SUMMARY:Oud: A Musical History with Stephen Elaimy and Jane Hall
DESCRIPTION:Folio welcomes Stephen Elaimy (oud) and Jane Hall (darabuka & riqq) of the Arabic Music Ensemble House of Tarab for an immersive musical journey through the history of the oud. Known as the “king of instruments” across the Middle East and North Africa\, this ancient\, fretless lute is celebrated for its deep\, resonant tone and its unique ability to produce the subtle microtonal inflections central to Arabic music. Accompanied by traditional percussion\, the duo will bring the instrument’s sweeping history to life\, tracing its path from ancient Mesopotamia and the golden age of Egyptian film to the melodic traditions of the Levant and its surprising influence on modern Western scores.

SUMMARY:Not So Simple! Translating Young Adult Literature as Resistance and Entertainment with Sawad Hussain
DESCRIPTION:There is a common misconception in literary publishing that books for children and young adults are “simple” and are\, therefore\, easy to translate. But translating literature for younger people is not simple at all. How does the process of “curating” young people’s literature involve translators’ negotiation with the expectations of English-language editors and publishers? How might translation of young people’s literature into English function as a form of decolonization and resistance? What are the sensitivity issues that are particular to publishing young adult literature? Should young adult literature in translation be handled like highbrow adult literature in translation\, like “ordinary” YA literature\, or something in between? And\, finally\, does the original language of the book or its country of origin affect these calculations? Join the panel of three distinguished translators—Sawad Hussain (Arabic)\, Shelley Fairweather-Vega (Russian and Uzbek)\, and Takami Nieda (Japanese)—for an engaging discussion of these issues. \n  \nSawad Hussain is a translator from Arabic whose work has been recognised by\, among others\, The Warwick Prize for Women in Translation and the National Book Award for Translated Literature. Recent releases include a co-translated sci-fi YA title (I Want Golden Eyesby Maria Dadouch) and a murder mystery YA novel (The Djinn’s Apple by Djamila Morani). A former Co-Chair of the Translator’s Association (UK)\, she is committed to mentoring literary translators and developing the industry in general. \n
