Michael Hamburger was one of the foremost mediators of modern European - mainly German and Austrian - literature to readers in English. Born into a German family of Jewish descent, he came to the UK as a refugee in 1933. He became a poet, a literary critic, and the translator of a very broad range of writers, including Hölderlin, Goethe, Rilke, Celan, Brecht, Ernst Jandl, Hans Magnus Enzens-berger and W. G. Sebald. Hamburger's archive at the British Library, which thus far is uncatalogued, comprises 94 boxes of drafts of translations, poems and essays; correspondence with writers, publishers and friends; and diaries and personal reflections among many other documents. The CDP offers a unique opportunity, through research, cataloguing, and public engagement, to illuminate processes that have been at the core of Anglo-German cultural relations in the past three-quarters of a century: the translation of literature, and specifically poetry; the writing of feuilleton-style and heavier literary criticism; and reflection at length on translation and cultural transfer. The project will enhance the current emphasis on the transnational in German studies, and it speaks to an enduring academic and public interest in the relationship between Germany and the United Kingdom. Equally, the existence of such a full archive makes this an outstanding opportunity for Translation Studies research.Alongside the PhD research, and integrally connected with it, the studentship will involve a significant contribution to the organisation and cataloguing of the archive, and to the evolving approaches to and understanding of translators' archives in the Library. Applicants are invited to propose a PhD project that approaches the Michael Hamburger Archive from one or more of the following angles. These are areas in which close, sustained engagement with the archive will achieve research insights which cannot be developed otherwise, and where academic research will interconnect closely with practical work for the Library.

迈克尔·汉伯格是现代欧洲（主要是德国和奥地利）文学向英语读者传播的最重要的调解人之一。他出生于一个犹太裔德国家庭，1933年以难民身份来到英国。他后来成为一名诗人、文学评论家，并翻译了许多作家的作品，包括荷尔德林、歌德、勃兰登堡、策兰、布雷希特、恩斯特·扬德尔、汉斯·马格努斯·恩岑斯-贝格和W. G.西博尔德汉堡包在大英图书馆的档案，迄今尚未编目，包括94箱翻译，诗歌和散文的草稿;与作家，出版商和朋友的通信;以及日记和个人反思等许多其他文件。CDP提供了一个独特的机会，通过研究，编目和公众参与，照亮了在过去四分之三的世纪中一直处于英德文化关系核心的过程：文学，特别是诗歌的翻译; feuilleton风格和更重的文学批评的写作;以及对翻译和文化转移的长期反思。该项目将加强目前对德国研究中跨国问题的重视，并表明学术界和公众对德国与英国之间关系的持久兴趣。同样，这样一个完整的档案的存在使这成为一个杰出的机会，翻译研究的研究。除了博士研究，并与之紧密相连，学生将涉及到档案的组织和编目的重大贡献，并不断发展的方法和理解图书馆的翻译档案。申请人被邀请提出一个博士项目，从以下一个或多个角度接近迈克尔汉堡档案。在这些领域，与档案馆的密切，持续的接触将实现研究的见解，这是不能以其他方式发展，并在学术研究将与图书馆的实际工作密切相连。
