Comparative Literature is pleased to announce that our doctoral candidates Penny Yeung and Sneha Khaund are the inaugural recipients of the Gnarra Family Fellowship in Translation.
The Gnarra Family Fellowship, established by alumna Dr. Irene E. Gnarra, is awarded to one or more graduate students pursuing a Ph.D. in Comparative Literature at Rutgers and “preparing a dissertation that involves translating a literary work [or literary materials] into English.” Each year, a faculty committee will select a recipient from its cohort after “they have passed all qualifying examinations and are actively preparing [their] dissertation.”
