Conference
Date: 2006-12-04
Venue: University of San Marcos, Lima, Peru.
With the cooperation of The University of Murcia, The University of Urbino, University of Rome La Sapienza, The Nida Institute for Biblical Scholarship at the American Bible Society, the United Bible Societies, the Summer Institute of Linguistics, The Center for Translation, Culture and Communication (CETRA), the Society of Biblical Literature, and many other organizations and friends and organized by Stefano Arduini, Jose Mara Jimenez Cano, Robert Hodgson
Event theme(s): The theme of the Lima Conference, Translation, Identity and Heterogeneity, takes on a special urgency today because communication, language, and translation have found new frames of reference in a post-modern world characterized by globalization, immigration, and localization. The Lima Conference will explore many aspects of this theme, including translation and minority languages, translation and the emergence of new languages (creoles, pidgens, street-languages), translation and boundaries, translation and inner cultural space, translation and cultural mediation, translation and the politics of language, to mention just some of the more obvious topics.
