Redefining translation? Historical fluctuations, new practices, and epistemologies in
the making
The conference will be held from the 10th to the 13th of June 2024 in Montreal, Quebec.
To mark the 35th anniversary of the journal TTR, the conference “Redefining translation?
Historical fluctuations, new practices, and epistemologies in the making” will bring
together established and emerging scholars to address themes related to translation
(including interpretation), terminology, and writing. Translation, together with
terminology and professional writing, constitutes a complex set of practices, processes,
and epistemologies that, no matter what they are called, (e.g., translation, adaptation,
transfer, intertextuality, transformation), has always played a prominent role in civil
society while also being used as a tool of colonization and discrimination. Translation
thus raises crucial ethical issues that call for serious reflection.
