  • 28Th Annual Agents & Editors Conference Craft • Business • Community
    28TH ANNUAL AGENTS & EDITORS CONFERENCE CRAFT • BUSINESS • COMMUNITY SEPTEMBER 17-19, 2021 AUSTIN, TEXAS 1 On behalf of everyone here at the Writers’ League of Texas, welcome to the 28th annual Agents & Editors Conference. Whether you’re joining us in-person or virtually, we can’t thank you enough for setting aside this weekend to be a part of this event and this writing community. The last time we gathered for this conference was June 2019, what feels like a lifetime ago. In June 2020, we canceled our in-person plans and stepped into the virtual space to host a free and open to all weekend of programming, the UnConference. Now, in 2021, we are so excited to be back at the Hyatt Regency with all of you – and also thrilled to be bringing this event to a larger audience virtually. The panels, conversations, and presentations you’ll find detailed here will cover everything from submitting to literary journals to catching an agent’s eye to writing for young people and beyond. This year, we’re introducing pre-confer- ence virtual sessions featuring published authors and their book editors, plus special In Conversation sessions with authors we admire talking with each other about compelling topics. And we’re celebrating our WLT Book Awards’ 30th anniversary on Saturday evening. (Yes, there will be cake.) For the first time ever, we’ll have in-person and virtual consultations taking place during the conference and we’ll be recording every single session and even live streaming a few. We will have limited seating in breakout rooms to keep in line with our social distancing guidelines, but you’ll receive recordings of every session once the conference concludes.

Paul Auster’ın Cam Kent adlı Eserinin İki Çevirisi üzerine bir Çalışma. Yüksek Lisans Tezi, Ankara, 2015. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Paul Auster’ın Cam Kent romanının iki farklı çevirisinde çevirmene zorluk yaratacak öğelerin çevirmenler tarafından nasıl çevrildiğini Venuti’nin yerlileştirme ve yabancılaştırma kavramları ışığı altında analiz ederek çevirmenlerin uyguladıkları stratejileri tespit etmektir. Bunun yanı sıra Venuti’nin çevirmenin görünürlüğü ve görünmezliği yaklaşımları temel alınarak hangi çevirmenin daha görünür ya da görünmez olduğunu ortaya koymak amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda, çevirmenler için zorluk yaratan öğelerin sıklıkla kullanıldığı ve postmodern biçemiyle bilinen Paul Auster’a ait Cam Kent adlı eserin Yusuf Eradam (1993) ve İlknur Özdemir (2004) tarafından Türkçe’ye yapılan iki farklı çevirisi analiz edilmiştir. Bu eserin çevirisini zorlaştıran faktörler; özel isimler, kelime oyunları, bireydil, dilbilgisel normlar, tipografi, gönderme ve yabancı sözcükler olmak üzere yedi başlık altında toplanmış olup Cam Kent romanının iki farklı çevirisinde tercih edilen çeviri stratejileri karşılaştırılmıştır. Bu karşılaştırma, Venuti’nin çevirmenin görünmezliği yaklaşımı temel alınarak hangi çevirmenin daha görünür ya da görünmez olduğunu incelemek üzere yapılmıştır. İki çevirinin karşılaştırmalı analizinin ardından, iki çevirmenin de farklı öğeler için yerlileştirme ve yabancılaştırma yaklaşımlarını bir çeviri stratejisi olarak kullandığı sonucuna varılmıştır.

  • 213 Nothing Like the South: Aurora Greenway – a Belle
    NOTHING LIKE THE SOUTH: AURORA GREENWAY – A BELLE IN EXILE Anca Peiu University of Bucharest Larry McMurtry’s Terms of Endearment has been better known as a 1983 successful silver-screen story than as a 1975 best-selling novel, rather as a multiplereceiver of Academy Awards than as a most accomplished book by a prolific author and Pulitzer Prize winner. My return to it is justified by some recently read essays – neither on the film, nor on the book – but on the Belle and the South (indeed, an archetypal coupling somehow echoing Beauty and the Beast ). As for my title here – it oscillates between two Shakesperean sonnets: Sonnet 130 and Sonnet 3. Both poems appeal particularly to the sense of sight ; they are versions of that type of painting (also fiction) known as a portrait of a lady – who stays the lady even if she defies any canon of lady-likelihood – both as Shakespeare’s (image of the) lover and as McMurtry’s Southern Belle – from My mistress’ eyes are nothing like the sun… Thou art thy mother’s glass, and she in thee Calls back the lovely April of her prime; So thou through windows of thine age shalt see, Despight of wrinkles, this thy golden time… The latter quote opens Larry McMurtry’s novel, as a necessary motto. It evokes a specific traditional relationship: mother-daughter, by the classic symbol of the mirror . It could send us – via Larry McMurtry’s novel – to Katherine Henninger’s astute study of the impact of photography on the Visual Legacies of the South: Picture a southern woman .

    COMPARATIVE LITERATURE (Div. I) Chair, Associate Professor CHRISTOPHER NUGENT Professors: BELL-VILLADA, CASSIDAY, DRUXES, S. FOX, FRENCH, KAGAYA**, NEWMAN***, ROUHI, VAN DE STADT. Associate Professors: C. BOLTON***, DEKEL, S. FOX, HOLZAPFEL, MARTIN, NUGENT, PIEPRZAK***, THORNE, WANG**. Assistant Professors: BRAGGS*, VARGAS. Visiting Assistant Professor: EQEIQ. Students motivated by a desire to study literary art in the broadest sense of the term will find an intellectual home in the Program in Comparative Literature. The Program in Comparative Literature gives students the opportunity to develop their critical faculties through the analysis of literature across cultures, and through the exploration of literary and critical theory. By crossing national, linguistic, historical, and disciplinary boundaries, students of Comparative Literature learn to read texts for the ways they make meaning, the assumptions that underlie that meaning, and the aesthetic elements evinced in the making. Students of Comparative Literature are encouraged to examine the widest possible range of literary communication, including the metamorphosis of media, genres, forms, and themes. Whereas specific literature programs allow the student to trace the development of one literature in a particular culture over a period of time, Comparative Literature juxtaposes the writings of different cultures and epochs in a variety of ways. Because interpretive methods from other disciplines play a crucial role in investigating literature’s larger context, the Program offers courses intended for students in all divisions of the college and of all interests. These include courses that introduce students to the comparative study of world literature and courses designed to enhance any foreign language major in the Williams curriculum. In addition, the Program offers courses in literary theory that illuminate the study of texts of all sorts.

Deposit Guide Contact: email 1 Reading to You, or the Aesthetics of Marriage Dialogic Intertextuality in the Works of Siri Hustvedt and Paul Auster Alexander Williamson Doctoral thesis submitted in partial completion of a PhD at Birkbeck, University of London July 2017 2 Abstract Using a methodological framework which develops Vera John-Steiner’s identification of a ‘generative dialogue’ within collaborative partnerships, this research offers a new perspective on the bi-directional flow of influence and support between the married authors Siri Hustvedt and Paul Auster. Foregrounding the intertwining of Hustvedt and Auster’s emotional relationship with the embodied process of aesthetic expression, the first chapter traces the development of the authors’ nascent identities through their non-fictional works, focusing upon the autobiographical, genealogical, canonical and interpersonal foundation of formative selfhood. Chapter two examines the influence of postmodernist theory and poststructuralist discourse in shaping Hustvedt and Auster’s early fictional narratives, offering an alternative reading of Auster’s work outside the dominant postmodernist label, and attempting to situate the hybrid spatiality of Hustvedt and Auster’s writing within the ‘after postmodernism’ period.
