Questions for Sarah Grunnah

  1. What is the process like when translating a play from Spanish to English? What are similarities and differences in this process compared to translating prose text? What aspects of “El amor médico” did you try most to conserve in the English version?
  2. We read an excerpt of your translation last semester, and this semester are reading Tirso de Molina’s original in Spanish. Just curious, why did you choose to include the comma in the title of your translation “Love, the Doctor”, while this is not found in the Spanish title?
  3. (Perhaps this is too personal of a question and not necessary to ask.) Do you see comparisons/overlap between theater and figure skating? Do you approach the two interests from a similar mindset?
