Call for Chinese Poetry Translators for Pathlight Issue 4: New Chinese Writing
Deadline: 15 September 2012

Chinese content for the next edition of Pathlight: New Chinese Writing has been set in soap, and the Paper Republic is glad to announce that this issue will include far more poetry than any of the previous issues have.

Faced with an abundance of work and a dearth of talented contacts, this is a call for motivated, experienced translators of Chinese poetry to establish a relationship with us.

To be featured are Zhu Ling (朱零), Ou Ning (欧宁), Yao Feng (姚风) , Wang Yin (王寅), Wang Xiaolong (王小龙), Yang Zi (杨子), Huang Jinming (黄金明) , Liao Weitang (廖伟棠) and Yang Xiaobin (杨小滨). The deadline is coming up soon; we'll do our best to assign poems based on their relationship with the translator, and first drafts will be due in mid-September.

Compensation is exceptional for poetry.
