Dear colleagues,

The success we had in 2021 with our techling2021- UVigo_T&P congress, held online, has encouraged us to keep working. 

Indeed, we are proud to announce the la I edition of the ParatradIT-2024_UVigo_T&P. International Congress of Paratranslation Interlinguas and Transmedia, organized by the Translation & Paratranslation Research Group (T&P) from the Universidade de Vigo, together with the Universidad de Córdoba.

The Congress will take place both on-site and remotely, between March 20th–22nd, 2024. There are five Congress languages: Spanish, Galician, French, English, and Portuguese.

The Humanities Review Spring 2024 Issue, “Global Metamorphosis,” seeks to explore how the world around us, socially, politically, academically, literarily, etc., has transformed or is transforming. We look forward to scholarly papers, short sections of dissertation or thesis chapters, book reviews, narratives, fiction, poetry, art, etc., that engage the issue’s broad theme of global metamorphosis. Why “Global Metamorphosis”?

Postcolonial studies as a way of reclaiming history from the perspective of the colonised continues to uncover the myriad fraught legacies of colonialism. The emergence of newer interdisciplinary areas of inquiry, such as climate change, has further revealed tangled legacies of colonialism that continue to persist. The burgeoning field of postcolonial print culture studies, in turn, has been bringing to the fore a fascinating terrain of production, circulation and consumption of print in colonial contexts that is particularly enriching our knowledge of anticolonial resistance in various ways.  This conference aims to bring together academic work in some of the newer sub-fields of postcolonial inquiry with attention to continuities.

TRANSFORMATIONS 

JOIN CEA IN ATLANTA!

The Big Peach. The ATL. The Dogwood City. Atlanta is a city always reimagining itself. The city’s history parallels America's own complicated and continuing story. This spirit of TRANSFORMATION—the theme of CEA 2024—is captured in the city's seal featuring a phoenix rising from the ashes. The image captures Atlanta's resilience as a city in how it emerged from the devastation of the Civil War to become a modern industrial metropolis, the center of the movement for Civil Rights, and what the New York Times describes as “hip-hop’s center of gravity.”
