Manage episode 427501042 series 2811355
In this episode, Christopher Moseley talked about the state of the Estonian Language, Translations, his work on Minority and Endangered Languages and his Translation 'The Man Who Spoke Snakish' a Beautiful moving story of a boy who is tasked with preserving ancient traditions in the face of modernity written by Famous Estonian Author Andrus Kivirähk.
Christopher Moseley has been the General Editor of the UNESCO Atlas of the World’s Languages in Danger since 2008 and is now a member of the editorial team of its successor, the World Atlas of Languages. From 2007 to 2011, he was a Teaching Fellow in Latvian at the School of Slavonic and East European Studies at University College, London.
Originally from Australia, he came to Britain to study Scandinavian languages in 1974, but since then, his main interests have slipped eastwards to Finland and the Baltic countries. While working as a journalist and translator specialising in Baltic affairs at BBC Monitoring, Caversham, he completed a M.Phil., also at SSEES, on the dying Livonian language of Latvia – a close relative of Estonian. After 19 years’ service at the BBC, he became a freelance translator and editor in 2005. He is the author of Colloquial Estonian and co-author of Colloquial Latvian for Routledge. He has also co-edited the Routledge Atlas of the World’s Languages and edited the same publisher’s Encyclopedia of the World’s Endangered Languages and most recently the third edition of the Atlas of the world’s languages in danger for UNESCO. His most recent work is a revision of George Campbell’s Routledge Handbook of Scripts and Alphabets (2012). He translates into English from Estonian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Finnish, Danish and Swedish.
