Our sixth workshop 'Going East: Crossing Linguistic, Cultural and Media Borders Between Europe and Asia' would have happened this week @IMLR_News, but it was more appropriate to delay till May 2021. We will confirm the new date in the next few months. migratingtexts.wordpress.com

Delighted that Parasite won Best Picture, & excited to see what that does for subtitled films in anglophone markets in the future! theguardian.com/film/2020/feb/… #filmtranslationhistory

Brilliant to see a subtitler in the news: Darcy Paquet, subtitler of Bong Joon-ho's Parasite: korea.net/NewsFocus/Cult…. Fascinating details of subtitling choices (none of which gave me pause during the film) #namethetranslator #namethesubtitler

Radio 4 is broadcasting the `Blood, Sex and Money' adaptation serial of Zola's Rougon-Macquart again, so this is a good opportunity to revisit our blog on the 2014 panels on adapting Dickens and Zola. migratingtexts.wordpress.com/2014/11/15/mig… bbc.co.uk/programmes/b06…

Save the date for our next FREE workshop on translation, adaptation and subtitling @IMLR_News! More details later. Fri 15 May 2020 `Going East: Crossing Linguistic, Cultural & Media Borders Between Europe and Asia' See our website for previous events: migratingtexts.wordpress.com

Did you attend Migrating Texts in May? We're already thinking about plans for next year and would really appreciate any feedback about what worked/what you would change or add. Thank you!

The recording of our latest colloquium, on audiences and subtitling, translation and adaptation is now available. We used lecture capture, so you can see the screen and hear the voices, but not always see the speakers. youtube.com/watch?v=hnxJlv…

@dorrego Thank you for coming and for such a clear overview of the field.

Had a great time at @MigratingTexts. Thanks to the organisers for the invitation and the fantastic work!
