Meeting Description:

We are pleased to invite you to the PhD conference that will take place at the
Department of Interpreting and Translation in Forlì on the 20 December 2022.

The event is organised by the PhD Course in Translation, Interpreting and
Intercultural Studies of the Department of Interpreting and Translation. We
welcome contributions from PhD students, early researchers and young scholars
from different backgrounds and specialized in a wide range of fields of study.

The conference aims to consider and discuss the topic of centre and periphery,
as well as to create an interdisciplinary and inclusive perspective. It is
conceived as an opportunity for members of the academic community of the
University of Bologna and of other universities to meet, discuss, and bring
together research directions very distant from each other.

The focus is put on the concepts of centre and periphery, which are widely
used to interpret many phenomena in various fields and disciplines. At a time
in history when both global balance and the ways of interpreting reality are
being questioned and redrawn, it is worth reflecting on the concepts of centre
and periphery. As argued by Capuzzo (2006:1), ''the 'peripheries' have come
into play as main characters of a relationship of mutual influence with the
'centres' and new categories have been created to describe the specific
features of these relationships''. Peripheries have transformed the
“centre-periphery binary scheme that has carried out a normative function in
the schemes of knowledge” [our translation]. With this broad notion, the
relation between centre and periphery is interpreted in a physical and
metaphorical sense: a relationship which can be understood not only as
geographical or social distance and opposition, but also as a representation
of the opposition between inclusion and exclusion from a political,
ideological, linguistic, literary, cultural and communicative perspective.

The conference is therefore designed as an opportunity to reflect on the
relationship between centre and periphery from multiple perspectives. Proposed
contributions may include, but are not limited to, the following themes:

- Relationship between centre and periphery in a physical and metaphorical
sense, as a geographical and social opposition between dominance and
subalternity
- Centre and periphery as symbols of inclusion and exclusion from a political,
ideological, linguistic, literary, cultural and communicative perspective
- Centre and periphery of language as a reflection between
variants/dialects/minority languages
- Translation as the periphery of writing
- The figure of the ad hoc or non-professional interpreter as the periphery of
the interpreting world
- Centre and periphery as Global North and Global South
- Centre as literary canon, periphery as satellite literature (women's
literature, translated literature, queer literature...)
- Environmental humanities on the relationship between humanity-centre and
nature-periphery
- Elimination of the concept of centre and periphery

Each speech must have a maximum duration of 15 minutes and may be accompanied
by a Power Point presentation or similar. Presentations and speeches can be in
Italian or English, at personal discretion. In addition, we would like to
encourage group presentations. For group proposals, the length of the speech
may be extended to 20 minutes in total.


Call for Papers:

Please send an abstract in Italian or English, according to the language of
the paper, of a maximum of 300 words, excluding the bibliography. In addition
to the abstract, we kindly ask you to indicate:
- Title of intervention
- Five key words
- A short biographical note (100 words max.)

Deadline for submission of abstracts: 10 September 2022
Notification of acceptance: 10 October 2022
