Letter From the Editor

Thank you for visiting the web site for TWO LINES: a journal of translation! Please bookmark this page now for future reference.

TWO LINES is an annual print-based journal publishing original English translations of international literature, with a special focus on the translation process. In each issue of TWO LINES, you will find works from around the globe that have been organized around a theme.

Every translation we select is accompanied by the author's original text and an introduction by the translator which serves to place the piece in its cultural context and provide new insight into the translator's craft. These introductions, in which our contributors are free to describe the art and challenges of translation, make TWO LINES unique among journals of world literature.

I invite you to use this web site to browse the contents of our past issues, examine a directory of published contributors, authors or languages translated to date, and obtain order information. If you are a translator, this web site also provides theme announcements for upcoming issues, submission guidelines, and a list of translation resources.

Enjoy your visit here. We look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Olivia E. Sears, Editor
