Oxford Translation Day: Award of the Oxford-Weidenfeld Prize 2020
The Oxford-Weidenfeld Prize is for book-length literary translations into English from any living European language. It aims to honour the craft of translation, and to recognise its cultural importance. It was founded by Lord Weidenfeld and is supported by New College, The Queen's College and St Anne's College, Oxford.
This year the winner of the Oxford-Weidenfeld Prize was announced on 30 September-International Translation Day-during an online ceremony hosted by English PEN. Tickets for the award ceremony were available here.
To accompany the award of the Prize, we uploaded a number of videos in which the shortlisted translators discuss or read from their respective translations. The videos were uploaded on our website at midday on 30 September and are available here.
