2025 ACLA_virtual meeting_CFP: World literature as a mode of doing and experiencing

updated: 
Saturday, September 14, 2024 - 1:51am
2025 American Comparative Literature Association Annual Meeting (online conference)
deadline for submissions: 
Monday, October 14, 2024

David Damrosch (2003) describes world literature as “a mode of circulation and of reading” (5) and “writing that gains in translation” (281). This perspective has long dominated the discourse on world literature and has been widely expanded upon by scholars. Building on this foundation, Tong King Lee (2024) proposes that in today’s globalized context, circulating literature necessitates not only a mode of reading but also a mode of doing. In this view, a literary work becomes a Barthian Text—an interconnected network of “texts” that manifest in various forms (multilingual, multimodal, or multimedial), shaped by users rather than just readers.

Leeds IMC 2025 Call for Papers (Hybrid) - Learning, Knowledge and Awareness

updated: 
Thursday, September 12, 2024 - 10:58am
CERÆ: AN AUSTRALASIAN JOURNAL OF MEDIEVAL AND EARLY MODERN STUDIES
deadline for submissions: 
Friday, September 27, 2024

In an ideal situation, learning leads to knowledge and knowledge raises awareness. Set within the context of the past, this simple statement leads us to consider a range of different questions. How did medieval and early modern people learn and what did they learn? How did they teach and what did they teach? Who was taught and who was not? Who decided what was to be taught? Such questions, among others, help us understand the process of how learning and knowledge was acquired in the premodern world. But it also helps us better appreciate what we know about the premodern world and what people were trying to achieve when they set out to gain knowledge about their world and the society they lived in.

Universidad Externado de Colombia is the proud host of this opportunity to bring together expertise from more than two continents, to share experiences and research regarding minority/minoritized languages. The ample linguistic diversity of the American/Abya Yala continent provides challenges, but also great examples of intercultural dialogue and multilingual cohabitation. ICML will be a great opportunity for knowledges to be exchanged, academic and practitioner experiences shared, and dialogues fostered.

Translation Studies, NeMLA, March 6-9, 2025

updated: 
Tuesday, September 10, 2024 - 11:19am
NeMLA
deadline for submissions: 
Monday, September 30, 2024

Contemporary translation theory reflects the breakdown in the traditional dichotomy “author” versus “translator,” since it views the translator no longer as a subordinate figure to the author, but as an equal co-creator of the literary work, who rewrites the original text in another language and thus actively participates in the creative process. How does attention to this changing relationship between the author and the translator help with understanding of the creation and interpretation of meaning and the subsequent longevity of the translated work in a new environment?
