Cultural Translation
11th December 2009, Cardiff University
Call for Papers
Etymologically, the word translation is linked, among other things, to “tradition” on the one hand and to “betrayal” on the other. ... And yet the word tradition itself, linked in its roots to translation and betrayal, has to do with handing over. Tradition itself is nothing if it is not a transmission. How is tradition to be transmitted, to be passed on, if not through translation? (Rey Chow)
The process of “cultural translation” is inevitably enmeshed in conditions of power – professional, national, international. ... Given that that is so, the interesting question for enquiry is ... how power enters into the process of “cultural translation” (Talal Asad)
For this free interdisciplinary conference, we invite proposals on problematics of:
Intercultural encounters
Translation between cultures
Postcolonialism and the politics of translation
Diaspora, migration, mobility and cultural practices
Ethnicity, language, representation and cultural identity
Theories and practices of cultural translation
Tradition, transmission, translation and problems of origins
Re-examining the assumptions of translation
Questions of technology, mediation and the voice
Ethical and political problems in academic methodologies
Proposals: 400-word proposals for 20-minute papers.
Deadline: 1st September 2009
Email: BowmanP@cf.ac.uk
NB: This conference is free. Places are strictly limited. Papers will be selected by committee.
Organisation: The conference is organised by:
The Cardiff Humanities Research Institute Project, ‘Representing Migration and Mobility in European Cultures’ (Cardiff School of European Studies);
The Race, Representation and Cultural Identity Research Group (Cardiff School of Journalism, Media and Cultural Studies).
