Rossica Translation Prize

Rossica Translation Prize

The Rossica Translation Prize is an biennial award given to an exceptional published translation of a literary work from Russian into English. The prize was inaugurated in 2003 by Academia Rossica and has been presented since 2005. The distinction comes with a cash prize of £5,000, which is split between the translator and the publisher at the discretion of the panel of judges. The prize is awarded in London on the 24th of May, the birth date of Saints Cyril and Methodius, creators of the Slavic alphabet. Excerpts of the winning and runner-up translations are printed in an accompanying Rossica journal.
