The Translator as Creative Writer
BCLT bridges academic research and the literary translation profession, turning insights into real-world impact. Working with the National Centre for Writing and other partners, we design activities that support translators’ professional development and advance the field.
As an academic research centre with a mission to support the literary translation profession, BCLT is in a unique position. Working in close partnership with the National Centre for Writing and other key impact partners, we take pride in capitalising on our academic research to benefit the wider community.
In particular, we draw on the insights from our research in designing our programme of activities that contribute to the continuing professional development of translators.
BCLT has been instrumental in transforming the role of the literary translator - from a linguistic technician to a creative writer publicly recognised by literary prizes such as the Booker International.
