Literature in Praxis: Professional challenges of reading, translating and editing in the digital age
LITPRAX Workshop Novi Sad © Bojana Kovacevic Petrovic
Coordinated by the University of Ljubljana, the main purpose of this project is to train better readers and to provide students of the humanities with the necessary tools to be successful in all book-related professions - whether as teachers, publishers, translators, editors, etc.
In April 2024 the city of Ljubljana will host the LITPRAX Spring school dedicated to theatre production – and a LITPRAX Symposium with participants from Spain, Hungary, Czech Republic and further partner countries.
The Project officially ends on June 2024, but a database with several thousands of bibliographic references will assure its sustainability. Other results which will have a long-term impact will be the Curriculum, which is applied in the three universities, and the Manual on contemporary Spanish and Latin American literature, which will be made available worldwide. The LITPRAX Project would have been unimaginable without the long tradition of collaboration between the professors and researchers of the CEEPUS network “Red de Hispanistas de Europa Central”, that is active since 2010. Not only three of the university partners of the LITPRAX project are part of this network, but also many colleagues from other Spanish departments who have been collaborating for years through the CEEPUS programme were actively involved in the activities of the Litprax project and showed their interest in using the results of this project in their teaching and research activities.
