2010 William F. Sibley Memorial Translation Prize in Japanese Literature

The winners of the first (2010) William F. Sibley Memorial Translation Prize in Japanese Literature have been announced. The four winners were selected from amongst many strong submissions not only for the quality of the translations, but for the literary and historical importance of each work, which the selection committee feel will make valuable additions to the body of Japanese literature available in English. These translations are being made freely available for classroom and scholarly use. 

The 2011 competition is now open (deadline 2 December 2011).
