Journals

T-JoLT Trinity Journal of Literary Translation 2013 The Trinity Journal of Literary Translation (JoLT for short) aims to publish facing translations from any languager into English. We are committed to maintaining an academic standard wherever possible, and we also publish brief articles and essay on translation, or around specific translation projects, awards and events. The Journal is run by Trinity Students (Undergrad and Postgrad) with the help of Dr. Peter Arnds, who sits on the Journal's Executive Board as Faculty Advisor. We accept submissions from Undergrads, Postgrads, Alumni of TCD and Staff -- as well as from Undergrads and Postrgrads world-wide who are studying a related field in their home institutions. This year's first edition (to be launched April 3rd) features work from around Ireland, mainly from TCD students who have attended other Irish colleges and Universities, from SOAS (Univeristy of London) and Columbia University (New York). We accept submissions from December to early March for our main issue, which comes out in early April in both an online and reduced print format. Both editions are fully citable and have their own ISSN's. For any questions please take a look at our work in progress website: www.trinityjolt.com or send an email to our 2012-2014 founding editor Claudio Sansone.
