The project SHORT-Stories for a Long-lasting multilingual and multicultural Europe (SHORT-L) has the general objective to promote European cultural and linguistic diversity, through a wide transnational circulation of high quality literary works by EUPL awarded authors. The project focuses on the translations of 4 short stories collections, considering the less represented short-stories genre among the most suitable to feature the multiplicity that compose the European cultural diversity, and of 2 novels, which have been selected – besides their stylistic value – for their historical contents, able to useful for illuminating as many fundamental periods of recent European history. The translations will be to the four languages most spoken in Europe (all in Italian, one in Italian and English, one in Italian, French and German) for a wide distribution in EU and beyond (USA and Canada), the project targeting not only general public and strong readers, but also young audience and Italian language students and readers all over Europe (with a particular focus on Albania), always promoting the role of professional translators both towards the general public of readers and the scientific community.To reach its goals, SHORT-L will display wide distribution and promotion campaigns, combining traditional and innovative tools: from a diffuse presence in bookstores, libraries, literary festivals and book fairs to an extent e-commerce policy; using both off- and on- line media, launching broad web and social network campaigns, using participative tools specifically created for young audience (i.e. book-trailer contest, graphics, comics and strip reviews, book-bits and so on) and involving literary bloggers, testimonial and influencer; finally, activating and renewing a wide network of institutional relationships in Italy and abroad, with Italian Embassies and Consulates, Italian Culture Institutes and Dante Alighieri Committees, as well as Italian and Bilingual schools. |
