Prismatic Jane Eyre: Translators' Video

The Prismatic Jane Eyre Schools Project (2021-2022) was an AHRC-funded joint project between the University of Oxford and the Stephen Spender Trust.
The Prismatic Jane Eyre Schools Project drew on translation as an educational tool to explore how Charlotte Brontë’s classic novel has been translated since its publication in 1847 and how its plots and themes can be used as a springboard for new creative works. The project comprised of three core activities: a series of translation workshops; a nation-wide translation competition; and a bank of resources for teachers and pupils.
The bank of resources aims to allow more young people to enjoy creative translation activities based on Jane Eyre. Initially developed to support entries to the competition, these resources now provide a lasting legacy for the Project. To find out more about these resources, what creative translation is, and why it’s important, watch our accompanying video.
