of gender and translation from the perspective of linguistics. Our primary aim
is to explore why gender (in its various definitions) is relevant for
translation. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: 4.45pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Garamond;" lang="EN-GB">This issue intends to provide a wide range of language
coverage and of linguistic issues that may appeal to readers of diverse
linguistic backgrounds. It also fosters discussion and debate about the
implications of different definitions of gender and different approaches to
analyzing the production and interpretation of texts and translations, with a
focus on political or ideological issues. We welcome research on gender and
translation employing a range of linguistic approaches which establishes
interdisciplinary dialogue from a variety of perspectives, including
anthropology, education, semiotics, pragmatics, philosophy, psychology,
sociology, communication studies, queer studies, Critical Discourse Analysis,
postcolonial studies or literary and cultural studies among many others.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
