The Abu Dhabi International Book Fair (ADIBF) began yesterday, with the Book Institute participating for the second time. At our stand, we present books published abroad with the support of the ©Poland Translation Programme, including translations into Arabic, as well as books from the New Books from Poland catalogue.
The translation of Olga Tokarczuk’s Bieguni (“Flights”) translated by Teresa Fernandes Światkiewicz has been published in Portugal. The publication was supported by the Book Institute as part of the ©Poland Translation Programme.
The first full translation of Janusz Korczak's book Król Maciuś Pierwszy (“King Matt the First”) has been published in Italy. Italian Polish philologists and an Italian philologist together with students of the universities of Bologna, Florence, and the Pedagogical University of Cracow worked on the translation. The edition was supported by the Book Institute as part of the ©POLAND Translation Programme.
