Calls for papers

Automated translation services such as Google Translate have become widely available at no cost. Due to their ease of access and improving quality, they have become a tool that enables access to expression of ideas that may otherwise remain closed to readers who are not conversant in the language they are written in. Given the technology’s capacity, to some it may be a shortcut to circumvent language acquisition, while to others it may be a facilitator to learning. Either way, arguably, it provides access to knowledge that was previously harder to obtain. Perhaps one of the key questions is whether it is to be viewed as a facilitator or as a risk to learning and student development and as a tool that is to be welcomed or treated with suspicion by institutions. If it is a facilitator, then how can it be integrated as useful tool into the curriculum? If it is a risk, then how can it be controlled and legislated? These and many other questions remain, at present, unanswered, but they are in need of addressing. In that light, this event is of relevance to students, teachers, assessors, policy makers, and ethics/misconduct officers in secondary and tertiary education. We are accepting proposals for individual presentations, panels and workshops that address the role of automated translation technology in education. We aim to include a range of topics, possibly from, but not limited to the areas of automated translation technology and: language acquisition independent language learning academic literacies translator training interpreter training in the classroom assessed work the user/student perspective research activities ethical concerns For individual papers, each contribution will consist of a 20-minute presentation and a 10-minute Q&A session. Proposals should include: Title Abstract of up to 300 words Speaker bio of up to 50 words for each speaker Panels/workshops will be 90 minutes in length. Proposals should include: Title Abstract of up to 300 words Organisers: names and affiliations of moderator and participants (if known) Proposed format, including a draft schedule and summary of how the session would run/engage with the audience Participant information: expected number of and information about participants, if known Special requests or needs for equipment Please submit your proposals to: klaus.mundt@nottingham.ac.uk or yvonne.lee@nottingham.ac.uk  Submission deadline: 31 March 2019 Date of the event: 5 July 2019 Conference URL: www.nottingham.ac.uk/go/translationtechnology

News Discourse and Translation In contexts of globalization (or de-globalization), news discourse plays an indispensable role by disseminating meaning that is manufactured, constructed, or negotiated by news workers over the course of presentation or representation. With Industry 4.0 in place, featuring “smart things” on various fronts, the amount of data to be processed has increased exponentially. This new era characterized by highly interactive and customized news stories further enforces changes in the way news discourse to be perceived and consumed. Furthermore, translation has facilitated the instantaneity of news flow around the world by simultaneously addressing members of different linguistic and cultural communities through the Internet or mobile apps. It will undoubtedly serve to intensify or reduce or mediate the opposition and interaction between the global and the local. Against this backdrop, news dissemination manifested in news discourse calls for investigations from the academia from more perspectives with more interdisciplinary approaches. Call for papers We invite contributions from researchers working within any theoretical or methodological or practical perspectives who are interested in the intersection between news media, discourse, language, translation, culture and communication to this conference. You may have 20-minute oral presentations that report original research related to the following themes of the conference which may include, but are not limited to: Globalization or localization of news discourse News discourse and interactionLinguistic approaches to news language Discourse analysis of news storyNews discourse and context News discourse and intercultural communicationNews translation News translation and technology News translation and pedagogy Submission of Abstracts Anonymous abstracts not exceeding 300 words in length (excluding references) must be sent to NewsDiscourse.Translation@nottingham.edu.cn. Names and affiliation of the author(s) should be included in the accompanying email. Note: Selected works will be invited to submit the full paper for publication in an edited volume to be proposed to world leading publisher such as Routledge after the conference. Deadline for abstract submission: March 31 2019 Notification sent to applicants: April 15 2019 Registration for conference opens: April 2019 For more information, visit https://www.nottingham.edu.cn/en/english/research/news-discourse-and-translation.aspx?fbclid=IwAR0UeoAJS1pPC9aNjMY3iWTV67Q87GSi2RexmVBMeFDvin1GT1jdukMeVeo

Norms can be broadly defined as some kind of protection from change, a prescribed standard whose violation involves distortion and deformation, a transformation into something which the normal thing is not. Though derived from carpentry, the art of construction of rigid objects (norma is the Latin word for carpenter's square), normativity has become a measure of things more evanescent than furniture – of ethical, social, aesthetic or political judgements, of certain cultural norms which may seem to be universal only given that they survive the test of being transferred, or translated, to other cultures. If, as Yuri Lotman noted in his Universe of the Mind (1990), “the elementary act of thinking is translation” (143), then translation can be viewed as a crucial activity involved in the formation of cultures along with their concepts, conceptualizations and norms. However, since translation, as a kind of dialogue, is inevitably asymmetrical and assumes only “a degree invariancy” (143), this degree seems to be an effect of culture’s resilience to the inadequacy and change involved in any kind of translation. Paradoxically, it is the change, the rupturing of the norm in and through translation which is a constitutive element of normativity. This “rupturing of the norm,” wrote Lotman, “is what builds up the image of the truly essential but unrealized norm” (90). Thus normativity is both a matter of representation and something which may be called a feature of the world, the latter possibility figuring as an unrealizable effect of broadly understood translation which simultaneously protects and disrupts it. Looking at the ideas of norm and normativity in culture in the context of translation we would like to think about various locations of what may be called normative ‘ought’ statements, sometimes implicitly dictating our choices of words and ideas; the quiet demands of discourse to retain norms despite various perturbations. The ‘ought’ statements of normativity, of retaining the norm, seem to be an important aspect of management of resistance whose significant function is, as Judith Butler claims in Vulnerability in Resistance, concealment of destitution (8). The ‘ought’ of resilience has become not only the desired good of neoliberalism, but also, as she puts it, “a force to be reckoned within the realm of hegemonic ethics of and truths about the self” (53). One of the tasks of the conference is to attempt, at least provisionally, to locate the whereabouts of such ‘ought’ statements, the teachings of imaginary security and certainty consisting in the ability of jumping into prior shape. We invite papers and presentations approaching the issues of translation, normativity and resilience from possibly broadest theoretical and methodological perspectives such as Translation Studies, Linguistics, Literary Criticism, Critical Theory, Cultural Studies, Feminist and Gender Studies, Queer Theory, Philosophy, Sociology, History of Ideas, Colonial and Postcolonial Studies ..., realizing that a strictly single-disciplinary approach is nowadays hardly thinkable. We suggest the following, broad, thematic suggestions as a map showing a few orientation points of the conference: resilience as adaptationnorm and naturenormativity and originalitynormativity and creativitynormalcy and creativitynormative translationnormativity and ethicsnorm and its otherslanguage of the normnormativity and meaninglimits of normativitynormal / acceptedrules / norms / idiosyncrasyrules / norms / transgressionsadherence / infringement / violationresilience / conformityresilience / immunityresilience vs. resistancenormative modificationresilience and standardizationresilience and empowermentresilience and retaliationnorm as dominationresilience and changeprescriptive vs. normativenormality and monstrosityresilience and adaptabilityresilience and plasticityresilience as vulnerabilityuncertainty and normcontrol and resiliencetranslation and adaptationtranslation and changecultures in translationresilience as recoverynormativity, resilience, survival https://english.swps.pl/normativity-and-resilience

SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE(listed in alphabetic order) Jacob Blakesley - University of Leeds Jeremy Munday - University of Leeds Luis Pérez-González - University of Manchester Sara Ramos Pinto - University of Leeds Serge Sharoff - University of Leeds Binhua Wang - University of Leeds AIMS & SCOPE Following the legacy of the Centre for Translation Studies at the University of Leeds, this Third Biennial Leeds CTS Postgraduate Translation and Interpreting Conference aims to provide a platform for postgraduate scholars in Translation and Interpreting Studies (T&I) to present their research projects and exchange ideas with peers and senior colleagues. In line with our research culture at the University of Leeds, this conference aims to foster collaboration and communication between researchers from different disciplines and encourage theoretical and methodological exchanges. T&I has developed from poly-disciplinary origins into an inter-discipline, which is reflected in the conference central theme: “Across Time, Across the Globe: Interdisciplinary Approaches to Translation and Interpreting Studies”. It also features two dimensions, the time dimension extends from the early practical and theoretical approaches to present-day media and political discourses, and the geographic dimension traverses from Anglophone zones to other world language areas. In engaging the multitude objects of study with inter-disciplinary approaches, we aim to gain new insights into the study of products, processes, agents and social-cultural contexts of T&I, and also address some challenges faced by T&I investigations that share borders with various disciplines. Therefore, this conference will cover a range of current trends in T&I. ABOUT THE CONFERENCELeeds CTS Conference distinguishes itself in three ways. First, it is scheduled compactly in one day with two keynote speeches, a round-table discussion and several parallel sessions. Second, it brings together leading scholars who will engage in discussions and interact with students. Third, it offers free registration for participants. CONFERENCE THEMEAcross Time, Across the Globe: Interdisciplinary Approaches to Translation and Interpreting Studies.

LSP 2019 22nd Conference on Languages for Specific Purposes Padova, Italy, 10-12 July 2019 Mediating Specialized Knowledge: Challenges and Opportunities for LSP Communication and Research Whether within or across languages, communicating specialised knowledge involves a degree of mediation. At all levels – experts to experts, experts to students, experts to lay people – effective LSP communication is the result of joint efforts in achieving mutual understanding, as negotiating or co-constructing meaning with the audience requires engaging with different perspectives, no matter if the aim is to integrate, reconcile, debate or oppose them. While co-constructing knowledge presents challenges, it also provides opportunities, as it requires novel investigations and innovative research methodologies in LSP/professional discourse studies. Along with established patterns of mediation in LSP/professional contexts, growing use of digital media broadens the range of new genres and hybrid forms and influences discourse practices to make and maintain contact, to develop relationships and build networks in a multimodal environment. While research has made significant progress in many areas of LSP discourse, there is scope for further investigations and new methodologies to explore how scientists, professionals, journalists and all kinds of stakeholders deal with mediation of specialised knowledge at different levels to ensure effective communication in the age of digital media. Further inquiries concern whether and to what extent digital media affect communication in formal media. You can submit abstracts for presentations, colloquia, workshops and panels. Analytical approaches based on synchronic, diachronic and/or contrastive perspectives of intralinguistic, interlinguistic and intercultural mediation in LSP/professional discourse are all welcome. Areas for submission include but are not limited to: • Domain-specific language use (in fields such as science and technology, business and economics, law, medicine, etc.) • Specialised translation and interpreting • Professional communication • Theoretical and methodological issues of LSP research • LSP teaching and training • Terminology in theory and practice • Corpus-studies for LSP practice and research • Multilingualism, language policies, and socio-cultural issues of LSPs • Science communication • Language for specific purposes in specific languages, countries or regions of the world Abstracts can be submitted in English, French, German, Italian, Russian and Spanish, but for their presentations all speakers will be kindly required to provide slides in English. Submissions Submissions should be sent to the Organising committee at lsp2019unipd@gmail.com by 31 January 2018. In the object line of the message, please enter “ABSTRACT SUBMISSION” followed by the type of abstract – presentation, colloquium, workshop or panel. • The required format for submissions is an abstract of 300-500 words (excluding references), possibly in Word format. • Please do not include any self-identifying information on the abstract; indicate only the title and the abstract itself. On a separate cover sheet, please specify: • Title: • Author(s): • Affiliation(s): • Postal mailing address (for primary author): • E-mail (for primary author): • Telephone (for primary author): website: http://www.maldura.unipd.it/LSP2019/

‘We nooses tous des bastardi elettronici che usano lingue globali’ Ours Lingages. The internet is my language mother. I speak with a voice that’s not my own, I speak in other voices, not my voice. We are all e-strangers, all nomads that use globish bastard languages. We are the alienated translated (wo)men in-between code and emotion, in-between our wish to be visible and our longing for intimacy. L’entre-deux = void. Can’t we be ‘with’ instead? (Annie Abrahams) Digital artist and performer Annie Abrahams highlights how living in the digital world transforms not only the language(s) we speak, but also our relationship to language(s) and the relationship between languages, together with our relationships to other people. ‘Networked language practices [...] are simultaneously local and transnational’, observes at the same time Jannis Androutsopoulos (2015). The digital space makes it easier for human languages to circulate, coexist, interact, and mix in a fluid and flexible fashion - linguistic borders are not removed, but they have shifted and become more porous. Language is never alone. Of necessity, digital texts are composed in at least two ‘languages’ and exist by means of perpetual back-and-forth processes of translation between them: a ‘so-called natural language, which is addressed to humans [...]; and computer codes, which (although readable by some humans) can be executed only by intelligent machines’ (Hayles 2006). Hayles goes on to argue that ‘in our computationally intensive culture, code is the unconscious of language’. How can we be ‘with’ languages in their plurality, rather than just in-between them and lost in translation? Digital arts and literature have explored the potential of programmable media to play with and perform linguistic complexity and fluidity both across human languages and between human and machine languages. Everyday users are no less inventive and adventurous in their practices, as they acquire linguistic fragments from the flux, integrate them into their interactions, and create their own hybrid modes of expression. Following up on our first symposium in March 2018, Multilingual Digital Authorship, this conference will focus on projects, works, and any form of creative digital artefacts online or offline, including anything from individual tweets, instapoems, and status updates to interactions and more complex projects, artworks that consciously experiment with linguistic cross-fertilization ­– or on the contrary, highlight the dangers of linguistic standardization seeking to supress hybridity. The objective is to explore the creative, cultural, and political potential of encounters amongst digital technologies, languages, and creative practices. Confirmed invited speakers and artists: Annie Abrahams Jean-Pierre Balpe John Cayley Ottar Ormstad Alexandra Saemmer Rui Torres   The conference will include an evening of performances open to the general public and will be accompanied by a thematic issue of ZeTMaG. A selection of the conference papers will be published in a journal special issue. Three types of proposals are therefore invited: (Please indicate in brackets in the title if the proposal is for a Paper, a Panel, or a Performance) 1. 20-minute individual conference papers or panels including three or four papers in English. Topics may include, but need not be limited to: The coexistence or mixing of (human and/or computer) languages in digital interactions, artworks, and/or creative projectsHybrid or multiple linguistic and cultural identities in and through creative digital practicesCreative web-based communities across languages and their outputsThe shifting and melting of linguistic borders in digital space, in particular as illustrated by cultural artefactsMachine translation and its creative usesLinks between digital media, creativity, language(s), and power, including linguistic standardization and its subversion Fictional and artificial languages in and/or through digital media, including non-alphabetic ones (emoticon, emojicode, etc.) and their creative usesWhat is language anyway? What makes a language? What distinguishes languages? What kinds of 'languages' can we 'speak' in the digital space? When does a language begin to be more than one?   Submission format: Individual papers: please submit a 200-word proposal, with author affiliation and a 100-word bio-bibliography Panels: please submit a 100-words summary on the overarching objective of the panel, together with a 150-word abstract for each paper, with author affiliation and a 100-word bio-bibliography for each author Please submit your proposal on EasyChair by Friday the 27th of January 2019. 2. Performances with a digital component, of 10-20 minutes in length, related to any of the above, to be presented in an event to take place on the first evening of the conference, open to the general public. Please submit a 200-word description of the work and the equipment and space required, together with a 100-word biography of the artist(s) (if available, include link to website/previous work). Please submit your proposal on EasyChair by Friday the 27th of January 2019. 3. Digital artworks to be published in a thematic issue in the experimental digital art magazine ZeTMaG onLanguage(s)-Space(s), to be launched at the conference. The magazine can accept text, photo, audio, audiovisual formats. (Other formats might be possible, please contact the editors at zetmaglab@gmail.com with any queries.) Please send a brief description of the proposed work directly to zetmaglab@gmail.com. The submission of final works will be required by 31st May 2019. This conference will be the second and last academic event of a two-year project funded by the ‘Multilingualism: Empowering Individuals, Transforming Societies’ AHRC Open World Research Initiative (www.meits.org) and is part of a series of a series of four conferences on Digital Authorship run in partnership with the University of Paris 8. The event benefits from additional support from the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences and partnership with the Electronic Literature Organization (https://eliterature.org/).
