¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ

To celebrate the European Day of Languages and the centenary of the publication of Ulysses, the School of Modern Languages & Applied Linguistics hosted a cultural event entitled Ulysses in Translation ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ on 27th September. The event was opened by Donal Ryan (School of English, Irish & Communication), winner of the Prix Jean Monnet for European Literature in 2021 for the French translation of his novel From a Low and Quiet Sea.
