Cecelia Ramsey

French and Italian

Cecelia Ramsey is a third-year PhD student in the Department of French and Italian. Prior to Princeton, she earned a master’s degree from NYU in literary translation from French to English. Her master’s thesis involved a translation of Minh Tran Huy’s Voyageur malgré lui (2014), a poetic work of fiction that weaves historical anecdotes into a semi-autobiographical narrative, crossing borders in both time and space. As a translator and copyeditor, she also spent time working with an international literary agency and editing DeepL translations for a French newspaper.
