Abstract of Paper to be Presented at Accio 2008

Diana Patterson

This paper discusses some of the seemingly needless ‘translations' between English and American and attempts to discover why the translations were deemed necessary. Audience discussion of Rowling's capitulation to American terms will be encouraged.
