[Interview] Translation - Commodification and Hegemony w/ Sina Rahmani

Today we're joined by special a very special guest, our friend Sina Rahmani from The East Is A Podcast! In our interview with Sina, we discussed what gets to be translated and who decides what's worth translating. This has implications in both the literary world as well as in the scholarly realm, and it was fascinating to discuss these sorts of questions. We highly recommend checking out Sina's show The East Is A Podcast wherever you get your pods (or at https://eastisapodcast.libsyn.com/). You also should definitely follow Sina on Twitter @UROrientalist. Special shoutouts also go to our dear friend Katya Kazbek, who we wanted to cite in this episode but only got permission to after recording, as well as The Cadre Journal and Louis Allday, who themselves had a very similar conversation together between when we planned this episode with Sina and the time we actually got it recorded.

[Linguistics] Introduction to Bilingualism

[Linguistics] Introduction to Bilingualism

This episode will act as a basic introduction to the concept of bilingualism from a linguistic standpoint, which we will continue to explore in future episodes on this theme with experts in the field. In future episodes of this "series", we will focus on the neurolinguistic side of bilingualism, some of the methodology in carrying out this research, and getting the thoughts of experts on some of the debates raging within this field. Hopefully you learn a thing or two from this video, and that this will serve as a useful primer for the upcoming episodes in the "bilingualism series".

Useful sources: To be updated.
