Subject: Translation / Leonardo (Jrnl)

 
Full Title: Leonardo 


Linguistic Field(s): Translation 

Call Deadline: 01-Oct-2020 

Call for Papers:

Scope:
This special section of Leonardo welcomes submissions that explore empirical
translation as a method or approach in different disciplines of the arts
and/or sciences and how empirical translation in search of patterns, norms and
laws relates to creativity in arts and innovation in sciences.

Translation is both an art and science, and the rise of natural language
processing and data science has enabled the development of a range of
innovative translation technologies from healthcare and disability support to
global travel, mass entertainment, international sports events and
multilingual social media. Technological advances in translation have
sustained global language and cultural diversity and helped preserve our
contemporary ecosystems and our cultural identities. Translation of art seeks
to give meaning and life to the original art when translated to and reproduced
in distinct target social, cultural and language systems. The sciences entail
repeated ''translations'' of the core set of natural principles and laws in
different physical and natural environments at vast spatial and temporal
scales.

Translatability of arts mirrors the concepts of replicability and
reproducibility in sciences; that is, the core set of artistic values,
aesthetics can be interpreted and appreciated by different cultural, language
and social groups living in different historical periods and geographic
locations. That is to say, the development of human societies and knowledges,
either in the artistic or the scientific spheres, entail repeated
'translation' exercises in search of truth (science) and beauty (art). In
translation, a fundamental empirical activity, art and science form a
synthesis--the ''theory of knowledge'' that Leonardo da Vinci championed.

Manuscript Submissions:
We seek Leonardo manuscript submissions of up to 3,500 words. For detailed
instructions for manuscript and art preparation, visit Information for Journal
Authors. To submit a completed manuscript, upload at Editorial Express.

You are welcome to contact the editor (christine.ji at sydney.edu.au) to discuss
your paper before submission.
