W.G. Sebald Lecture
David Bellos will deliver this year's W.G. Sebald Lecture tomorrow, on: "The Myths and Mysteries of Literary Translation" -- and you can watch live (though you do have to register). It's at 16:00 local (London) time, and should be well worthwhile.
Bellos teaches at Princeton, and has translated works including Georges Perec's Life A User's Manual and Romain Gary's Hocus Bogus; among his books are the biography, Georges Perec and Is That a Fish in Your Ear ?
