Lecturers Miriam Locher (miriam.locher@unibas.ch, Assessor)
Content Students are welcome to attend the 13th meeting of the international "Symposium on (Im)Politeness"/the 7th meeting of the biannual "iMean" (interaction and meaning) conference on the 'pragmatics of translation' on 24-26 June 2021 in Basel. Scholars will present papers on translation outcomes and processes which highlight a pragmatic angle of understanding the transfer of language phenomena across cultures and intra-culturally. Scholars approach translation from a broad perspective, including written textual translation from source to target language as well as other modalities such as signing, simultaneous translation or audiovisual translation by professional and lay people. Students will be asked to attend the conference and review a selection of papers in light of preparatory texts.
Bibliography A selection of preparatory texts will be made available in ADAM.
