to present a special series of translation workshops on the Nigerian languages of Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa.<\/p>\n

Join like-minded poetry lovers from across the world to discover new poetry and different cultures, share insights and language skills, working together to open up a poem in its original language and reassemble it in English. The result will be new group translations of contemporary Nigerian poems by Oladapo Olatubosun, Auwalu Anwar and Amarachi Attamah.<\/p>\n

To help in this task you will be guided by a translator who is an expert in the language that is the focus for that session, and a professional poet. They will offer insight into the nuances of the language and culture, and give helpful suggestions for the direction of the translation that is produced.<\/p>\n

Taking place online via Google Meet, the workshops are the perfect way to keep yourself feeling creative, engaged and connected to the world at large. A rough and ready guide translation is provided by the guest translator so there is no need to know the language being translated – simply sign up and bring your love of poetry and language.<\/p>\n

Three 90 minutes sessions focussing on a poem in each language will take place on Thursday 22 October 2020:
\nYoruba language workshop on the poetry of Oladapo Olatubosun: 10:00-11:30
\nHausa language workshop on the poetry of Auwalu Anwar: 12:30-14:00
\nIgbo language workshop on the poetry of Amarachi Attamah: 15:00-16:30<\/p>\n
