Ragusa and Montalbano: translating Camilleri's regionalised voices in AVT
The literary translation of Camilleri's series of detective stories featuring
Inspector Montalbano are the subject of annual seminars (2013-2016) organised
by the University of Cagliari. The forthcoming  conference, Ragusa and
Montalbano: translating Camilleri's regionalised voices in AVT, is also  a
response to those studies and research. However, Montalbano's global fame is
undeniably closely linked to the incredible success of the television series
produced by Palomar for RAI TV. Ever since its first season in 1999,
Montalbano/Zingaretti's success has equally been the success of Ragusa, and
the Ibleo territory in general. The University of Catania's School of Foreign
Languages and Literatures situated in Ragusa Ibla aims to foster in-depth
explorations on the theme of Montalbano, that pivot around three main areas of
research:

1) Audiovisual translation:

Possible Themes:

Culture-bound words
The 'language' of Catarella
Translation of linguistic varieties
Authenticity
Voice-over and regionalisms
Dubbing practices, diction and regional vocalisation
Accessibility and identity
Taboo words and swear words, translational strategies and solutions.

Keynote Speakers:

Federico Federici (University College London, UK)
Christine Heiss (Università degli Studi di Bologna-Forlì, IT): In memoriam
Rosa Maria Bollettieri und Giovanni Nadiani 
Marie-Noëlle Guillot (University of East Anglia, UK)
Césareo Calvo Rigual (Universidad de Valencia, SP)

2) Cinetourism (Cinema, tourism and territory):

Possible Themes:

Audiovisual products as promoters of territory, culture, and tourism
Film Commissions and Territory
Real identity and cinematographic location
Tourism and sustainability.

Keynote Speaker:

Alessandro Rais (General Manager of the Special Department for Cinema and
Audiovisual products - Region of Sicily) 

3) Montalbano and the Italian 'Detective' literary tradition:

Possible Themes:

Camilleri's Detective novels contextualised within the history of the Italian
'giallo': recurring themes and innovations
Narrative structures of Camilleri's Detective stories
The characters system in Camilleri's Detective stories
Time, space and narrative discourse in Camilleri's Detective stories  
Representation of places in Camilleri's Detective stories
Camilleri's generation:  novels and Detective stories inspired by Camilleri.
