Meeting Description:

The Faculty of English at Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań is
organizing the seventh edition of the Using Corpora in Contrastive and
Translation Studies conference series in 2023.

UCCTS conference is a biennial international conference which was
launched by Richard Xiao in 2008 to provide an international forum for
the exploration of the theoretical and practical issues pertaining to
the creation and use of corpora in contrastive and
translation/interpreting studies.

Since 2008 UCCTS conference series that took place, among other, in
Louvain-la-Neuve (2018) and Bertinoro (2021) has played a key role in
advancing contrastive and translation studies by giving scholars of
the sister disciplines the opportunity to meet and engage in
discussions on research outcomes and ideas on how to effectively
apply, enhance and further develop corpus methods to move both fields
forward. A selection of papers presented at UCCTS so far appeared in
special issues of journals important in both fields or edited volumes
published, for example, by Routledge or Bloomsbury.

The seventh edition of the UCCTS conference will be held on 10-12 July
2023 in Poznań, Poland.

The call for papers will be announced in early autumn of 2022.

For the moment the conference is planned to be a fully on-site event.

Conference theme: Capturing conceptual complexity with updated
theories and enriched corpus designs

We particularly welcome contrastive and translation/interpreting
studies proposals using corpus methods and featuring the following:

•       new or remodeled theoretical frameworks relevant to
corpus-based contrastive and translation/interpreting studies
•       quantitative approaches in corpus-based contrastive and
translation/interpreting studies, in particular with
multi-methodological designs and advanced statistical modeling
•       interdisciplinary approaches to translation/interpreting and
contrastive studies
•       triangulation: combined use of corpus data and other sources
of data
•       register/genre variation
•       constrained language varieties
•       sign language interpreting corpora
•       intermodal, multimodal, and multiple translation/interpreting
corpora
•       parallel and comparable corpora in translation/interpreting
and foreign language teaching and learning
•       bilingual lexicography and terminology/terminography
•       perspectives on corpus use in the language industry
•       translation/interpreting quality assessment
•       using corpora and technology in remote interpreting
