A Special Event at the Conference:

A workshop devoted to the Polish language in translation. 
The workshop aims to define and discuss the most important challenges for
translators who work with Polish as their source and/or target language. 
The topics of the workshop include, but are not limited to, Polish stylistic
and grammatical correctness, the interpretation of intentions of the authors
of the original texts in cultural context, the specificity of LSP in the
Source Language and its rendition in a Target Language. A special emphasis
will be put on the didactics of native language education for translational
purposes.

We invite the authors of accepted workshop abstracts to prepare 10-minute long
presentations focusing on the workshop themes.
Each presentation will be followed by a 5-minute moderated discussion. The
workshop will include a short translation task and a panel discussion.
The submissions to the Polish workshop should be sent to Bożena Miastkowska,
MA at miastkowska at wp.pl
