We live in a multilingual society, but we still insist on a hierarchical classification of the languages that we speak and talk about mother tongues, native languages, and first, second or third languages. This designation also goes hand in hand with certain roles, competencies or even class models of the languages. Which languages should we or are we allowed to write or translate in? Who decides which languages these are and why? And how do the languages influence each other? How does switching between several languages in one body work? What creative energies are released here, what contexts are served?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And how do collaborative processes between writers and translators work, when the writers don\u2019t understand the target language of the translation? How can one\u2019s own work be presented transparently or the translation approach explained? The starting point for this day-long workshop is the collaboration between Barbora Schnelle and Sivan Ben Yishai, who both work in multilingual and collaborative contexts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
