    This course will introduce students to recent translation theory. Students will work to understand and practice different approaches to translation. The course has a practical orientation and will provide hands-on translation practice. While we will consider some French to English translation, the bulk of the work will be from English into French. The corpus of works to be translated will range broadly: literature, journalism, business, history, film, technical fields.
