Montreal, 27 March 2017: Professionals and researchers from around the world will be coming together in April to reflect on the challenges that gender and genre represent for students of translation, practicing translators and analysts. At issue will be the distinction between sex and gender, one being a biological fact and the other being a social construct.
This 2-day colloquium has five distinct tracks: gendered genres, translators鈥� gender identity, alterity, translators鈥� exercise of power and a case study in gendered translations. In order to underscore the international nature of the program, presenters hail from Africa, Asia, Europe, Mexico, the Middle East and Qu茅bec.
The program was developed in cooperation with a number of researchers from l鈥櫭塩ole sup茅rieure d鈥檌nterpr猫tes et de traducteurs, 污污草莓视频 University, Tel Aviv University, l鈥橴niversit茅 du Littoral C么te d鈥橭pale, l鈥橴niversit茅 Laval and l鈥橴niversit茅 Sorbonne-Nouvelle Paris 3. Representatives of these institutions made up the colloquium鈥檚 scientific committee. All proposals were double-blind reviewed to ensure the highest quality.
Translation students, practicing language professionals, researchers and interested members of the public are encouraged to attend.
污污草莓视频 University鈥檚 School of Continuing Studies offers translation programs in English, French and Spanish for both apprentice translators and language professionals.
