BELTRANS: Book translation in multilingual states (1945-2024)
Practical information
- When? 28 and 29 November 2024
- Where? KBR
- Contact: beltrans@kbr.be
This conference is part of the BELTRANS-project regarding Intra-Belgian (literary) book translations since 1970, funded by the Belgian Science Policy (BELSPO) Research Programme Brain 2.0 and by the Research Foundation – Flanders (FWO), and is organised in association with Royal Library of Belgium, KU Leuven and UCLouvain.
In this conference, we seek to explore how books circulate through translation in multilingual states. In relation to this central question, a number of sub-questions will be raised, including but not limited to:
- What are the flows of book translation in a multilingual state (direction, evolution)?
- How can we collect and map data on intra-state translation flows? What databases and sources are available for this purpose and what are their advantages and disadvantages?
- What role do branding and positioning play in translation flows in multilingual states, particularly as it relates to different genres, themes, authors and mediators?
- Do hierarchies or other kinds of relationships between languages play a role in intra-state book translation flows?
- What is the relationship between book translation in a multilingual state and language proficiency?
- What is the relationship between book translation and (cultural) policy in multilingual states? Which institutions play a role and to what political ends?
- What is the role of third actors (such as other regions, linguistic or cultural communities, or states) in shaping the translation flows of a multilingual state? Can translation flows be isolated in the context of a single state or should a transnational context be taken into account?
