Call for Proposals

Theme: Culture-Crossing Contact Zones: Translation in a Globalized World
As we have become self-conscious about the historicity of our central assumptions and practices, translation, is now seen as an interested activity, susceptible to political motives and power relationships. At MC, an institution of global multiplicity, it is clear that each translation also transposes a culture. At Confluence this year, we hope to examine translation as a culture-crossing contact zone in a globalizing world. 

Proposals are due by midnight Friday, March 15, 2024.
Please submit Confluence Conference Proposal Submission form below.

Proposers are expected to be informed about decisions by Friday, March 22, 2024. To achieve a well-rounded conference, the organizers may solicit proposals at any time or may ask proposers to alter or consolidate presentations.
