translation – Call for Papers Special issue: Translating memory across cultures and disciplines Guest editors: Bella Brodzki (Sarah Lawrence College, NY) and Cristina Demaria (University of Bologna, Italy) Translation is inscribed “within a scene of inheritance” (Derrida). translation devotes a special issue to the two concepts—translation and memory. They are interrelated: (1) memory—as the retrieval, reconstruction, inscription, and leaving of traces and their effects—plays a central role in any translation process, and (2) translation --the transformative character of translation is inherent in every memory and memorializing act. Remembering draws its (belated) versions of the past from different presents, serving multiple and often competing purposes. These include the imagined and projected versions of what is to come. Recent work in Translation and Memory Studies has seldom explored such articulations, especially regarding their mutually illuminating critical and political implications. This special issue will establish a dialogue with and among scholars working on the intersections between translation studies and memory studies as they are presently configured and might be envisioned in the future. We invite contributions on the ways: - translations are (re)constructions of either subjective or collective memories - translations give new life to texts, identities, cultures, and past experience - cultures shape collective memories through complex translation processes What kinds of texts, practices, and discourses result from the selection and the reassembling of past events into a memory mediator? To give voice to memory, one calls on other languages, modes, and forms. The filter through which those languages pass and are mediated are translative. Contributions could include, but are not limited to, the following areas: cultural and individual memory; historical catastrophe and inter-semiotic trauma narratives (graphic, visual, etc); memory as a multidirectional, transcultural and transnational force; memory, transitional justice and reconciliation; monuments and memorialization across cultures; translation and memory in sacred texts; migration and multilingualism: the migrant’s translation of memory; ethnopsychiatry; asymmetric or contested memories; memory and representation genres of testimony (autobiography, novels, graphic novel, cinema, documentary, performance, visual arts and installations); silenced and suppressed memories; memory as a source of transcultural ethics; neuro/cognitive studies of translation and cross-cultural language/memory loss; technology and memory; digital mediations of memory; archival memory. Due Dates Abstracts (ca 300 words) or drafts can be sent to Cristina Demaria, atcristina.demaria2@unibo.it Deadline for submission of abstracts is April 30, 2013. Deadline for the submission of the completed articles is September 30, 2013. Additional information contact Cristina Demaria at cristina.demaria2@unibo.it The journal translation is a new international peer-reviewed journal published twice a year. The journal—a collaborative initiative of the Nida School of Translation Studies and leading translation studies scholars from around the world—takes as its main mission is the collection and representation of the ways translation is a fundamental element of cultures’ transformation in the contemporary world. Our ambition is to create a new forum for the discussion of translation, translation offers an open space for debate and reflection on post-translation studies. translation moves beyond disciplinary boundaries towards transdisciplinary discourses on the translational nature of societies, which are increasingly hybrid, diasporic, border-crossing, intercultural, multilingual, and global. Translation studies is enjoying unprecedented success: translation has become a fecund and frequent metaphor for our contemporary intercultural world, and scholars from many disciplines—including linguistics, comparative literature, cultural studies, anthropology, psychology, communication and social behaviour, and global studies—have begun investigating translational phenomena. The journal starts from the assumptions that translational processes are fundamental to the creation of individual and social histories and to the formation of subjective and collective identities—that is, to the dynamic transmission and preservation of culture(s). From here the journal invites reflection and exchange on translation’s role in memory-making through the representing, performing, and recounting of personal and collective experiences of linguistic and cultural, psychic and physical displacement, transfer, and loss.

APPEL À CONTRIBUTION
Information publiée le vendredi 21 septembre 2012 par Perrine Coudurier (source : Núria d'Asprer) Date limite : 30 octobre 2012 REVUE DOLETIANA Nº 4
Le quatrième numéro de la revue Doletiana sera consacré au thème « Philosophie et traduction ». Dans ce numéro, nous voulons réfléchir sur l’importance du rapport entre l’une et l’autre discipline, à la lumière des différentes formes que ce rapport peut adopter.
D’une part, nous visons des textes qui abordent « la philosophie de la traduction », c’est-à-dire les problématiques conceptuelles que le passage interlinguistique a suscitées tout au long de l’histoire de la philosophie (de F. Schleiermacher à Antoine Berman, en passant bien évidemment par W. Benjamin et P. Ricoeur), ainsi que les limites rationnelles ou irrationnelles que toute traduction peut, a priori ou a posteriori, rencontrer. Ce premier volet embrassera des réflexions traductologiques étroitement liées à des questions philosophiques ou à des auteurs qui ont élaboré une pensée de la traduction. D’autre part, nous proposons aussi de se pencher sur des analyses précises des traductions de textes philosophiques (quelles que soient la langue de départ et la langue d’arrivée).
Language as a fundamental right: How do the African languages benefit from this right?
Stanley Madonsela Abstract Fifteen years have passed since the South African Constitution first declared that there would be 11 official languages in South Africa. This declaration was intended to enhance the promotion and development of the historically marginalised ethnic languages of South Africa, redressing apartheid policies where all ethnic languages were suppressed and undermined by the highest authority. The new constitution brought millions of Africans hope that their identity would at last be acknowledged through the official recognition of their languages. The aim of this article is to investigate the role of the constitutional imperatives and other legal resources in addressing the issue of language, especially African languages, as a fundamental right.

Las revistas especializadas en traducción son una herramienta muy útil para estar al día y también para formarse, por eso quiero hacer un breve repaso de las principales que consulto en línea y de forma gratuita, por si a alguien le resultan interesantes. En estos momentos de crisis en los que el trabajo a menudo llega por sacudidas, a veces nos encontramos ante un día entero o más sin nada que traducir. Esos días, además de dedicarlos a buscar nuevos clientes, mandar currículos y ordenar la mesa, podemos utilizarlos también para otras cosas, por ejemplo a hacer un poco de ejercicio, ¡y también a leer! Entre las lecturas, ¿qué tal algún artículo sobre traducción, de esos que a veces leemos a toda prisa mientras se cuecen los frijoles? A continuación haré un breve resumen de algunas de las más importantes que yo conozco. Si alguien conoce otras y quiere colaborar, le agradeceré que escriba un comentario para que pueda añadirla.
Cross-Cultural Discourse Analysis and Intercultural Education in Foreign Language Teaching and Learning
How may culture be defined? Numerous works and important contributions have been answering this crucial question for the past thirty years; yet the problem remains unsolved. When taking a close look at ‘intercultural communication’, we may see that some utterances might not be that cultural at all. If we have a clear definition of ‘intercultural communication’, then what is ‘intra-cultural communication’ (Winch 1997, Ma 2004)? Is there really a sharp difference between these two concepts and is miscommunication necessarily ‘cultural’ when implying individuals or groups from alleged different cultural backgrounds? We will study various examples and try to separate the cultural from the non-cultural by taking a close look at intercultural and intra-cultural miscommunication, insofar as their definitions seem to ultimately cover the same conceptual maps. After this first step, we will deconstruct the concept of culture, as it has been defined by scholars in various research fields over the last decades; we will thus see that culture might not be a set of shared values or behaviours (Knapp & Knapp-Pothoff 1990; Scollon & Wong Scollon 2001): culture may only be a very personal variable of a complex, strangely organized and experimental toolbox (Kay 1999) which would constitute a product of our education, psychology, social encounters and language and would only remain activated through particular contexts. This exploration will eventually be followed by a proposal for a redefinition of ‘culture’ as a concept, based on interactional pragmatics, contextics (Castella 2005) and a triadic declension of this very concept with three notions: bathyculture, dramaculture and osmoculture.

International Journal of Research in Linguistics and Lexicography (ISSN: 2226-4973)...
Aims and Scope Intercultural Pragmatics is a fully peer-reviewed forum for theoretical and applied pragmatics research. The goal of the journal is to promote the development and understanding of pragmatic theory and intercultural competence by publishing research that focuses on general theoretical issues, more than one language and culture, or varieties of one language. Intercultural Pragmatics encourages ‘interculturality’ both within the discipline and in pragmatic research. It supports interaction and scholarly debate between researchers representing different subfields of pragmatics including the linguistic, cognitive, social, and interlanguage paradigms. In addition to the paper section, our "Forum" includes interviews, debates, rebuttals, and research statements from leading theoreticians and researchers. The intercultural perspective is relevant not only to each line of research within pragmatics but also extends to several other disciplines such as anthropology, theoretical and applied linguistics, psychology, communication, sociolinguistics, second language acquisition, and bi- and multilingualism. The journal makes a special effort to cross disciplinary boundaries. It intends to be a forum for researchers who are looking for new tools and methods to investigate human languages and communication to better understand the role of pragmatic competence in language acquisition and the process of communication. The editors, editorial board members, and the publisher are committed to producing a journal that is provocative and open to new ideas. We are especially interested in featuring articles and research papers that address major issues of pragmatics research such as communicative principles, explicatures, implicatures, role of context, semantics-pragmatics interface, and so forth,
explore the implications of pragmatics research for theoretical developments and practical applications in the fields of language acquisition and intercultural communication,
analyze the ways in which language is both shaped by culture and is the medium through which culture is created,
focus on the use of varieties of one language, including the investigation of lingua franca from a pragmatic perspective,
discuss language use and gender differences in the context of cross-cultural interaction,
describe the meaning and implications of interculturality and analyze the reasons for cross-cultural misunderstandings,
study the nature of interaction between native speakers and non-native speakers and bi- and multilinguals,
investigate the effect of dual language and multilingual systems on the development and use of pragmatic skills,
examine the teachability and learnability of pragmatic skills in instructional environments.
