(http://www.duo.uni.lodz.pl). The ZHAW session will be hosted by the Institute
of Translation and Interpreting from 3-5 September 2020 in Winterthur and
approaches applied aspects of the theme (www.zhaw.ch/iued/duo).


Call for papers – ZHAW session

The ZHAW session of the Duo Colloquium 2020 has an industry-oriented focus on
the theme Contextuality in Translation and Interpreting. Contextuality can be
understood at any level, from the geopolitical to the textual, and embraces
both academic and professional considerations of translational and
interpreting phenomena. The sub-themes of the Duo Colloquium 2020 concern the
context(s) and/or decontextualisation in translation and interpreting theory
and practice, embracing both academic and professional considerations of
meaning in translation and interpreting from a variety of disciplinary,
interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary perspectives.

The sub-themes of the ZHAW session include the interface of translation and/or
interpreting with:
 - agency and empowerment
 - corpus and/or text linguistics
 - domain specificity (e.g. economics, law, science, medicine, religion)
 - education or training
 - lexicography or terminology
 - metaphor and/or phraseology
 - modality and/or media
 - (new) professional roles
 - quality assessment
 - situated practice(s)
 - sociotechnical systems
 - technology

.pdf format by using the submit button on the conference website
(www.zhaw.ch/iued/duo).

− the title of the paper

− the sub-theme(s) the abstract relates to (see list above)
− a 250-300 word abstract (excluding references)
