Meeting Description:

The Dipartimento di Studi Letterari, Linguistici e Comparati of the Università
di Napoli ‘L’Orientale’ and The GenText Research Group of the Universitat de
València organize jointly the second Valencia/Napoli Colloquium on Gender &
Translation. The main aim of this initiative is to periodically offer a broad
view of research on translation and gender/sexuality around the world, as it
is becoming a powerful and critical intersection for  number of disciplines
such as Translation Studies, Linguistics, Semiotics, Gender Studies, Cultural
Studies and Media Studies.  

After the 1st Valencia/Napoli Colloqiuim: Translating Sexual Equality which
took place in Valencia last October and gathered many scholars from all over
Europe, the 2nd Colloqiuim will take place in Naples next February and will be
focused on translating/interpreting LSP. Many studies have been devoted to the
languages of law, medicine, media, tourism, advertising, arts and business but
not through a gender perspective, similarly feminist translation theory and
practice has been only partially devoted to LSP and interpreting. 

The conference aims at closing this gap and invite scholars and translators to
send proposals (300 words) on any aspect of LSP translation and interpreting
from a gender perspective in different European languages and cultures.
