Escribas Modernas

View

Escribas Modernas is a long term project of collective translation. An English version of the novel Lectura Fácil is progressively built through the bilingual voices of various participants. It proposes a slow pirating process, from the original edited novel to a collective apocryphal publication. It does not pursue a mass production and distribution of the content but for the distribution to be living process, politic and transformative.
Translation with Constanza Castagnet, Catalina Reyes, Lucía Santana López, Aimee Theriot, Violeta Páez Armando, María Paris, Mariana Jurado Rico, Begoña Herrero de Zabala, Gema Calero Rodríguez, Naiara Illescas.
Digital Archive with Eurico Sá Fernándes, Begoña Herrero de Zabala, Nick Reilly-McVittie, Jean-François Peschot and Léo Ravy.
