Conference – ‘Crime in Translation’, Portsmouth, UK
Saturday 9th November, University of Portsmouth, UK

However it’s not only in fiction that translation meets crime. The police and the courts rely heavily on public service interpreters and translators. Translation itself is criminalised in various ways, e.g. in relation to copyright infringement, legal proceedings against translators of ‘problematic’ texts and various forms of piracy.
