“Humble beginnings to something quite remarkably wonderful”:

A Short History of the BU Translation Seminar

Anna Elliott

Preface

For over thirty years, Room 625 in BU’s School of Theology has been home to the same seminar, offered every year, “The Theory and Practice of Literary Translation.” The Seminar has served not only as a means of training BU students in the theory and practice of translation, but also as a regional forum for the discussion of all manner of problems connected to literary translation. The weekly lectures by translators and translation theorists – practitioners and scholars from all over the globe, working in an ever-expanding array of languages, from ancient Hebrew and Greek to modern Turkish and Chinese – drew, and continue to draw, large audiences from BU, the surrounding academic community, and the general public. Local literary figures have frequently attended, and presentations have often been broadcast by WBUR. Many of these talks have been recorded and, in recent years, videotaped, resulting in a unique historical archive of conversations on translation. Over the decades, the Seminar has gained the reputation as one of the most distinctive courses taught at the University, “a jewel in BU’s crown.”
