'Image, Music, Text…?' Translating Multimodalities
Journal of Specialised Translation, Issue n° 20 January 2013
Edited by Margaret Clarke, Caterina Jeffcote and Carol O'Sullivan
 
JoSTrans is an electronic, peer-reviewed journal bringing non-literary 
translation issues to the fore. Published bi-annually, it includes articles, 
reviews and streamed interviews by translation scholars and professionals.

The Journal of Specialised Translation will publish a special issue on 
translation and multimodality in 2013. Translation is usually thought of as 
being about the printed word, but in today's multimodal environment 
translators must take account of other signifying elements too. Words may 
interact with still and moving images, diagrams, music, typography or page 
layout. Multimodal meaning-making is deployed for promotional, political, 
expressive and informative purposes which must be understood and 
accounted for by technical translators, literary translators, copywriters, 
subtitlers, localisers and other language professionals.

Contributions are invited on any aspect of the area. Suggested topics might 
relate to but are not limited to:

·        Image and text: advertising, visual communication
·        Technical writing, diagrams, layout and document design
·        Illustration, bindings, typography and paratexts
·        Comics, cartoons, graphic novels, intersemiotic translation
·        Song, opera and music in translation
·        (Poly)semiotic interferences and intertextualities
·        Written to be spoken; the audiomedial text
·        Performance, staging, movement; sign language interpreting
·        Subtitling, dubbing, surtitling, mise-en-scène, audiodescription, 
videogame localisation
·        Paralinguistic issues and non-verbal communication
·        Multimodal spaces: museums, tourist sites, the World Wide Web

We welcome a broad range of approaches to translation, including 
presentations with an empirical, critical, pedagogical, technological or 
professional focus. We welcome contributions of full length papers and 
shorter, more practical pieces for the Translator's Corner section of the 
Journal.The editors of this special issue are Margaret Clarke, Caterina 
Jeffcote and Carol O'Sullivan 

All contributions, articles (up to 7000 words), reviews (500-800 words), and 
shorter pieces are to be sent to margaret.clarke at port.ac.uk by 1 April 2012.
