While recognising the status of translations as original works in their own merit, authors and translators faced different challenges in the rapidly changing transnational landscape. Drawing on research on the post-Unification Italian publishing industry, the paper discusses the different treatment of translations\u2019 and translators\u2019 copyright in the first half of the 20th century, and explores the consequences of such power imbalance for the structural and professional development of the Italian book trade.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_x_x_MsoNormal\"><strong>About our speaker:<\/strong><br \/>\nAnna Lanfranchi is a Teaching Fellow in Translation and Transcultural Studies and Italian at the University of Warwick (UK).

Her first monograph, Translations and Copyright in the Italian Book Trade: Publishers, Agents, and the State (1900-1947) (Palgrave 2024) explores the legal frameworks and the professional networks informing the negotiation of translation rights to British and US works in Italy in the first half of the 20th century.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Speaker: Anna Lanfranchi \u2013 Teaching Fellow in Translation &amp; Transcultural Studies &amp; Italian at the University of Warwick This research seminar is a hybrid event and is free &amp; open&#8230;<a class=\"read-more\" href=\"&#104;&#116;&#116;&#112;&#115;&#58;&#47;&#47;&#114;&#101;&#115;&#101;&#97;&#114;&#99;&#104;&#46;&#114;&#101;&#97;&#100;&#105;&#110;&#103;&#46;&#97;&#99;&#46;&#117;&#107;&#47;&#99;&#101;&#110;&#116;&#114;&#101;&#45;&#102;&#111;&#114;&#45;&#98;&#111;&#111;&#107;&#45;&#99;&#117;&#108;&#116;&#117;&#114;&#101;&#115;&#45;&#97;&#110;&#100;&#45;&#112;&#117;&#98;&#108;&#105;&#115;&#104;&#105;&#110;&#103;&#47;&#101;&#118;&#101;&#110;&#116;&#47;&#116;&#114;&#97;&#110;&#115;&#108;&#97;&#116;&#105;&#111;&#110;&#115;&#45;&#99;&#111;&#112;&#121;&#114;&#105;&#103;&#104;&#116;&#45;&#116;&#114;&#97;&#110;&#115;&#108;&#97;&#116;&#111;&#114;&#115;&#45;&#99;&#111;&#112;&#121;&#114;&#105;&#103;&#104;&#116;&#45;&#97;&#45;&#104;&#105;&#115;&#116;&#111;&#114;&#121;&#45;&#111;&#102;&#45;&#112;&#111;&#119;&#101;&#114;&#45;&#105;&#109;&#98;&#97;&#108;&#97;&#110;&#99;&#101;&#45;&#105;&#110;&#45;&#116;&#104;&#101;&#45;&#105;&#116;&#97;&#108;&#105;&#97;&#110;&#45;&#98;&#111;&#111;&#107;&#45;&#116;&#114;&#97;&#100;&#101;&#47;\">Read More ><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":804,"featured_media":2533,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"__cvm_playback_settings":[],"__cvm_video_id":"","_tribe_events_status":"","_tribe_events_status_reason":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[],"tribe_events_cat":[],"coauthors":[49],"class_list":["post-2534","tribe_events","type-tribe_events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8.1 -
