Postgraduate Translation Symposium, University of East Anglia

The sixth Postgraduate Translation Symposium at the University of East Anglia aims to explore new perspectives and conceptualisations of untranslatability which go beyond traditional comparisons of target texts with their sources.

Fields of particular interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • translatability/untranslatability
  • stylistic loss and gain
  • ineffability in translation
  • world literature and untranslatability
  • philosophy in translation
  • historical and contemporary perspectives on untranslatability
  • translating between specific language pairs
  • practical aspects of untranslatability
  • linguistic and cultural consequences of the untranslatable

Please send proposals of no more than 250 words (along with bibliographical references and a short biographical note) for 20-minute papers to translationsymposium@uea.ac.uk by Tuesday 26 May 2015.
