About Emily

Dr Emily Rokobauer holds a Doctor of Philosophy from the University of Newcastle, awarded in 2024. Her dissertation, titled 'Japanese to English Literary Translation: A Qualitative Approach Using the Systems Model of Creativity,' supervised by Professor Phillip McIntyre and Dr Marie-Laure Vauille-Barcan from the School of Humanities, Creative Industries and Social Sciences, marks a pioneering effort. This study is the first to apply Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi's systems model of creativity—encompassing interactions between the individual translator, the domain of literary translation knowledge, and the field of social influences—to Japanese-to-English literary translation. The qualitative research explores the creative processes inherent in translating Japanese literature into English.
