Description: DoubleSpeak is the University of Pennsylvania’s only journal for literary translation and the only literary translation journal in the country run by undergraduate students. Founded over a decade ago, our annual (print and online) journal celebrates a range of languages and cultures through thoughtful curation of poets across centuries and around the world. We publish translations of poems both little-known and internationally beloved, from a profound variety of languages and dialects. Along with the original on the facing page, each translation is accompanied by a biographical note about the poet and a substantial “translator’s note,” in which the contributor reflects on particular challenges of the translation process.
