Translation is often seen as a solitary act, but for Amelia M. Glaser (@aglaser) and Yuliya Ilchuk, it’s a conversation—a process of deep listening, humility, negotiation, and shared discovery.
In this episode of #TranslationTalks, they take us inside their unique collaborative practice, where they translate contemporary Ukrainian poets together, workshop their interpretations, and rethink literary history in the process. They also discuss translation as a form of activism, the ethical and emotional weight of translating poetry from war zones, and how social media is shaping the global reach of Ukrainian literature.
Listen to this urgent and inspiring discussion about what it means to bring voices across borders—especially when, as Amelia Glaser puts it, “everything is at stake."
Amelia Glaser and Yuliya Ilchuk were shortlisted for the 2024 Griffin Poetry Prize for their translation of Halyna Kruk's 𝘼 ��𝙧𝙖𝙨𝙝 𝘾𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙨𝙚 𝙞𝙣 𝙈𝙤𝙡𝙤𝙩𝙤𝙫 𝘾𝙤𝙘𝙠𝙩𝙖𝙞𝙡𝙨, published by @arrowsmithpress. #TranslationTuesday

"I think we need to look at translation as something that brings or contributes to the Canadian landscape as opposed to not. I would like to see that reexamined and reconsidered."
—Emilie Moorhouse
