First Call for Papers:

The editorial committee of Hermēneus journal, together with the renowned research group TRADHUC (Humanities and Cultural Translation), in the Faculty of Translation and Interpreting, University of Valladolid (Soria Campus), will organise its Second Hermēneus
Colloquium of Translation and Interpreting. This colloquium proposes reflections on Translation and Humanities, taking into consideration traditional approaches, bearing witness to innovation and without excluding the revolutionary translation processes in which we are already engaged.

Proposals will be evaluated based on their originality, methodology and, particularly the presentation of a new or revolutionary aspect of the thousand-year tradition of translation in the area of Humanities. All aspects of translation and interpreting applied to the study of translation in the Humanities will be welcome, specifically, historical, literary, didactic, professional, sociological, technological, documental, audiovisual approaches, etc.

The following are potential areas of interest, though proposals that fall outside these areas may also be considered:

  • Digital Humanities and translation
  • Recovery and dissemination of translations in the Humanities
  • Adaptation and transcreation of texts in the Humanities
  • Intersemiotic translation in the Humanities
  • Databases, corpora and resources for translation in the Humanities
  • Technology and translation in the Humanities
  • Innovation in teaching translation in the Humanities
  • New methodologies in translation in the Humanities
  • Professional aspects of translation in the Humanities
  • The editing world and translation in the Humanities
  • Audio-visual Humanities and translation

Proposals are invited for presentations and posters by 30 September 2019. Proposals should include the following: a title, a 350-word abstract in the language in which the presentation will be given, five key words and institutional/professional affiliation, along with full contact details.

Applicants will be informed of the outcome of the selection process by 31 October 2019. Submissions are welcome in three languages: Spanish, French and English.

Proposals can be submitted to the following email address: coloquio.hermeneus.trad@uva.es.

Publication:
