MPT FEATURE
Poetry Translation Workshops
The MPT Editors, David and Helen Constantine, have had the opportunity to run poetry translation workshops in schools, and as part of poetry courses such as Arvon, and poetry festivals including Aldeburgh over the last few years. They have also participated in a workshop organised by the British Council in Russia. MPT Board members such as Amarjit Chandan have also been involved in running poetry translation workshops. Former Board member Sian Williams organised a series of poetry translation workshops in schools based around the 'Palestine' (Series 3/9) issue of MPT in 2008.
MPT has plans to increase the number of workshops we are involved in over the coming 2-3 years through partnerships with other organisations. We are also planning an 'MPT Day' conference, including key speakers, workshops and discussions in 2012. More information will follow.
