Ursula Deser Friedman is a College Fellow in the Department of Comparative Literature at Harvard University's Faculty of Arts and Sciences for the 2024-2025 academic year. Her research centers on literary (self-)translation and transmediation as tools for advancing social justice, with particular focus on queer and speculative émigré fiction within Sinophone contexts. She maintains an office in Barker Hall (room 063) and conducts office hours via Zoom by appointment. Dr. Friedman earned her Doctor of Philosophy from the University of California at Santa Barbara's Department of East Asian Languages & Cultural Studies in 2024, following a Master of Arts from Beijing Foreign Studies University's Graduate School of Translation and Interpretation (2017) and a Bachelor of Arts in East Asian Studies from Oberlin College (2014). Her academic trajectory reflects a deep commitment to cross-cultural communication and linguistic mediation. Friedman approaches literary (self-)translation as a reparative practice that heals historical wounds and enables radical empathy. Her dissertation and forthcoming book project, Self-Translation as Method: Modern Sinophone Self-Translators and their Transmediated Afterlives , conceptualizes self-translation as trauma reconciliation technology that (re-)inscribes national narratives within individual affective structures. She argues that by adapting their creations across languages, cultures, and media, Sinophone self-translators democratize language from the periphery. Her research spans Contemporary Chinese/Taiwanese/Sinophone and Latin American Literature, Translation Studies, Comparative/World Literature, and Media and Sound Studies. Her recent publications reveal consistent engagement with authors like Ha Jin, Kenneth Pai Hsien-yung, and Eileen Chang, examining how self-translation functions as creative subversion within marginalized communities. Friedman's work demonstrates how translation practices intersect with social justice movements, particularly through her focus on LGBTQIA+ narratives and diasporic experiences. She frequently analyzes how authors use self-translation to navigate cultural trauma and construct new identities across linguistic boundaries. Outside formal academic work, Friedman actively engages with creative writing that amplifies marginalized voices, particularly those of LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, imprisoned, and immigrant communities. She is currently compiling a comprehensive database of transcribed interviews with writers who translate and adapt their own work across languages and media, documenting these creative processes and their sociopolitical implications.
