Interview with Maria Helena da Rocha Pereira (1 March 2006)



Interview with Maria Helena da Rocha Pereira, the decane of Classical Studies in Portugal. Renown "author of translations", she dislikes this trade and considers it a burden, a consequence of her field of research. One of the first translation exercises of this poliglot was the translation into Portuguese of Greek classics for a students' scenic group at the University of Coimbra, Portugal. Her work comprises more than 300 titles, such as translations, papers, books, and encyclopedia articles. Yet, her passion are Greek vases.
