'In-Nemmies', by Mr Alfred Scalpello (Department of German), is a Maltese translation of Charlotte Link's best-seller 'Der Beobachter'. The book was launched on Wednesday 27 April at the conference room of the Junior College.
After a brief welcome address by the author and Dr Philip Caruana, Junior College Vice-principal, Mr Joseph Vella from the Department of Maltese delivered a critical analysis of the Maltese translation.
Two brief scenes from the film version of the book were then shown. Ms Claudine Borg from the French department, a Ph.D. translation studies candidate, interviewed the translator, Alfred Scalpello. The event ended with the translator's reading of an extract from the book.
