Calque: A loan-translation, especially one resulting from bilingual interference.

Calque Press is a small and occasional press founded by a UK-EU team. We celebrate intersection between languages, ideas, crafts, genres and cultures. We are different, but we are not strangers.

Introducing Cuadernos Calque

A new bi-annual journal with a focus on on exophonic writing and translation, Cuadernos Calque is an experiment open to multi-lingual authors, bilingual authors, authors who translate themselves into English, authors who write in their non-native language, etc. Authors and translators from any language are encouraged to submit.

Edited by Marian Womack. Cuadernos Calque is offered as a free PDF download; a very small number of printed copies is available to subscribers.
