Meeting Description:

TRANSLATA IV is the fourth in a series of triennial conferences on Translation
and Interpreting Studies at the University of Innsbruck. This conference
series was established in 2011 and, from the outset, has always been one of
the largest conferences on Translation and Interpreting Studies worldwide.
TRANSLATA is a conference devoted to basic research in translatology with the
principle aim of re-establishing translation proper (= professional
translation and interpreting) as the core focus of Translation and
Interpreting Studies. TRANSLATA IV is dedicated to its founding father
Professor Emeritus Lew N. Zybatow, who celebrated his 70th birthday in 2021. 

The theme of TRANSLATA IV should reflect our interest in the rapid
developments in the era 
of digitalisation that have changed the practice of translation for a number
of years now. These changes also give rise to the question of how the field of
Translation and Interpreting Studies can and should react to these
developments. Under the main theme of “Future Perspectives in Translation and
Intepreting Studies”, TRANSLATA IV provides those concerned with the
theoretical, practical, didactical, and commercial aspects of translation with
a forum to discuss current questions and problems in the field of translation
and the training of translators and interpreters. Thus, fundamental topical
questions in theoretical and applied studies of translation related to the
following areas of research will be the main focus of this conference: 
- Translation Studies and Linguistics (Heads of section: P. ten Hacken, L.
Giacomini & R. Panocová),
- Translation Studies and Cognition (Head of section: A. Trklja),
- Translation Studies and Technology (Heads of section: P. Sandrini & A.
Trklja & A.M. Mor),
- Translation Studies and Cultural Studies (Heads of section: W. Pöckl & A.
Gipper),
- Translation Studies & Teaching (Heads of section: A. Schmidhofer & M.A.
Recio Ariza) and
- Translation Studies & the Economy (Heads of section: P. Sandrini & U.
Wienen).

The conference language is German. However, we also welcome contributions in
English, French, Italian Spanish and Russian. 

The organisers are committed to holding at least a part of the conference in
Innsbruck. However, the final decision can only be made at the beginning of
September after the final list of participants and their preference has been
determined. Furthermore, the decision must comply with the sanitary rules of
the moment.
