Subject: Call for Papers: Radical Bilingualism: Spanish/English language mixing and its translation in film and TV series

 
The volume Radical Bilingualism and its translation in film and TV series will
provide an innovative overview of interdisciplinary perspectives on the use of
Spanish and English and their in-betweens in contemporary audiovisual texts.
Central to this volume is the connection between language use and the US
Latinx community. In this volume we consider terminology like code-switching,
language mixing, Spanglish, translanguaging and heteroglossia with an interest
in fostering a more cohesive understanding of the bilingual language use of
global Latinx communities as portrayed in film and TV series. The central aim
of this book is to examine language mixing and its translation focusing on the
use of interdisciplinary theories to highlight current research in this newly
emerging field. The volume seeks to bring together linguistics, cultural and
translation studies as they intersect with Latinx studies. 

Organization

The book is currently under consideration with Routledge.. Each contribution
will be peer-reviewed by at least one external and one internal reviewer. At
least one review will represent a perspective from a different research
community. Reviews will be double-blind in the first round. Upon acceptance of
the contribution, however, reviewers will be invited to publish a short
commentary on the basis of their review, which will be published together with
the article under their name. This way, we hope that both the process of
making the book as well as the book itself will foster dialogue among
participating researchers.

We invite contributions that address the following key empirical properties of
Spanish/English bilingualism and its translation in audiovision texts:

Part 1. Spanish/English code-switching in contemporary films and TV series
Part 2. Hybrid Identities and their Interpretation
Part 3. Spanish, English and Radical bilingualism and their translations

Invitation for contributions 

We invite researchers interested in contributing to submit a short abstract
(300 words max., excluding references) to the contact emails below. Please
also indicate the section of the volume (cf. above) in which you would like to
see your article, and five keywords.

Deadline for the submission of abstracts: March 15, 2023
Notification of acceptance: May 1, 2023
Authors of accepted abstracts will be invited to submit a full manuscript by
October 1st, 2023. Decisions on the final acceptance of manuscripts will be
based on the outcome of the peer review process.
