Process and request
As a translation agency for literature and cultural texts that operates throughout Germany, we work for clients in Weimar, Potsdam, Hildesheim, Oldenburg, Trier and Passau, among others, as well as in many other literary and cultural cities. We accompany you from the first text sample through the complete book translation to editing, proofreading and multilingual marketing campaigns. Are you planning a literary or cultural translation? Briefly tell us which texts (e.g. novel, play, non-fiction book, catalog or exhibition text) are to be translated, into which language and for which publisher, occasion or publication channel they are intended. Based on this, we will prepare a free, non-binding quote with price, processing time and workflow details.
