Professor Karen Emmerich, who is both an associate professor in the department and the new director of the Program in Translation and Intercultural Communication, has won the 2019 National Translation Prose Award of the American Literary Translators Association. She was recognized for her rendering of Ersi Sotiropoulos’ What’s Left of the Night from the original Greek. This is not Professor Emmerich’s first award for translation, and no doubt will not be the last, be we are proud to announce this new achievement.
