Inalco Translation Prize

Endowed with 1,000 euros, this prize is designed to highlight the quality of a translator's work, as well as the richness of literatures that are sometimes still little known to the general public because they are often less widely distributed. Prose texts (short stories or novels) published in the three years preceding the award ceremony (2016-2018 for the 2019 edition) are eligible. Works translated by members or students of Inalco are not eligible.



Through this initiative, Inalco wishes to highlight its expertise in translation, as well as the recognition of the work of the translator and his or her publisher in the dialogue between the world's literatures.
