Bearing in mind this diversity of situations, we would like to discuss the specificity of children’s literature in the particular field of Translation Studies and analyze through examples borrowing from various periods, cultural traditions and authors the reasons why a given book is chosen to be translated again (and again and again, for some of them). Papers may choose to tackle one or several of the following issues: - Focusing on the text itself, one may think of looking into the aesthetic dimension of the source text so as to raise questions pertaining to its narrative organization, stylistic features and literary creativity. What elements, whether in the original work or in its first translation, make it necessary to retranslate the said original work? - Beyond the space of the text itself, one may decide to examine the cultural background of the country where the retranslation is undertaken, as well as publishers’ policies and strategies in building up their lists of publications. - Comparisons between languages, countries and publishing houses (about a similar work or about different authors) may also provide answers specific (or not) to the cultural history of the countries and publishers discussed. - The institutionalization of “children’s literature” may also be an angle to engage with the way retranslation feeds on this increasing financial and academic authority. - More pointedly even, one may wonder what part the growing importance of Children’s Literature Translation Studies within the field of Children’s Literature Studies plays in such translating-retranslating dynamics in this literary scene. - Conversely, it would also be relevant to see whether and why some texts have resisted or still resist the retranslation urge while others have been regularly reappraised through constant linguistic reappropriations. Proposed papers, in French or in English (150-300 words), as well as a short biographical notice, should be sent before 3rd September 2012 to the two e-mail addresses below: Virginie Douglas: virginie.douglas@wanadoo.fr Florence Cabaret: florence.cabaret@univ-rouen.fr Responsable : Organisé par l'ERIAC (Université de Rouen), avec le soutien de l'Institut International Charles Perrault, Eaubonne Url de référence : http://www.institutperrault.org/pole-ressources/la-recherche-liicp/colloques-et-journees-detudes Adresse : Université de Rouen76821 Mont-Saint-Aignan Full announcement at: http://www.fabula.org/actualites/la-retraduction-en-litterature-de-jeunesse-retranslating-children-39-s-literature_51027.php

12th Portsmouth Translation Conference SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS ‘Those Who Can, Teach’: Translation, Interpreting and Training Date: Saturday 10 November 2012 (*please note revised date*) Place: Park Building, University of Portsmouth Keynote speakers: Dr. Dorothy Kelly (University of Granada) Daniel Toudic (University Rennes II) These are challenging times for translator and interpreter training. The past 40 years have seen big changes in translator training with a shift towards greater professionalization, an explosion in the number of courses, and also a shift towards lifelong learning and continuing professional development. Translator training has also moved, in part, out of the seminar room into the virtual teaching environment. The industry and student professional needs are also changing very fast. The organisers of the twelfth annual Portsmouth Translation Conference invite contributions from translation and interpreting professionals and scholars on practice and research in translator and interpreter training. Fields of interest might include, but are by no means limited to: · Best practice for practical translation workshops · Translator training and cognition · Translators, interpreters and CPD · Translator and interpreting training online (distance learning) · Training the trainer · The role of professional organisations · The role of professionals · Relevance of translation theory in and outside the classroom · Educational theories · Employability · Clients need educating too! We welcome a broad range of approaches to translation and interpreting, including presentations with an empirical, critical, analytic, pedagogical, technological or professional focus. Proposals for practical 60-minute workshops are very welcome. Abstracts of 300 words should be sent to both begona.rodriguez@port.ac.uk and caterina.jeffcote@port.ac.uk by 30 June 2012. Enquiries to translation@port.ac.uk or see www.port.ac.uk/translationconference. A publication of proceedings is expected to follow from the conference.
Conditions of Application and Procedure The International Winter School is open to postdoctoral researchers (within 7 years of completion) and advanced doctoral students from the field of language studies, history and cultural studies, whose philological work promotes an inter-Asian perspective. Particular preference will be given to applicants whose proposals exemplify a conscious dovetailing of comparativist methodology and historiographical ref lection. Before submitting an application, interested applicants are strongly advised to visit the Zukunftsphilologie website (www.zukunftsphilologie.de) for a description of the project and a list of previous events, including a report of the Cairo Winter School. Participants receive a stipend covering travel and accommodation. They will be expected to give at least one presentation of their research, actively participate in discussion groups and seminars, and assist in chairing sessions. In order to create common intellectual ground and to ensure fruitful conversations, participants will receive a collection of preparatory essential readings in the form of an online reader, which they will be required to read carefully prior to their arrival in Delhi. These readings will be discussed extensively during the Winter School. Unlike similar events where the burden is on a team of tutors, the ultimate success of the Delhi Winter School however depends to a great extent on the engagement and contribution of all its participating members. The researchers' work should be clearly relevant to the themes of the Winter School. The working language is English. The application should be sent by e-mail as one pdf file or in one word document. The application should be submitted in English and should be received by May 20, 2012 addressed to zukunftsphilologie@trafo-berlin.de The application should consist of: — A research expose of no more than 5 pages, which includes an outline of your project, and states clearly why you think this Winter School is pertinent to your research, with a brief summary thereof (max. 200 words). — ‘relevant readings’, Please provide citation of one or two academic articles or works you find relevant to the overall themes and objectives of the winter school and would propose discussing at the Winter School. — Curriculum vitae plus a short biography (max. 150 words). — The names of two university faculty members who can serve as referees (no letters of recommendation required) — While we do not require official proof of English f luency, applicants whose native tongue is not English will be expected to have a strong command of the language

This conference will provide an opportunity for professional translators, representatives of translation institutions and translation studies scholars to discuss professional experience and present research findings on the specifics of translation and interpretation in officially multilingual contexts, and the “translation effects” (Simon 1996) generated. Many of the world’s countries are in fact officially multilingual: Afghanistan (Pashto and Dari), Belgium (Dutch, French and German), Cameroon and Canada (English and French), Finland (Finnish and Swedish), India (23 official languages), Ireland (Irish and English), Israel (Hebrew and Arabic), Norway (two varieties of Norwegian), Pakistan (Urdu and English), Philippines (Filipino and English), South Africa (11 official languages) and Switzerland (French, German, Italian), among other countries, as well as many international organizations (e.g. United Nations, European Commission, Amnesty International). The papers on the conference programme explore an aspect of the interaction between translation and official multilingualism, such as the institutionalization of translation, in the countries and organizations mentioned above, as well as in others not included in the list. Papers read will encourage conference delegates to reflect on the following questions: Do official multilingualism and translation operate and interact in the same or similar ways in these countries and international organizations? Does the humanist ideal of translation serve to create a common culture in contexts of official multilingualism (Simon 1996) or does it rather serve to divide the constituent cultures through the incompleteness of translation potential resulting in missed encounters between the socio-linguistic groups that are represented in officially multilingual contexts? What experiences and practices are shared by these different contexts and which ones differ? What could or should we learn from experiences and practices that differ from our own? These are just some of the questions that will be discussed during the conference. For further details, please visit the conference website: http://www.umoncton.ca/umcm-fass-traduction/node/47
As well as papers presented by participants, there will be a plenary lecture given by Gregory M. Shreve. The symposium will take place on the 29th of June, 2012 at the Department of Translation and Interpreting of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Papers are welcomed on topics relating to the research interests of the Department of Translation and Interpreting.
