According to the 2011 census, 119,526 people in Ireland speak Polish at home (of whom 5,541 are Irish citizens), making Polish the second most spoken language in Ireland from day to day. Nevertheless, while the rapid growth in the number of Poles living in Ireland is a feature of the past decade, there is a much longer history of the translation of Irish literature by Poles, of Polish literature by Irish people, and more generally of intercultural exchange between these two nations who share so much in terms of history and sociology.

Call for Papers (Open) for Special Issue: The Archive as a Translational Experience.The archive is a key notion and methodological tool in various fields of knowledge and practice, including the humanities and the arts. The relationship between archives and translation has given rise to several interdisciplinary studies focusing on various production networks and materialities. Archives house and activate languages and forms of narrative and discourse, and reveal and render cultural agents and practices. This involves the researchers’ own experiences with archive spaces, languages, and materials, and reveals the archive as a translational experience.For this issue on “The archive as a translational experience,” the journal welcomes papers on these and related themes, drawing from diverse geographical and disciplinary perspectives.Deadline for submission of synopses (1000 words) and bionotes (100 words): 01 April 2026.More information: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/encounters-in-translation-journal_call-for-papers-open-for-special-activity-7427424062223802368-q0aw?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAADAHFiwBi8jC4KbsaPPxHxBkCAx_UoukeoQ
