Fwd: translators

[Robert Chandler]

Dear all,

Please see below the account of what has just happened at the Second International Congress of Literary Translators ( in Russian)
 
http://grani.ru/blogs/free/entries/206182.html
 
In short: translators  wanted to include in the final resolution of the  Congress a paragraph demanding the release of political prisoners in Russia and in support of freedom of speech.  The conference organizers managed to avoid fulfilling their request. So the signatures are being collected on the web-site Grani.Ru and on Facebook. If you wish to join your colleagues in Russia and elsewhere, you are more than welcome to sign up too!
 
The simplest way to do this is probably to send a message to Natalya Mavlevich through Facebook.  Or you can register on Grani.ru

All the best,

Robert
