Earlier this year, our very own Michael Biggins, Affiliate Professor and Slavic, Baltic, and East European Studies Librarian, was chosen for the Trubar Award by Slovenia’s National and University Library. Professor Biggins’ lifetime contributions to Slovenia’s literary heritage has had international implications. He has translated over twenty books of Slovene prose and poetry into English.
We sat down with Professor Biggins to talk to him about his impressive work as a translator and his lifelong commitment to sharing literatures unknown by the English-speaking world. Watch the interview here.
Many congratulations, Professor Biggins! We can’t wait to read your upcoming translations.
