From: Translating Canada
$1.20
This chapter explores the different ways in which theatre texts from francophone Canada travel to Germany. It examines the support available from European and Canadian institutions and the roles played by agencies and publishers. A case study of the way Daniel Danis’s Le chant du Dire-Dire travelled to Germany provides a real-life example.
