Inger Hesjevoll Schmidt-Melbye

About

I am a Senior Research Librarian/ Subject librarian for Literature, Language and Cultural History at the NTNU University Library (The Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, Norway).

I hold a doctoral degree in Translation of Francophone Literature from NTNU; "Entre intention et intuition- une étude traductologique d'oeuvres africaines francophones en norvégien" (2014).

I have teacher, supervisor and examiner experience for Bachelor and Master students, mostly in French, but also in English.

My research interests and publications lie within the fields of Translation Studies, Editorial History and Revision, Modern French and Francophone (African) Literature, and Multilingual Literature. I am currently a member of the research group The Politics of Rewriting (OmPol).
