Meeting Description:

This conference sets out to bring a diachronic perspective to the
development of audiovisual translation, through a consideration of
historical practices and their influence on the contemporary context.
It is hoped that this will enable AVT researchers and the industry to
have greater insight into future developments in the field. This
conference aims to widen the research horizons of AVT to include not
only Media and Television Studies, but also Localization and Computer
Science, Translation Technology and Machine Translation.The need for
AVT research to move beyond its comfort zone and engage in a more
interdisciplinary dialogue has been pointed out, among others, by
Pérez González (2019: 2). This international conference will provide a
space for discussion and debate on the role and function of
translators in the encounter/clash between tradition and innovation,
between technology and human translation, between individual and
collective translation practices. The symposium will explore the
interaction between human and computer-assisted translation practices
in the era of Machine Translation, Artificial Intelligence, and Cloud
Dubbing and their impact on translation quality as well as
translators’ life quality.
