Gilda Dina

Gilda Dina – Translator

I am a native Italian literary translator from English mostly experienced in non-fiction.

Overview

I can provide culturally resonant translations in my native language thanks to my education in Intercultural Mediation and Translation, which attuned my thoughtful approach to otherness and my ability to convey it to my native culture.

So far, I have been given the chance to engage with works of translation in the field of Anthropology, Sociology, Arts and Philosophy, as well as with the translation of journalistic accounts.
