Meeting Description:

The Institutes and Departments for Translation and Interpreting, established 
in Europe after World War II, are celebrating their fiftieth and sixtieth-year 
jubilees and the new academic discipline of translation studies is already half 
a century old. This is a good occasion and a good reason to take stock of the 
development and the state of art of translation studies. 

After the successful 10-year long tradition of the 'International Innsbruck 
Lectures on Translation Studies' and the International Summer Schools 
'SummerTrans', held in Innsbruck, Saarbrücken and Vienna the 1st 
TRANSLATA International Conference aims to have a new impact on 
fundamental translation and interpreting research whilst offering a forum for 
broad exchange between researchers, teachers and practitioners. On the 
basis of recent and new research results as well as lively discussion between 
established researchers and newcomers to the discipline, the conference 
hopes to provide new insights into the different kinds of translation and 
interpreting activities, at the same time gaining ground on the way to 
scientifically-based quality standards in translation and interpreting.
