We encourage translations of writers and of work which are not well represented in English translation. All proposed projects must be for creative translations of published literary material into English. The work to be translated should be of interest for its literary excellence and value. Priority will be given to projects that involve work that has not yet been translated into English. Competition for fellowships is extremely rigorous. Potential applicants should consider carefully whether their work will be competitive at the national level.
