University of Oxford

The Oxford Comparative Criticism and Translation (OCCT) annual conference in collaboration with the European Humanities Research Centre (EHRC) St Anne’s College Oxford, 1-3 October 2015 Call for papers: Translation is prismatic when it produces multiple variants. This can happen in the process of a single translational act, or when a text is translated into different languages, or when it is translated into the same language several times. Our conference will explore all these aspects of the prism of translation in order to assess their origins, their effects and their potential.

Main Hall, Taylor Institution - St Giles', Oxford OX1 3NA September 25-26, 2014 Registration is open until Sunday 21st September, or until fully booked Conveners: Martin McLaughlin and Javier Muñoz-Basols (For enquiries please contact elisabetta.tarantino@mod-langs.ox.ac.uk) In recent decades we have witnessed an ever-increasing exposure to new cultures and languages. Ease of travel, migration flows and increased opportunities to interact with foreign media have resulted in an interweaving of cultural transmissions.
