EXPLORING THE TEMPORAL DIMENSION OF CROSS-CULTURAL TRANSFER Department of Translation, The Chinese University of Hong Kong CALL FOR PAPERS / PANELS

Except for some isolated references (Cronin 2003; Baker 2006; Bassnett 2013), there has been no sustained engagement with the issue, let alone an attempt to do what Paul Ricoeur has done for narrative theory in his Temps et récit (1983).
