November 2011

   3-4  November - Paratextual Voices in Translation
                     University of Copenhagen, Dinamarca

Voice in Translation is an international research group which explores concept(s) of voice in Translation Studies, and employs it in empirical research on translations. Translations are constellations of voices: authors', translators', publishers', characters' voices; peripheral, official, counter-cultural voices; etc. In our studies on "Voice" we aim at relating many currently disparate concepts: translation and authorial style, characters' speech, re-translation, self-translation, publishers' cuts, plagiarism, censorship, etc.

   25-26 November - Intercompréhension - de l'Intraspécifique à l'Interspécifique
                               Bretanha, França

L’objectif de ce congrès est de réunir une communauté pluridisciplinaire autour des dimensions qui construisent l’intercompréhension dans son sens le plus large. Nous souhaitons explorer le rôle : de la présence, du temps, du contexte, des rituels, de la redondance, de l’acceptable et du refusable… à travers : les postures, les mimiques, le vocal, les émotions… et cela autour des trois entités que sont l'homme, l'animal et la machine. D’un point de vue méthodologique, ce congrès entend donner toute sa place à la diversité des approches. Le partage de connaissances et d'expériences entre chercheurs contribuera à passer des pratiques expérimentales vers des modèles pour développer des théories dans le domaine de l'intercompréhension.
