• 4th EST Congress

  26 - 29 September 2004
  Faculty of Letters, University of Lisbon

  With pre-congress workshops on 26 September 2004

  Announcement and Call for papers

  TRANSLATION STUDIES: DOUBTS AND DIRECTIONS

  Translation Studies has grown rapidly as an academic discipline and a field of knowledge. Its interdisciplinarity has been both a necessity and an asset. "There is an influx of researchers from adjacent areas, bringing with them the paradigms and models that have proved fruitful in their own fields. These are then brought to bear on the new problem, with one or two results. In some situations the problem proves amenable to explicitation, analysis, explication, and at least partial solution within the bounds of one of the paradigms or models, and in that case it is annexed as a legitimate branch of an established field of study. In other situations the paradigms or models fail to produce sufficient results, and researchers become aware that new methods are needed to approach the problem" (Holmes, 1972: "The name and nature of Translation Studies").
  Perhaps the time has come to challenge some of the widely held assumptions, biases, and other presuppositions borrowed from other disciplines or from beliefs and claims taken for granted. They may concern translators (who for instance are supposed to "read", even "analyze" the source text prior to "transferring" it), interpreters (who for instance are supposed to always (re)present the "I" of the speaker), or translations (supposed for instance to be always better into the mother tongue).
  The evolution of our field compels us to appraise and update our concepts and analytical tools. For instance, do we all refer to the same concepts of "text", "strategy", "context" … when dealing with literary books and multimedia documents? How can world cultures be more mutually intelligible while the dominant ideology still focuses on national borders? Do corpus-based research or cognitive approaches represent a change in our main paradigms? Are our translation models Eurocentric or open to non-European languages and cultures?
  The Congress will be a platform for critical debate and an opportunity for discussing current relevant problems and possible future developments in TS.

  SESSIONS AND PRE-CONGRESS WORKSHOPS

  The congress programme is scheduled to start on the morning of 27 September and end by lunch time on 29 September; it will include plenary sessions, panels, parallel sessions and posters.

• In So Many Words: Language Transfer On the Screen
  6-7 February 2004
  Senate House, Malet Street, London, WC1E 7HU

  This conference aims to bring together professionals, scholars, practitioners and other interested parties to explore (multi)media translation in theory and practice, to ascertain the language needs of film distributors and broadcasters, to discuss the linguistic and cultural dimensions of audiovisual translation, to look into the possibilities of co-operation between the business and the educational worlds and to investigate the relevance and application of translation theory to audiovisual translation. Special attention will be given to the notion of accessibility to information, of concern not only to interlingual but also to intralingual translation. Of great concern are the interests of the blind, deaf and hard-of-hearing communities and issues related to the social and economic implications of the implementation of appropriate high quality standards.

  Proposals for papers (20 minutes) should be sent in the form of abstracts of approximately 250 words. Please send as a word file by e-mail attachment by 22nd June 2003 to j.diaz-cintas@roehampton.ac.uk.
