Timothy Corsellis Prize Competition

The posts on this blog have been sparse of late, due to illness that hopefully won't last long. Meanwhile I'm posting something that has only a tenuous connection with translation. I do so at the request of an old friend, John Corsellis, as a tribute to his work as an interpreter in Europe at the end of World War II. For more about that, enter john corsellis in the Search box on the right. (It's important to include john in the entry because his wife Ann Corsellis is well known in translation circles.)

It's the Timothy Corsellis Prize Competition for young poets writing in English. The age limits are 14 to 25. Open to competitors world wide and funded for six years.
