HomeHybridity: Text, Translation, Teaching
*  *  *

Published on Wednesday, April 20, 2022

Abstract

In our globalized world, life in or with several languages has become a socially accepted fact and is continuously gaining momentum, ranging from simple code switching to such complex and systematic phenomena as diglossia, multilingualism and hybrid teaching formats. This year's symposium will discuss the topic of hybridity from a research and methodological perspective in an effort to raise interest and concern for its complexity and prospects in a research and teaching environment. The discussion of the many facets of multilingualism in its translatory and methodological dimensions will hopefully contribute to greater knowledge and acceptance of this global phenomenon in our everyday lives.

Argument

In our globalized world, life in or with several languages has become a socially accepted fact and is continuously gaining momentum, ranging from simple code switching to such complex and systematic phenomena as diglossia, multilingualism and hybrid teaching formats. This year's symposium, organized by the ATRC (Saarbrücken / Heidelberg, Germany), will discuss the topic of hybridity from a research and methodological perspective in an effort to raise interest and concern for its complexity and prospects in a research and teaching environment. The discussion of the many facets of multilingualism in its translatory and methodological dimensions will hopefully contribute to greater knowledge and acceptance of this global phenomenon in our everyday lives.

We suggest T&I presentations in (but not limited to) the following topics:

  • Hybridity as a linguistic and social phenomenon
  • Hybridity as a translation problem in literature
  • Diglossia, Multilingualism and Intercultural Communication
  • Target Multilingualism – do we need any more translations and interpretations?
  • Reception – Transfer – Reproduction: Hybrid text, hybrid Translation?

Presentations on FLP and hybridity are welcome in (but not limited to) the following areas:

  • Translation as a learning objective in Foreign Language Pedagogy (FLP)
  • Professional and personal challenges for FLP teachers in a hybrid world
  • Advanced Training for practicing FLP teachers
