Master Traduction et interprétation - Parcours Traduction littéraire

Students will acquire the critical tools necessary to understand the translation process and the phases of interculturality: history of translation, theories of translation, comparative methodologies, practices of literary translation, theories of interculturality, theories of literature, hermeneutics, currents in contemporary philosophy (French Theory).

The programme proposes to train literary translators in the following linguistic areas:

• Asian languages
• Languages of the Middle East
• Portuguese
• Slavic Languages

The standard course is structured around a common core aimed at the study of theoretical texts on literary translation on the one hand and the study of intercultural practices on the other.

Depending on the chosen languages of specialisation, each student follows the translation and literature courses in a foreign language department.

It is also possible to choose a thematic focus in translation studies. The students who enrol in this course are destined for research in General and Comparative Literature.

Advised degrees: Applied Languages; Foreign and Regional Languages, Literatures and Civilizations; Humanities
