ASLE Translation Grants support work in ecocriticism from international scholars translating books or other substantial projects (such as longer articles) into English, or from English into other languages. Proposed works should be ecocriticism or fiction/non-fiction with a clear relationship to environmental issues, and must already have been published. We encourage authors to seek publishers for their work. Funding for accepted works to be translated will be up to a possible maximum of $1,000 each.
The Translation Grants share a funding pool with our Subvention Grants, and won’t be offered in biennial conference (odd) years. The 2024 ASLE Grants submission period is now open, see details:
In order to support work in ecocriticism from international scholars and to expand exchanges across cultures and continents, the ASLE Committee for Translations seeks proposals for books or other substantial projects (such as longer articles) to be translated into English, or from English into other languages. Proposed works should be ecocriticism or fiction/non-fiction with a clear relationship to environmental issues, and must already have been published. We encourage the publication of these translations; please comment on plans to do so.
