Raiziss/de Palchi Translation Awards |
|
The $5,000 Raiziss/de Palchi Book Prize is given in alternate years for the translation into English of a significant work of modern Italian poetry. The prize was established through a bequest by Sonia Raiziss Giop, a poet, translator, and longtime editor of the literary magazine Chelsea.
Publishers may submit books published anytime in the past (not necessarily in 2007), but only books by living translators of
standard (non-dialect) Italian are eligible. Self-published collections do not qualify. Postmark deadline: January 31, 2008.
The judges for 2008 will be Emanuel di Pasquale, Eamon Grennan, and Michael F. Moore.
Send four copies of each book (no manuscripts) to:
