The data clearly show that the Catalan language and culture maintained a significant international presence in 2024. The IRL subsidised nearly 200 translations of works in Catalan and Occitan into other languages, representing a 42% increase compared to 2023 and setting a new record. The new support scheme for international performing arts programming has enabled over 80 Catalan companies to perform on stages in 23 countries. The exhibition on psychiatrist Francesc Tosquelles at the American Folk Art Museum in New York has attracted over 20,000 visitors. Catalan is currently being taught at 10 of the world's top 25 universities, according to the Times Higher Education World University Rankings, including the University of Oxford, the University of California, Berkeley, and the University of Chicago.

<![CDATA[Cutting edge translation in French: La passion selon Renée Vivien by Maria Mercè Marçal]]>18/12/2024
“Je suis très lasse, et je ne veux plus que l’oubli. Je m’en vais sans colère et sans haine, pareille à ceux-là qui n’ont point de parents ni d’amis. Je pars comme on retourne allégée et ravie de pardonner engin à l’amour et la vie. Sans hâte et sans effroi, je rentre dans la nuit, avec tout ce qui glisse, avec tout ce qui fuit”.

La passion selon Renée Vivien, Maria-Mercè Marçal (Eros Onyx éditions, 2024) Translator: Nicole G. Albert (French)

<![CDATA[2024 Quick peep: Book Fairs, Festivals & Modern Poetry in Translation]]>18/12/2024
Throughout the year many are the occasions where the Institut Ramon Llull has been present at different literary events abroad. Looking back at 2024 we surely would see to start with 12 book fairs around the world: from Latin America to Central Europe and from the US to Middle East and the Nordic countries. And to continue, we would also scan the International Literary Festivals, where the authors meet and connect, and with luck they could find their elective affinities, even everlasting. Also, we would like to underline the magazine MPT (Modern Poetry in Translation -the best world poetry in English-), and the current issue devoted to Catalan language and poetry.
