“跨学科视域下翻译与传播模式研究”国际研讨会

（一号通知）

 

北京外国语大学主办

北京外国语大学高级翻译学院承办

2020年4月10-12日

 

进入21世纪，有关媒介传播方式的研究在数量、种类和深度方面进展显著，从语际翻译到电影改编，从表情符号语言到社交媒体交流中的语码转换，从新闻编译到协作起草国际组织和泛国家组织多语言文件，均是如此。图像、肢体语言、文本及其他传播媒介之间的互动管理对我们能否理解世界至关重要，也影响着我们对语言、翻译和传播等概念的理论研究。当今世界，文化语言日益多元，社会各阶层的沟通往往由中介人士来协调，对他们的称呼也不一而足：笔译员、口译员、字幕翻译者、语言顾问，甚至是“问题解决者”，而后者也已然成为一个术语，指代口译员以及其他帮助记者在国外执行包括语言媒介在内的一系列任务的人员。如今，翻译已无处不在，形式多样，翻译与其他类型语言媒介之间的界限亦愈加模糊，这对翻译学和传播学等多个学科都产生了重要影响。

 

与此同时，翻译现象以及翻译与社会政治生活如何相互影响也已成为诸多学科乃至学界之外讨论的焦点；而翻译学作为一门交叉学科，通过探索与其他研究领域产生联系和协同效应也得以蓬勃发展。进入21世纪以来，翻译学研究范围及其影响日益拓展，对翻译的思考也不再局限于“母学科”本身。翻译已然成为当代人文社科研究的一个热点话题，吸引了包括科学史、宗教研究、批判法学、女性主义研究和视觉文化等领域的学者参与其中。

 

我们将邀请国内外在翻译与传播研究领域的知名学者担任主旨发言，并组织数个分论坛。

New and Familiar Modes of Translation and Communication: Interdisciplinary Perspectives

Graduate School of Translation and Interpretation, Beijing Foreign Studies University

10-12 April 2020

 

The turn of the century has witnessed a step change in the volume, diversity and sophistication of research on various modes of mediated communication, from interlingual translation and interpreting to film adaptation, from the language of emojiis to the code switching typical of social media exchanges, and from the transediting of news to the collaborative drafting of multilingual documents in international and pan national organizations. Managing the interaction between image, body language, text and other media of communication has also become central to our ability to make sense of the world, with implications for the way we theorize concepts such as language, translation and communication. In our increasingly multicultural and multilingual world, communication at all levels of society is routinely mediated by individuals who are variously referred to as translators, interpreters, subtitlers, language consultants, and even ‘fixers’—the term now used to refer to interpreters and others who assist journalists operating in foreign countries to perform a range of duties that are not restricted to linguistic mediation. The prevalence and pervasiveness of translation, in all its guises, together with the increased blurring of boundaries between translation and other types of linguistic mediation, both have important consequences for a variety of disciplines, including translation and communication studies.

 

At the same time, the phenomenon of translation and the many ways in which it is impacted by and in turn impacts social and political life have become central to debates across a wide range of disciplines, as well as outside academia. Translation studies itself is now understood as an interdiscipline that thrives on exploring connections and synergies with other fields of enquiry. Despite its growing engagement with other fields and a significant broadening of its remit since the turn of the century, however, reflection on translation is no longer confined to this ‘parent discipline’ but continues to gather pace across the academy and beyond. Translation has become a leitmotif of contemporary scholarship in the humanities and social sciences in particular. It has engaged scholars in areas as varied as the history of science, religious studies, critical legal studies, feminist studies and visual culture.

 

We invite original research contributions related but not limited to the following sub-themes: 

 

• Researching communication in the digital era: interdisciplinary perspectives on translation and interpreting in the Web 2.0 environment

• Researching multilingual communities in physical and virtual spaces: language and identity formation in evolving settings

• Multimodal analyses of visual-cum-textual communication in new sites of interaction

• Language and translation policies: traditional and unconventional/novel schemes

• Multidisciplinary approaches to the mediation and circulation of the news

• Cognitive approaches to the analysis of mediated communication, including translation and interpreting events

We invite both individual presentations and panel proposals.
