Translation session with Dr. Vishal Bhadani



On 1st January we had translation workshop and talk with author Dr. Vishal Bhadani organized by Dept. Of English in which he took two session, first about short story telling and second was about translation. 
 



1st Session
Dr. Vishal Bhadani published his story collection under titled ‘Fictionalay’. Sir starts with that, You can read Short stories in ten minutes but it will stay with you forever. And may be truth in this… His some of stories masterpiece of his work and His reading of story gave us Knowledge of where to pause and press on words for good impact on listener’s mind.

2nd Session
His second session based on Translation theories. As we all know there are many Translation Theories like
1.The sociolinguistic Approach
2.The Communicate Approach
3.The Hermeneutic Approach
4. The linguistic Approach
5.The literary Approach
6. The Semiotic Approach etc.,

Why is Translation Important?
Literary translation is of huge importance. It helps to shape our understanding of the world around us in many ways. Reading Homer and Sophocles as part of a classical education in school helps to build an understanding of history, politics, philosophy and so much more. Meanwhile, reading contemporary translations provides fascinating insights into life in other cultures and other countries. In a fast-paced world so rife with misunderstanding and confusion, such efforts to share knowledge and experiences across cultural boundaries should be applauded.

That is why translation is an emerging and intersting field for academia. Vishal Sir shared his personal experiances of translation work.

Apart from that, 2nd session became an more interesting for everyone because Vishal Sir made an interactive. He gave us one worksheet and in that we have done Translation. Here is my translation work.


That was a memorable session. We came to know about that we have some new opportunities in this area of Translation. And Translation is always and interesting task though it is not easy too, but it always opens new door for literature.
